Billy's Statement of Faith
 
The Scriptures:  "I believe the Bible was written by men who were Divinely inspired.  The Holy Spirit is it’s author; salvation and edification it’s purpose; and it is without error.  He Who inspired the Word has preserved it’s accuracy."
 
God:  "I believe in the One true God to Whom is owed the highest love and reverence."
 
Jesus:  "I believe Jesus Christ is God, begotten of the Holy Spirit in the womb of the virgin Mary, and a member of the human family.  He is 100% man and 100% God."
 
The Holy Spirit:  "I believe in the personality and Deity of the Holy Spirit Who illuminates the Word for our understanding of truth and guides the believer in daily conduct."
 
The Resurrection:  "I believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of Jesus, and that He was raised with a literal body of flesh and bone.   I also believe in the bodily resurrection of the saints at the soon return of our Lord."
 
Salvation:  "I believe salvation is by grace through faith, accomplished by the finished work of Jesus at Calvary."
 
Church:  "I believe the church is a body of born again believers who observe Jesus as Head, who associate by covenant in faith, and fellowship in Gospel ministry to the community and the world."
 
Separation:  "I believe all believers are called into a life of separation from the world to set forth holiness of character and purpose."
 
Second Advent:  "I believe Jesus is coming back literally, bodily, and personally."
 
Satan:  I believe in the reality of satan and the demonic kingdom who attempts to lead people away from God, pervert His Word, and incite division among the saints."
