We believe in the deity and humanity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, sacrificial death to save us from our sins, and His resurrection and ascension to heaven. Mt.1:21, 23; John 1:1-2, 14, 3:16; Acts 1:2-3, 9, 2:22

We believe in the personal, imminent return of Jesus Christ. Acts 1:11; I Thess. 4:16-18; Titus 2:13
