He died on the cross for the sins of the whole world, but only those who accept this gift by faith will receive forgiveness. We believe in the literal, physical, bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ. He ascended into heaven, where He now sits on the right hand of the Father. We believe a sinner is saved when he repents of his sins and believes the good news of Jesus Christ. We do not believe good works merit our salvation in any way, nor are good works the reason we are kept.
Perseverance is by faith alone just as salvation by faith alone.
We believe the Old Covenant has been replaced by the New Covenant. The only way for someone to be saved now is by believing in the Lord Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit We believe that every true believer is indwelled and sealed by the Holy Spirit at the time of salvation. We do not believe spirit-filled believers necessarily speak in tongues. We strongly disagree with the abuse of spiritual gifts.
