Doctrinal Statement

We, at Desert Baptist Bible College, believe:

There is one God: the source, support, and end of all things, eternally existent in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

In the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death, in His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the Father’s right hand, and in His personal, pre-tribulation, pre-millennial return for His saints, and with His saints at the revelation.

In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit; that He convicts the sinner, regenerates the one who believes, indwells, seals, instructs, reproves and guides the believer; and that He fills and controls every life that is wholly yielded to Him. However, we are not Charismatic.

The Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative word of God; and God has preserved His word for the English-speaking world in the Authorized King James Version (KJV). We teach only from the KJV Bible.

That man is totally depraved, a sinner, lost by nature and by divine decree; therefore, in need of the convicting and regenerating ministry of the Holy Spirit.

In the personality of Satan, in his power and kingdom, in his wiles, in his judgment at the cross, and in his future eternal destruction in Hell.

That salvation is the gift of God offered to man by grace and received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, and that those who accept the gift of salvation by personal faith are eternally secure.

In the bodily resurrection of the saved unto life and of the unsaved unto judgment and everlasting damnation.

In the spiritual unity of the believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, not in the organized unity sought by the ecumenical movement.
