We believe that salvation is not a process but a point-in-time of repentance of sin and place one's faith and trust in the shed blood of Christ alone for the forgiveness of sin, recognising that He died, was buried, and rose again the third day, according to the scriptures. We believe that all those who receive Jesus Christ as Savior are saved from sin’s penalty, which is eternal damnation.
(Luke 5:32; 13:3; 24:46-47; Acts 3:19; 17:30; Romans 10:9-13; Ephesians 1:7; Hebrews 9:22; I Peter 1:18-19; II Peter 3:9; I Corinthians 15:1-4 )
We believe that salvation is a gift of God, by grace, through faith. It cannot be earned or merited by any good work of man.
(John 3:1-18; Romans 6:23; Ephesians 2:8-9; Titus 3:5 ).
We believe that regeneration, or the new birth, is that change produced in the soul by the Holy Spirit by which a new nature and spiritual life, not before possessed, are imparted. The regenerated person becomes a new creation in Christ Jesus and part of the family of God, eternally secure, and never to be separated from Him.
(John 1:12; 3:3-6; 5:24; 10:27-30; Hebrews 7:25; I Peter 1:23; Titus 3:5 )
