The Authority Of The Scriptures
We believe that the KING JAMES VERSION is perfect, without error. We believe everything is to be judged by the standards set forth in the KJV. The KJV is more than just a mere “translation”, but that God inspired each and every verse, word, punctuation, etc. The KJV has been around for over 400 years and continually stands as the standard for English bibles (2 Tim 3:14-17; 2 Pet 1:19-21; Psa 12:6-7; Ecc 8:4; Psa 119:9-16, 42, 89, 98-105, 138:2).
We reject all other versions of “the bible”; they have been proven time and time again to be full of multiple errors, contradictions, and lots of times the changes made have zero manuscript support from any Greek and Hebrew texts. These new versions take lighter attitudes towards sin, removal of key doctrines; and ultimately leading people to the New Age and Roman Catholicism.
We believe that the word of God is living, the only source of real truth, and allows man to be saved (1 Pet 1:23-25; Mat 24:35; Heb 4:12-13; John 17:17; Rom 10:17).
We also believe that you should not add or subtract from the word of God and those that do are liars and are under God’s condemnation (Rev 22:18-19; Pro 30:5-6; Deu 4:2; 1 John 2:3-6; John 14:22-24).
The Godhead
When God created man, he created them after his image and likeness (Gen 1:26-27, 2:7, 5:1-3). Man has a body, soul, and spirit (1 The 5:23; Gen 2:7; Heb 4:12). The Bible teaches that God is one person (Job 13:7-8; Heb 1:1-4). This one person consists of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost (1 Joh 5:7; 2 Cor 13:14; Mat 28:19). The Father is the soul of the Godhead, the Son is the body, and the Holy Ghost is the spirit. They all make up the one person of Jesus Christ (Col 2:9; Rom 1:18-25; 2 Cor 2:10).
Souls and spirits are invisible and cannot be seen: the same is for the Father and the Spirit (Joh 1:18, 4:24; 1 Tim 1:17, 6:13-16); and the Father and the Spirit dwell in the body, similitude, flesh, and form of God, the Son (Col 2:9, 1:13-20; Jam 3:9; 2 Cor 4:4; Phi 2:5-11; 1 Tim 3:16).
This one God, Jesus Christ, is all-powerful (Rev 19:16; 1 Tim 6:13-16; Col 1:16-18), all-knowing (1 Joh 3:20; Psa 147:4-5; Mat 10:29-31), and is omnipresent (Psa 139:7-10; Pro 15:3; Joh 3:13). He is eternal and everlasting (Rev 1:8; 1 Tim 1:17; Job 36:26).
Jesus Christ is the Creator God, and all things were created by him and for him (Col 1:15-17; Joh 1:1-3; Col 3:10; Eph 3:9; Rev 4:11).
We believe Christians should not make imagery of who he is, and doing so is sin (Act 17:29-30; Rom 1:20-25; Exo 20:3-6).

Salvation
See our “Biblical Salvation” page.
Dispensationalism
We believe that the word of God was written for us, but everything is not specifically written to us. Through a careful study and rightly dividing of the scriptures (2 Tim 2:15; 2 Pet 3:15-17; Isa 28:9-10), certain doctrines pertain to certain people and certain times. This also means salvation has been different at times throughout the Bible. We reject the teachings of non-dispensationalism and hyper-dispensationalism.
Hell
We believe in a literal, fire-burning hell that is in the center of the earth. All that die without Jesus Christ will die and wake up in flames, wailing and gnashing their teeth. The citizens of hell will eventually be judged at the great white throne judgment. After that those people will be cast into the lake of fire for all of eternity along with Satan, the antichrist, and the false prophet. We reject the teaching of annihilationism (Mark 9:43-48; Rev 20:10-15, 14:9-11).
