Statement of faith
We believe the Bible to be the inspired word of God. We believe in one triune God who created the entire universe. We believe that all people are created in the image of God, but all have sinned and cannot enter eternal glory without a Savior. We believe that God the Son came to earth by being born of a virgin and named Jesus. We believe Jesus Christ was fully human and fully divine - the one-and-only Son of God. He lived among men, was crucified for our redemption, and rose the third day for our justification. We believe that He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and His kingdom will know no end. We believe that the church is the body of Christ on earth and consists of all those who have accepted His grace and have been born of water and the Spirit. We believe the church is a divine institution to which God has committed the message of reconciliation for all nations. We believe that we are saved by grace through faith. That salvation is appropriated through faith and confession in Jesus Christ, repentance from sin, and baptism into Christ for the remission of sins and the gift of the Holy Spirit. We believe that God's plan for marriage and families, including that sexual intimacy only occur in a marriage relationship between a man and a woman, is taught in the Bible. We believe that it is our duty to reverence all human life and have a holistic concern for the needs of all people.
