The word "Doctrine" simply means "teachings" Our teachings are:
We believe in the Apostles Doctrine. This is because we read in Acts 2:42, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers".
We believe there is only one God, who has revealed himself as our Father, in His Son Jesus Christ, and as the Holy Spirit. This is because we read in 1Timothy 3:16, "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, and received up into glory".
We believe the Bible is the word of God. This is because we read in II Timothy 3:16, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God".
We believe that all people are born in sin. This is because we read in Romans 3:23, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God".
We believe that repentance is the first step toward salvation. This is because Luke 24:47 says, "And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem".
We believe that baptism by immersion in water is the second essential step in salvation. This is because Acts 2:38 says, "Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized everyone of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost".
We believe that receiving the Holy Spirit is the final step toward initial salvation. This is because Romans 8:9 says, "But ye are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the spirit of Christ, he is none of his".
We believe that once you are saved you must continue in fellowship with God. This is because Romans 6:22 says, "But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life".
What Must You Decide?
1. Acknowledge that you are a sinner Romans 3:23 "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God"
2. Let Jesus be your Savior Matthew 1:21 "This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief"
3. Accept the Grace of God Ephesians 2:8 "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God."
4. Be born again - John 3:3-5 "Jesus answered and said unto him, verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he can not see the kingdom of God. "Nicodemus saith unto him, how can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?" Jesus answered, verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man to be born of water and of the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God." What Must You Do? 1. Believe in Jesus - James 2:19-20 "Thou believest that there is One God; thou does well: the devils also believe, and tremble. But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead" 2. Confess your Sins - 1 John 1:9 "If we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness" 3. Repent of your Sins - Luke 13:3 "I tell you nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish" 4. Be Baptized in Jesus Name - Acts 10:48 "And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord"
5. Receive the Holy Ghost - Acts 2:4 "And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak with other tongues"
6. Endure to the end - James 1:12 "Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive a crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him"