Satan
The scriptures teach that Satan, the Devil, is “the anointed cherub that covereth” (Eze 28:13-14). He is not an angel, but the Bible teaches he can transform himself “into an angel of light” (2 Cor 11:14). He is the “god of this world” (2 Cor 4:4). He is the father and prince of those that are lost (Joh 8:43-47; Eph 2:1-3). Satan was once called Lucifer; he was cast out of heaven because he thought he could be God (Isa 14:4-23). Satan is a “copy-cat” and all throughout scripture he is trying to act just like God. Satan is not a red being with horns, a tail, and a pitchfork: he is a beautiful being that is highly deceptive and inciting. The Bible calls him a king over all the children of pride (Job 41:34). He is described as a “roaring lion, walking about, seeking whom he may devour” (1 Pet 5:8). He also quotes scripture (Gen 3; Mat 4). One day, Satan will be cast into the lake of fire of all eternity along with those he has deceived (Rev 20).
The Blessed Hope
The blessed hope is falsely so-called “the rapture”. The current dispensation we live in ends in apostasy and God removes his body/bride out BEFORE the time of Jacob’s trouble, “the tribulation”. When the believers are caught up, their sinful flesh is then transformed and made incorruptible (Phi 3:20-21; 1 Cor 15:48-58; 1 The 4:13-18; 2 The 2:1-8; Joh 10:1-10; Rev 4:1).
The Church
In the scriptures, the term ‘church’ carries two definitions: it either refers to a called out assembly of saints, or the saved believers who comprise Christ’s body (Eph 5:22-33; Rev 1-3). ‘Church’ does not reference a physical building or temple (except one where pagans called their temple a church) (Act 19:37). Believers in the Bible met in their homes (Rom 16:5; 1 Cor 16:19; Phm 2), and we affirm this same truth. Especially now more so than ever before because of government-controlled churches forced to close due to corrupt politicians during Covid-19.
Creation Versus Evolution
We reject all forms of the Darwinian theory of evolution as it is full of countless holes and has been disproven multiple times by non-Christians. We take the accounts of Genesis literally as it was a real six-day creation and God rested on the seventh.
Fossilized evidence has been discovered more than proving a global flood along with other discoveries that prove the Bible true. We do not believe in “the gap theory” as we do not think this is found in scripture. We do not believe in a flat earth of any kind.
Marriage, Home Authority, and Sexuality
We believe marriage is between a man and a woman only. The Bible teaches the man is the head of the woman and to be her spiritual covering. The husband is the head of the home and is commanded to love, protect, and support the wife (1 Cor 11:1-16; Eph 5:25-33). The wife is to submit under the headship of the husband. She has the important role of being the keeper of the home, bearing and teaching the children, and so on (Eph 5:22-24; 1 Pet 3:1-7; Tit 2:1-5; Pro 31).
The Bible teaches that a woman is not to have a pastoral or authoritative role in church gatherings (1 Cor 14:33-35; 1 Tim 2:12-14, 3:1-3).
We believe a woman (and a man) are to present themselves in modest clothing and apparel (1 Tim 2:9-11; 1 Pet 3:1-6; Pro 31). Men and women should not cross-dress (Deu 22:5).
The Bible is very clear that the LGTBQ+ lifestyle is sin and an abomination in God’s sight, as it is contrary to nature and goes against how God created men and women (Rom 1:24-32; Jud 7; 1 Cor 6:9-11; Lev 18:18-30; 2 Tim 3:1-5).
The Nation Of Israel And The Jewish People
We believe that the nation of Israel is God’s elect nation (Isa 45:4; Deu 32:9-10; Gen 12:1-3). It is the Hebrew people who were given the law and commandments (Rom 2:17-20, 9:1-5), who wrote all of scripture (Rom 3:2), and is the kindred that Lord himself was born of (Rom 9:4-5, 1:3; Heb 2:14-18, 7:14).
We very much reject the teachings of replacement theology and antisemitism. Though the nation of Israel is in rejection of their Messiah, Jesus Christ, God has not cast them away. God will one day save the nation of Israel during the time of Jacob’s trouble (“the tribulation”) through signs and wonders, to fulfill the covenant that God made with Abraham (Rom 11; Eze 36:16-38; Hos 3; Jer 30; Rev 7:4-8, 12:1-17).
