THE TENETS

We believe in the divine inspiration and authority of the Holy Scriptures. We believe that the Bible is infallible in its declaration, final in its authority, all-sufficient in its provisions and comprehensive in its sufficiency (2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21).

We believe that marriage is a sacred union established and ordained by God as a lifelong, intimate relationship between a man and a woman, each biologically defined at birth. We affirm that God instituted marriage primarily for mutual support, companionship, and comfort, as well as for the honorable procreation of children and their upbringing in love, obedience to the Lord, and responsible citizenship.

We believe that humanity’s need for a Savior has been met in the person of Jesus Christ, because of His Deity, Virgin Birth, Sinless Life, Atoning Death Resurrection, His Abiding Intercession, and His Second Coming to judge the living and the dead.

We believe that the healing of sickness and disease is provided for God’s people in the atonement. The Church is, however, not opposed to soliciting the help of qualified medical practitioners
