Statement of faith
We believe that the entire bible is the inspired and inerrant Word of God; the only infallible rule of faith and practice.
We believe that there is only one God, eternally existing in three persons; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe that Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God, conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and was true Man and is true God.
We believe that in this age, God manifests Himself through the Holy spirit, who is a distinct personality, eternally coexistent with the Father, whose basic tasks are to convict sinners, to regenerate those who believe, and to empower believers to live godly lives and in every way to glorify the Father and the Son through His indwelling presence.
We believe that God created man in his own image; male and female.
We believe that man sinned and thereby incurred not only physical death, but also spiritual death, which is eternal separation from God and is upon all mankind.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures, as a representative and substitutionary sacrifice, and all who believe in Him are justified on the basis of His shed blood.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ was resurrected in body, ascended into heaven, presently lives there for us as High Priest and Advocate, and that his personal physical return to earth will occur.
We believe that every believer in the Lord Jesus Christ is called to obey Christ and His teachings and to pursue righteousness.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ commanded His followers to make disciples of all peoples throughout the world and to witness to the truth and love of God.
We believe in the resurrection of the body and the life everlasting for those who acknowledge Jesus as their Savior.
