What We Believe

STATEMENT OF FAITH 


We believe that the Old and New Testaments are inspired by God and inerrant in the original writings, and that they are entirely trustworthy and of supreme and final authority in faith and life. 


We believe in one God, Creator of all things, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. 


We believe that Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary, and that He was and remains true God and true man. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, as a representative and substitutionary sacrifice; and that all who believe in Him are justified by His shed blood. 


We believe In the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His ascension into Heaven, serving as our High Priest and Advocate. 


We believe in the hope of the personal and imminent return of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. 


We believe in God the Holy Spirit, who indwells all believers, enabling them to understand biblical truth and live holy lives.  We believe the Holy Spirit empowers all believers to witness and work for the Lord Jesus Christ. 


We believe that God created Adam and Eve in His divine image; but they sinned, and thereby brought upon themselves not only physical death but also spiritual death- separation from God.  As a result all are now guilty of sin and unable to save themselves from the wrath of God, and need a Savior. 


We believe that salvation is a gift of God to those who repent and personally believe in Jesus Christ. This is accomplished by God’s grace through the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ and regeneration by the Holy Spirit. 


We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they who are saved unto the resurrection of eternal life with God, they who are lost unto the resurrection of eternal condemnation separated from God. 


We believe in the spiritual unity of all true believers, the Universal Church, the Body of Christ.
