About Us:

We are not a "Creedal church," but the following can be said about our beliefs:

GOD: He is our Creator and Heavenly Father.

JESUS: He is the Son of God; was born of a virgin; lived to share with mankind the will and purpose of God; died to save us from sin and eternal punishment: lives in heaven to intercede for our sins; will return again to receive all Christians unto himself.

HOLY SPIRIT: He is the third Person of the Trinity; He is a personality; He can be grieved, rejected, or resisted; He operates through the Word in the conversion of the soul; He strengthens, guides, and gives wisdom to the believer.

BIBLE: Old and New Testaments are the inspired Word of God; the New Testament is the Christian's book of authority; the New Testament is the Old Testament "revealed."

SIN: All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God; acceptance and obedience to Christ are the remedies of sin.

History:

We are a church that practices "believers' baptism by immersion." We believe that one must accept the gospel of his own free will and then follow in the obedience to the command of baptism.We practice immersion because the Greek word for baptism is "baptizo" which means "to dip, or to immerse." This was the form of baptism in the first century church and we continue to honor the practice.

We ask that all members of our fellowship be immersed believers in Jesus Christ. We recognize the immersion of other fellowships, but we ask that those who have undergone sprinkling, pouring, or no baptism, be immersed in obedience to the New Testament command before full membership can be granted. (We have many who worship and work with us as "non-members.)

The early Christian Church movement proclaimed "We are not the only Christians, but we are Christians only." We will not deny the Christian life of those from other churches that do not practice immersion. But we believe it is important to maintain the biblical form of baptism as our rule of faith and practice.
