What We Believe

The Scriptures

We believe that the Scriptures, both the Old and New Testaments are infallible and inerrant in the original manuscripts. They are the unique, full and the final authority on all matters of faith and practice.

God

We believe in one Triune God, eternally existing in three persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—co-eternal in being, co-eternal in nature, co-equal in power and glory, having the same attributes and perfections.

Jesus

We believe that Jesus, the eternal Son of God, became man without ceasing to be God, having been conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary in order that He might reveal God and redeem sinful man. We believe that Jesus accomplished our redemption through His death on the cross and that our right standing before Gods is made sure by His literal, physical resurrection from the dead. We believe that Jesus ascended into heaven and is now exalted at the right hand of God. We believe Jesus is coming again to judge the living and the dead.

Sin

We believe that man was created in the image and likeness of God, but that through Adam’s sin the race fell, inherited a sinful nature, and became alienated from God.

Salvation

We believe that salvation is the gift of God brought to man by grace and received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, whose precious blood was shed on Calvary for the forgiveness of our sins.

The Holy Spirit

We believe that the person of the Holy Spirit was sent into the world by the Father and the Son to apply to mankind the saving work of Jesus. He enlightens the minds of sinners, awakens in them a recognition of their need of a Savior and regenerates them. At the point of salvation He permanently indwells every believer to become the source of assurance, strength and wisdom. The Holy Spirit guides believers in understanding and applying Scripture. His power and control make it possible for the believer to lead a life of loving Jesus and loving people.

Faith and Practice

Scripture is the final authority in all matters of faith and practice. We recognizes it cannot bind the conscience of individual members in areas where Scripture is silent. Rather, each believer is to be led in those areas by the Lord, to Whom he or she alone is ultimately responsible.
