What We Believe
Bible
The Bible was written by human authors under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit and was inspired by God. The Bible is truth and according to 2 Timothy 3:16 is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness.
The Son
Jesus Christ is completely human but, at the same time, completely God. He is the only plan for the redemption of mankind and the bridge that brings people who are far from God back into a right relationship with God. He lived a perfect life, so that He could be a substitution for us in satisfying God’s demands for perfection. He defeated death in His resurrection so that we can have life.
Man
Man is made in the image of God and created to have fellowship with God, but became separated in that relationship through sinful disobedience. As a result, man cannot attain a right relationship with God through his own effort. Every human life that has been created by God is worthy of respect and Christian love.
God
God has existed for all eternity. He exists as one substance in three persons: The Father (Creator), The Son (Savior) and the Holy Spirit (Helper, Comforter, Guide). Although each member of the The God Head serves different functions, they each possess equal power and authority.
Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit’s presence assures us of our relationship with Christ. He guides believers into all truth and exalts Christ. He convicts people of their sin, God’s righteousness, and the coming judgment. He comforts us, gives us spiritual gifts, and makes us more like Christ.
Salvation
The blood of Jesus Christ, shed on the cross, provides the only way of salvation through the forgiveness of sin. Salvation occurs when people place their faith in the death and resurrection of Christ as sufficient payment for their sin. Salvation is a gift from God, and it cannot be earned through our own efforts.
The Father
God is sovereign, He is all powerful, all knowing, ever present, unchanging, and Holy. In Him we live, move and have our being. God is good. He is our Father. He is loving, compassionate, and faithful to His people and His promises.
Eternity
Man was created to exist forever. He will exist either eternally separated from God by sin or united with God through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God is Hell. To be eternally united with Him is Heaven. Heaven and Hell are places of eternal existence.
The Church
The Church is a local community of baptized believers unified through faith in Christ. It is committed to the teachings of Christ and obeying all of His commands, and it seeks to bring the Gospel to the world. The Church works together in love and unity, intent on the ultimate purpose of glorifying Christ.
