We believe that the Holy Spirit is the agent of the new birth through conviction and regeneration and that He seals, indwells, and baptizes every believer into the Body of Christ at the moment of conversion. We believe that the Holy Spirit fills, empowers, and distributes service gifts to believers, but that sign gifts were restricted to the Apostolic Period.  (John 3:5, Ephesians 1:13, Romans 8:9, I Cor 12:13, Ephesians 5:18, 4:11-12, Romans 12:6-8, Hebrews 2:3-4, Ephesians 2:20, I Cor 13:8-13) 7. We believe that man was created in the image of God, that he sinned and thereby incurred not only physical death but also spiritual death, which is separation from God, and that all human beings are born with a sinful nature and are sinners in thought, word, and deed.  (Genesis 1:26-27, 3:1-6, Romans 5:12, 19, 3:10-13, Titus 1:15-16) 8. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died as the substitutionary sacrifice for all men. The blood atonement He made was unlimited in its potential. It is limited only in its application, effectively saving those who are brought by the Holy Spirit to repentance and faith. (Isaiah 53:4-11, II Corinthians 5:14-21, I John 2:1-2, II Peter 2:1, I Timothy 4:10, John 3:5-8, 16:8-13) 9. We believe that all who receive by faith the Lord Jesus Christ are born again of the Holy Spirit and thereby become children of God. (John 1:12-13, 3:3-16, Acts 16:31, Ephesians 2:8-9) We are a Bible believing, evangelical, independent Christian Church that believes the fundamental doctrines of the historic Christian faith.
