Theme: "Learning God's Word To Move Forward!"

1. The Scriptures - We believe that "All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:" (II Timothy 3:16) therefore the Old and New Testaments were written by men of God, who were verbally inspired by God, being inerrant, and final authority in faith and life style. We believe that historical artifacts has proven the authenicity of the bible to be true.
2. God - We believe in one God (I Timothy 2:5), exposed to man as Father (Ephesians 4:6), exposed to man as Son (Hebrews 1:8), and Holy Ghost (Acts 5:3).
3. Jesus Christ - We believe in Jesus Christ as the Son in redemption (Galatians 3:13), hid in the Father in creation (Ephesians 3:9), and the Holy Spirit in filling (Luke 1:35).
4. Holy Spirit - We believe in the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit (John 3:5-8).
5. Humanity - We believe that God created humanity in His own image (Genesis 1:26). The first humans, Adam and Eve, disobeyed God (Genesis 2:17; 3:6-7), as a result of their sin, (Romans 5:12) thereby incurring death for all and in danger mankind of eternal Hell Fire if outside of Christ Jesus (John 14:6; Revelation 20:11-15).
6. Salvation - We believe that Salvation is not of works, but by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, (Ephesians 2:8-9) and that everyone who believes in Jesus are declared righteous because of His shed blood (Romans 5:8-11).
7. Return of Christ - We believe in the return of Jesus Christ, Visibly, Literally, and Personally. We believe in eternal punishment with Satan in Hell, for the unsaved, and eternal life with Jesus for the saved to enter Heaven, the final judgment (John 5:29).
8. The Church - We believe that the Church of the New Testament, is a body of baptized believers in the name of Jesus Christ (Romans 12:5), for the remission of their sins (Acts 2:38), being filled with God's Holy Spirit according to Bible references, drawn out from the worldly and ungodly activities (I Peter 4:3-4) and voluntarily joined together, therefore striving to make their calling and election sure (II Peter 1:10).
9. Baptism - We believe that there is only one baptism commissioned in (Matthew 28:19) and fulfilled in (Acts 2:38; Acts 8:12-16; Acts 10:48; Acts 19:3-5).
10. Holy Communion - We believe in Holy Communion as the commemoration of Jesus suffering and death, bread  as His body, wine (pure grape juice) as His blood (I Corinthians 11:24-25).
11. Marriage - We believe that God institute and ordained marriage as a union between one man and one woman. We believe that there is no biblical foundation scripture for same sex marriage and that the scripture identifies individuals with such practice has a reprobate mind according to Romans 1:26-28. We therefore believe that legitimate sexual relations are exercised solely within marriage of a man and woman. Any sexual activities outside of marriage including but not limited to, adultery, premarital sex, and h homosexuality.
12. Homosexuality - Homosexuality, and pedophilia are inconsistent with the teaching of the Bible, the Church, and Highway Restoration Online Bible College.
