What we believe:
The Bible: We believe that the Bible is God’s word to all men, and the final authority in all matters pertaining to Christian faith and practice. Because it is “God-breathed”, it is truth without any mixture of error. We further believe in the Divine preservation of God's word and that we have God's written word perfectly preserved for our daily study, life application, and public ministry.
God: We believe there is only one living and true God - who is the creator and ruler of the universe. He has eternally existed in three persons – the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and are one God.
Humanity: We believe that human beings were created by God in His image, but we have alienated ourselves from Him by an attitude of disobedience called sin and are in need of reconciliation.
Eternity: We believe human beings was created to exist forever. We will either exist eternally separated from God by sin or in union with God through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God is hell. To be eternally in union with Him is eternal life. Heaven and hell are places of eternal existence.
Jesus Christ: We believe that God became man in the person of Jesus Christ and that Jesus Christ is both completely divine and completely human. He is co-equal with the Father. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all men by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to heaven’s glory and will return again to earth to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
Holy Spirit: We believe that the Holy Spirit is equal with the Father and the Son as the third person of the Trinity. He is present in the world to make men aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. The Christian seeks to submit to his control daily.
Salvation: We believe that through the gift of Jesus' death on the cross our rebellion can be forgiven, and through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ we can be reconciled to God. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus Christ into his or her life by faith.
Ordinances: We believe that both Baptism and The Lord's Supper are visible signs of the realities of salvation. We are commanded to observe them, but we do not depend on them for salvation.
Last Things: We believe that Christ will return at God's appointed time.
