◊   What We Believe   ◊

 

We believe the Scriptures, both Old and New Testaments, to be the inspired Word of God, without error as originally given, the complete revelation of God's will for the salvation of men, and the Divine and final authority for all Christian faith and life.

 

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

 

We believe that Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man, having been conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He lived a sinless life and died a substitutionary death for the sins of His people. He arose bodily from the dead, and ascended into heaven where He is seated at the right hand of God.

 

We believe that the ministry of the Holy Spirit is to convict, call, and regenerate the sinner; and to indwell, comfort, guide and empower the believer for godly living and service.

 

We believe that God created all things out of nothing, in the space of six literal days, and all very good. Man, though created in the image of God, fell into sin, and by his fall lost communion with God, is now spiritually dead, and is under God's wrath and curse.

 

We believe that man can be saved from the power and penalty of his sin, but only through the regenerating power of the Holy Spirit. Salvation comes to all who will truly repent of their sin, and believe on Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.

 

We believe in the bodily return of Jesus Christ, and the bodily resurrection of all men.

 

We believe in a final judgment with the eternal reward of believers and eternal punishment of unbelievers.
