What we believe

We believe the Bible is God’s word. God Himself is the Author. In the Old and New Testaments He reveals His will to us. 1 Thessalonians 2:13 – For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye [...]

We believe in an eternal, omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient God. He is the Creator, Ruler, and Preserver of the entire universe.  Genesis 17:1 – And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be [...]

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is the express image of His Father.  Hebrews 1:1-3, 8 – God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, [...]

We believe the Holy Spirit has been at work from the beginning and is constantly active in redemption.  Genesis 1:2 – And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.  Psalm [...]

We believe that on the sixth day of creation God created man in His own image, perfect, and with a free will.  Genesis 1:26-28 – And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over [...]

We believe that, through his disobedience to the divine law, man brought sin into the world. Genesis 2:16, 17; 3:6. Thus man’s nature became evil. The result of sin is death. Romans 5:12 – Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon [...]

We believe that the Ten Commandments are perfect and that they are valid guidelines for the life and conduct of all men. Ecclesiastes 12:13 – Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. Matthew 5:17, 18 [...]

We believe that the fourth commandment, along with the others, is unchangeable and valid for all people. The Sabbath day was instituted by God after six days of creation, blessed and hallowed, and distinguished in that God rested on it. It was given as a memorial of creation and a [...]

We believe that God instituted marriage in paradise and that it is blessed and sanctified by Him. “Thus the institution has for its originator the Creator of the universe.. It is one of the two institutions that, after the Fall, Adam brought with him beyond the gates of Paradise.” – Patriarchs [...]

We believe that the prophecy of Daniel 7:25 -“think to change times and laws“-has been fulfilled. The second commandment, which forbids honoring and worshiping images, was removed from the Ten Commandments. The Sabbath of the fourth commandment was changed through the unauthorized introduction of the first day of the week, Sunday, as [...]
