Download Ordination Council Doctrinal Statement

The Old and New Testaments are verbally inspired, infallible, and the final authority for faith and practice. God is One, manifested in Three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, sinless life, atoning death and bodily resurrection, His ascension to the Father, and the personal, visible, pretribulational, premillenial return. Man was created in the image of God, but sinned, and incurred both spiritual and physical death, and a sinful nature. Salvation is by regeneration through faith in the shed blood of the risen Christ, and all who thus accept Him are born again of the Spirit. The bodily resurrection of the just and unjust, the eternal blessedness of the saved, and eternal, conscious suffering of the lost in hell. The present ministry of the indwelling Holy Spirit, enabling believers to live a consistent, godly life. The Great Commission - The evangelization of the world in this generation - the chief task of the church, and an obligation of all those who recognize the Lordship of Jesus Christ. Two ordinances of the church: the Lord's Supper and Baptism by immersion.
