Our Position:

- God's direct creation of man and man's fall by sin so that he is spiritually dead.
- The incarnation, virgin birth, and deity of the Lord Jesus Christ.
- The vicarious atonement by the death and shed blood of Jesus Christ on the cross.
- The bodily resurrection, ascension into heaven, and the premillennial return of Christ.
- The necessity of salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.
