We have provided a short summary of our doctrinal positions here. If you would like to dig a little deeper, please read the Maranatha Commitment Statements.

We believe in. . .

• The verbal, plenary inspiration of the Old and New Testaments
• God in three persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; the new birth in Christ alone
• Baptism by immersion for believers only
• The eternal security of the believer
• The Lord’s Supper as a memorial
• Six creation days of twenty-four hours each
• The bodily resurrection of Christ and His bodily ascension into heaven where He now intercedes for believers
• The pretribulation rapture of all believers
• The premillennial return and millennial reign of the Lord Jesus Christ
• The judgment
• The reality of heaven and hell
• The local church as God’s institution to carry out the Great Commission
• The obligation of every believer to live a holy life and witness to the lost of the saving power of Christ.
