The Bible teaches that there is a personal Devil.

We believe in the Resurrection of the Body.

The conscious eternal punishment of all who die without God's salvation.

We assert that there is but One Church known as the Church which is Christ's Body and that only those who have been redeemed by His precious blood are members of this One Body.

We believe that there are two ordinances given by Christ the Head of the Church and that these are to be observed by Believers only. These are Baptism and the Lord's Supper. Baptism represents burial with Christ and is by total immersion in water. We welcome all those who are Born of God, to the Lord's Supper and refuse none who are sound in the faith and clean in their walk.

We believe that it is both scriptural and necessary for the Assembly to choose qualified men from their midst, to take up the office of Oversight. The duty of these men is to supervise the work of the Assembly and to be an example to the Flock in all things.
