1 Corinthians 14:40 KJV

Doctrinal Statement

I. Theology & The Godhead
  • The Trinity: Belief in one God existing in three distinct, eternal persons (Father, Son, Holy Spirit), each with their own body, intellect, and will. Rejection of partialism, polytheism, and oneness.
    • Scripture: Genesis 1:26-27, John 1:1-3, Colossians 2:9, 1 John 5:7
  • The Deity of Christ: Jesus is God in the flesh; completely God and completely man.
    • Scripture: 1 Timothy 3:16, 1 John 3:16, 1 John 5:20
  • The Holy Spirit: The Holy Spirit is a person with a body, will, and intellect, not merely a force or energy.
    • Scripture: John 15:26, Acts 5:3-4, Romans 8:11, Ephesians 4:30
  • The Virgin Birth: Jesus was begotten by the Holy Spirit and born of Mary. Though the Catholic Church teaches she was perpetually a virgin, the Bible teaches that Mary had other children with her spouse Joseph after Jesus was born.
    • Scripture: Matthew 1:23, Matthew 13:55-56
  • Salvation by Grace: Salvation is by grace through faith alone, not of works (such as baptism or church attendance). It is received by calling upon the Lord.
    • Scripture: Ephesians 2:8-9, John 3:16, Romans 10:9-10, Romans 10:13
  • Eternal Security: Once a person is saved, they are always saved and cannot lose their salvation.
    • Scripture: John 5:24, John 10:27-29, Ephesians 1:13
  • Universal Provision: We reject Calvinism (TULIP) and believe that God desires everyone to be saved.
    • Scripture: 1 Timothy 4:10, Titus 2:11, 1 John 2:2
  • The Eternal State: Belief in a literal, physical Hell and Lake of Fire for the unsaved. Rejection of annihilationism or hell as “mere separation.”
    • Scripture: Mark 9:43-48, Luke 16:22-24, Revelation 14:10, 20:10, 20:14-15
  • The King James Bible: Belief that the KJV is the inspired and preserved Word of God for English-speaking people. Rejection of all modern translations.
    • Scripture: Psalm 12:6-7, Psalm 119:89, Matthew 24:35, 1 Peter 1:23
  • Final Authority: The Bible is the final authority on all matters; anything taught in the KJV is believed.
    • Scripture: 2 Timothy 3:16
  • The Local Church: Belief in the local assembly of believers as the only biblical model; rejection of the “universal church” concept.
    • Scripture: Matthew 28:18-20, Ephesians 4:16, Titus 1:5
  • Autonomy: The local church is independent of denominations. Jesus is the head, and the pastor is the human leader. Rejection of Popes, Boards, or external Presidents.
    • Scripture: Acts 14:23, Acts 20:28, 1 Peter 5:1-3
  • Baptism: An act of obedience and a symbolic picture of Christ’s death and resurrection; not required for salvation.
    • Scripture: Acts 8:36-38, Acts 16:30-31, Romans 6:3-5

  • Sanctity of Life: Abortion is murder; opposition to birth control that ends life after fertilization.
    • Scripture: Genesis 1:28, Jeremiah 1:5
  • Sexual Morality: Sodomy (homosexuality) is an abomination. It is a sign of someone who is a reprobate and has been rejected by God and no longer has the ability to be saved. They are not welcome in our local church.
    • Scripture: Leviticus 20:13, Romans 1:32
  • Holy Living: Opposition to worldliness and the Charismatic/Ecumenical movements; commitment to a separated life.
    • Scripture: James 4:4, 1 John 2:15-16

    • Scripture: Matthew 5:17-18, 2 Timothy 3:16
