We believe there is one God eternally existing in three persons; the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. 

(Genesis l:1; Matthew 28:19; John 10:30, I John 5:7-8)

We believe that the Holy Bible, sixty-six books of Old and New Testament, is the verbally inspired and infallible, authoritative Word of God and that God gave the words of Scripture by inspiration without error in the original autographs (II Timothy 3:16–17, II Peter 1:21). 

God promises that He will preserve His Word; Jesus said, “My words shall not pass away” (Matthew 24:35). We believe that God has kept that promise by preserving His infallible Word in the traditional Hebrew and Greek manuscripts and that the Authorized Version (KJV) is an accurate English translation of the preserved Word of God.

We believe that Jesus Christ, the Second Person of the Trinity, became for mankind the physical manifestation of the Godhead (John 1:14, 14:9; Colossians 1:19). 

The earthly genealogy of Jesus may be traced through Joseph’s line to Abraham (Matthew 1:1–16) and through Mary’s line to Adam (Luke 3:23–38). 

We believe in His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, and His bodily resurrection.

We believe in the burial, bodily Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the tomb, and His ascension into Heaven (Mark 16:6, 19; I Corinthians 15:1–4).

We believe that the Holy Spirit lives in and enables the believer to walk in purity of life and submission to the will of God. 

(Romans 8:13-14; I Corinthians 3:16; I Corinthians 6:19-20; Ephesians 4:30; Ephesians 5:18) 

We affirm that the Holy Spirit is the Third Person of the Trinity, the Agent of conviction, regeneration, indwelling, baptism, sanctification, and illumination of all who are born into God’s family through Jesus Christ (John 3:5–6, Ephesians 1:13‑14).

We believe that God created the heavens and the earth in six literal days, and that God created all life (Genesis 1). 

We reject the man-made theory of evolution occurring over millions of years (Genesis 5, 11). 

We believe that God created man in His own image, but man chose to sin. Hence, all persons inherit a depraved nature and are lost sinners in need of salvation (Romans 3:10, 23).

We believe that Christ’s blood, shed on Calvary, is the only Atonement for man’s sin (John 14:6, 1 Peter 1:18–19, 1 John 1:9). 

We believe He was bodily raised from the dead for our justification. He will return visibly and bodily with power and great glory. Man is by nature and practice a sinner separated from God and can become God's child only by faith in Jesus Christ. Those who are thus born into God's family have eternal life, and those who are not, remain in spiritual death and will be separated from God forever in hell. 

We believe that salvation is a free gift of God for “whosoever will”; it is by grace, through faith, plus nothing, and believers are eternally secure (John 10:27–28, Ephesians 2:8–10). 

Salvation is received only by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and His finished work. “Whosoever will” may come to Christ; God does not pre-elect persons to heaven or hell. 

(Romans 4:25; Acts 1:11; Revelation 19:11; Romans 3:23; Ephesians 2:8-10; John 5:24-29; Romans  10:13, Revelation 22:17)

We believe the Scripture regarding Satan, who rebelled against God and was cast out of heaven with a host of angels who followed him (Isaiah 14:13–15). 

He introduced sin to Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden (Genesis 3:1–13). He continues to turn people from truth and against God (1 Peter 5:8). Eternal hell was created for Satan, his demons, and people who do not believe in the Lord Jesus Christ for salvation (Matthew 25:41, John 3:16, Revelation 20:15).

We believe that the will of God for all believers is to give evidence of sanctification through being honorable in all relations with others (Romans 12:1–2, 1 Thessalonians 4:3, James 1:27).

We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost: those that are saved unto the resurrection of eternal life in heaven, and those that are lost unto the resurrection of eternal damnation in a literal lake of fire (John 5:28–29; 1 Corinthians 15:12–20, 35–58; Revelation 20:10, 15).

We believe that all believers are united in the Body of Christ, called the Church. It is composed of all born-again believers who have by faith accepted Jesus Christ as Savior (Ephesians 2:8–22, 3:1–21, 4:4–16, 5:23–32). 

God has ordained the local church for the perpetuation of His truth and work in the world (1 Timothy 3:15). The two ordinances of the local church are baptism by immersion and a regular observance of the Lord’s Supper by believers (Matthew 28:19, Romans 8:9; I Corinthians 11:23-28; 12:12-14; Galatians 3:26-28).

We believe that God created man and woman in His image and instituted marriage between one who is genetically male and one who is genetically female (Genesis 2:18–24). 

Marriage is a sacred, exclusive union between a man and woman and serves as a picture of Christ’s relationship with the church (Matthew 19:3–12, Ephesians 5:22–33). 

We believe that God has commanded that sexual activity be exclusively reserved to a man and a woman who are legally married to each other; and that Scripture forbids any form of sexual immorality including adultery, fornication, homosexuality, bestiality, incest, the use of pornography, and those that are becoming more accepted in the culture and the courts, that are contradictory to God’s natural design and purpose for sexual activity. (Matthew 5:27–28, 15:18–20; 1 Corinthians 6:9–11 & 18, 7:1–5; Hebrews 13:4).

We believe that the term “marriage” has only one legitimate meaning, and that is marriage sanctioned by God, which joins one man and one woman in a single, covenantal union, as delineated by Scripture. Marriage ceremonies performed in any facility owned, leased, or rented by this corporation will be only those ceremonies sanctioned by God, joining one man with one woman as their genders were determined at birth. Whenever there is a conflict between the corporation’s position and any new legal standard for marriage, the corporation’s Statement of Faith, doctrines, and biblical positions will govern. 

(Gen. 2:24; Eph. 5:22-23; Mark 10:6-9; I Cor. 7:1-9) 

We believe that God has commanded that no intimate sexual activity be engaged in outside of marriage. We believe that any other type of sexual activity, identity, or expression that lies outside of this definition of marriage, including those that are becoming more accepted in the culture and the courts, are contradictory to God’s natural design and purpose for sexual activity. 

(Gen. 2:24, 19:5; Lev. 18:1-30; Rom. 1: 26-29; 1 Cor. 5:1, 6:9-10; 1 Thess. 4:1-8; Heb. 13:4)

We believe that God wonderfully and immutably creates each person as male or female. These two-distinct, complementary genders together reflect the image and nature of God and the rejection of one's biological gender is a rejection of the image of God within that person.

(Genesis 1:26-27)

We believe that human life begins at conception and that any unborn child is a living human being created in the image of God and must be valued and protected. 

(Job 3:16; Ps. 51:5, 139:13-16; Isa. 44:24, 49:1, 5; Jer. 1:5, 20:15-18; Luke 1:36, 44)

We believe that we should demonstrate love for others, not only toward fellow believers, but also toward those who are not believers, those who oppose us, and those who engage in sinful actions. We are to deal with those who oppose us graciously, gently, patiently, and humbly. God forbids the stirring up of strife, the taking of revenge, or the threat or use of violence as a means of resolving personal conflict or obtaining personal justice. Although God commands us to abhor sinful actions, we are to love and pray for any person who engages in such actions. 

(Lev. 19:18; Matt. 5:44-48; Luke 6:31; John 13:34-35; Rom. 12:9-10, 17-21, 13:8-10; Phil. 2:2-4; 2 Tim. 2:24-26; Titus 3:2; I Peter 3:8-9; 1 John 3:17-18)

We believe that children are a heritage from the Lord and must be absolutely protected within this corporation from any form of abuse or molestation. This corporation has zero tolerance for any person, whether Director, officer, paid employee, volunteer, or visitor, who abuses or molests a child. 

(Ps. 127:3-5; Matt. 18:6, 19:14; Mark 10:14)
