The Redemption of Mankind.

We believe all people are faced with a sin problem because of the first man’s (Adam’s) willful disobedience to God. As a result of Adam’s fall, all people are born in a sinful condition. And while young children are covered by grace until they reach an age of understanding and accountability, everyone else needs redemption provided only through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Only by receiving His forgiveness and accepting Him as Lord, can people be forgiven of their sins. (Genesis 1:26, 27; 2:17, 3:6; Romans 5:12-19)

Cardinal Doctrines.

Four of the 16 beliefs are Cardinal Doctrines. They are considered the major tenets. The four are:

1. Salvation through Jesus Christ who provided the supreme sacrifice for sin. (John 3:3, 16, 17; Romans 10:13; Ephesians 2:8, 9)

2. Divine healing for the sick as provided in Christ’s death (James 5:14-16).

3. The second coming of Christ as He returns for those who have accepted Him
(1 Thessalonians 4:15, 17; 1 Corinthians 15:51, 52)

4. Baptism in the Holy Spirit for empowering believers (Acts 1:8, 2:4, 17, 18, 38, 39)
