I Cor. 15:58

Current date and time

in  Sicily

The Word of God – We believe that the King James Bible, containing both the Old and the New Testaments, is the perfectly preserved and verbally inspired Word of God.  We believe that it cannot be corrected or improved on nor should be changed in any way. (Ps. 12:6-7 & 119:160)

The Deity of Christ – We believe in the Deity of Christ (John 10:30).  We believe in His virgin birth (Matt. 1:23); His sinless life (Heb. 4:15); His death on the cross for the sins of the world (Col. 1:14); His bodily resurrection (Mark 16:6); His place at the right hand of God.

The Godhead – We believe that God eternally exists in three persons - The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. (1 John 5:7)

State of man – We believe that all men are sinners and need a personal Saviour, and without Jesus Christ will spend eternity in Hell separated from God. (Rom.3:23, 6:23 & John 3:36)

Salvation – We believe that the only way to be saved is through the repentance of sin and faith in Jesus Christ (Rom. 10:9-10).  We believe salvation is a free gift, and not of works (Eph.2:8-9).    

Eternal Security - We believe in the eternally security of the believer. (Eph. 1:13;  Eph. 4:30)  

The Church – We believe the local New Testament church is a body of baptized believers beginning at Pentecost and continuing to the rapture. We believe that the church should be independent and autonomous, and must be free from any ecclesiastical or political authority. We believe that we are committed for perpetual observance to the ordinances of baptism by immersion and the Lord's Supper.  

Separation- We believe that God commands His people to separate from all religious apostasy, all worldly and sinful pleasures, practices, and associations, and to refrain from all immodest appearances. (2Cor. 6:17 & 2Cor. 7:1)

Music-We believe music should honor God and encourage His saints. We believe this is accomplished through psalms, old fashioned hymns and spiritual songs. (Col.3:16)

The Great Commission- We believe the Great Commission is accomplished through sending and supporting of missionaries throughout the world. (Matt. 28:19-20)

Rapture - We believe in the Pre-Tribulation Translation of the Body of Christ (1Thes. 4:16-17) and a Pre-Millennial return of the Lord Jesus Christ to rule and reign on this earth for 1000 years (Rev. 20:1-6).
