What We Believe

We recognize the Holy Bible as God's inspired, inerrant, & infallible Word.  Through it He reveals His love and plan for the redemption and salvation of man by His only begotten Son.

We believe there is one living and true God who eternally exists in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. He is the Creator and Ruler of all things.

We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, that He willingly offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all people by dying on a cross; was bodily resurrected after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death; ascended to the right hand of the Father; and will return again to earth as King of kings and Lord of lords.

We believe human beings were created by God uniquely in His own image. Human life is sacred and all people are worthy of respect and Christian love. All people have chosen to disobey God and thus are sinners by nature and practice, deserving of the punishment of eternal spiritual death, which is separation from God. We all are in need of God’s forgiveness and salvation.

We believe salvation is possible only through faith in Jesus Christ. Jesus died for our sins and all who believe in Him find forgiveness and are declared righteous because of His sacrificial death on the cross on our behalf.

We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit whose indwelling enables the Christian to live a godly life.

We believe in the eternal existence of everyone who ever has lived; either in the everlasting blessedness of being in right relationship with God in heaven, or in the everlasting punishment of those separated from God by their sins in hell. Heaven and hell are real places of eternal existence.

We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ and that all true believers are members of His body, the Church.

We believe that the ministry of evangelism is a responsibility of both the church and each Christian.
