What We Believe By Pastor Tim Hitchcock |
|
The Scriptures |
|
We believe in the authority and sufficiency of the Holy Bible, consisting of the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testament, as originally written; that it is the product of holy men of God speaking as they were moved upon by the Holy Ghost. |
|
The True God |
|
We believe that there is one and only one living and true God; that He has chosen to reveal His character and attributes in the Holy Scriptures. |
|
God the Son |
|
We believe that the Son, Jesus Christ, is the second person of the Godhead; that He is equally divine with the Father and the Holy Spirit. |
|
God the Holy Spirit |
|
We believe that the Holy Spirit is a Divine Person-equal with the Father and the Son and of the same nature and substance. |
|
The Angels, the Devil, and Fallen Angels |
|
We believe that God is the only self-existent and almighty one; that God created angels to be ministering spirits; that they are mighty, but not almighty. |
|
Heaven and Hell |
|
We believe in the existence of both a literal heaven and hell. |
|
Salvation |
|
We believe that Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners; that He and He alone as virgin born Son of God can offer salvation to mankind; that He made our salvation possible by dying in our place (substitutionary atonement). |
