What We Believe


The Eternal State
We believe that upon physical death the soul of one who
has trusted in the Lord Jesus Christ for salvation passes immediately into His presence,1 and there remains in conscious bliss until the resurrection of the body at His coming, when soul and body reunited shall be associated
with Him forever in glory.2 We believe that upon
physical death, the soul of an unbeliever remains in
conscious suffering3 until the final judgment, when soul
and body reunited in physical resurrection shall be
punished forever in the lake of fire,4 away from the
presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power.

Conclusion

We not only believe
that this body of
doctrine is a sacred
trust to be preserved
and taught in its purity, but we also believe it
is a life to be lived
and a gospel to be preached.
