We believe Jesus Christ assembled and organized His church during His earthly ministry. He has promised to protect it until He comes again.
The New Testament church, according to the divine purpose and plan, is a visible, local, organized body; that is composed of baptized believers. This congregation is made up of God's born again saints associated together by covenant of faith and fellowship in the gospel. This body is independent and sovereign, yet dependent solely on its Head, Jesus Christ. The church holds to the Bible as its final rule of faith and practice.
The church supports itself and its ministries by the tithes and offerings of its membership.
The church has two offices being the pastor and deacons and two ordinances being baptism and the Lord's Supper.
The church meets on the Lord's day, the first day of the week for the purpose of worship and ministry.
