Our Beliefs

We believe in one eternal, unchanging, personal God; perfect in holiness, wisdom, love, power, and justice; creator and preserver of all things, visible and invisible. He exists as one divine being and yet as a trinity of three distinct persons, identical, inseparable, and equal in divinity, power and eternity.

Scripture: Genesis 1:1; 26,27; 3:22; Psalm 90:2; Matthew 28:18-19; John 1:14; 6:27, 45-46, Acts 5:3-4, 2 Corinthians 2:13; 10:11, Galatians 4:6; Ephesians 5:20, 2 Peter 1:21

Jesus Christ is God revealed in human and is the second Person of the divine Trinity. We believe in His conception by the Holy Spirit, virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, teachings, and that He offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all people by dying on the cross. He rose from the dead on the third day to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to heaven and will return again to earth to reign as Lord and King.

Scripture: Matthew 1:22-23; Isaiah 9:6; John 1:1-5; 14:10-30; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4;

The Holy Spirit id the third Person of the divine Trinity and lives in the life of every believer from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. He supplies conviction of sin, regeneration, sanctification, and the believer’s assurance eternal salvation. He produces in believers, both the “fruit of the Spirit”, and the gifts of the Spirit, so that they may grow in Christlikeness and do fulfill the work of the Great Commission in the world.

Scripture: 2 Corinthians 3:17; John 16:7-13; 14:16-17; Acts 1:8; 1 Corinthians 2:12; 3:16; 6:19-20, Ephesians 1:13; 5:1; Galatians 5:18, 22-25

We believe that all Scripture is given by inspiration of God, without error in all that it affirms, and is the only infallible rule of faith and living. It is fully authoritative and trustworthy, fully sufficient for all believers now and always, and is profitable for teaching, reproof, correction, and training in righteousness. 

We believe that God created man and woman in His own image, in order to glorify himself and enjoy His fellowship forever. Adam and Eve fell from this original state by a voluntary act of disobedience, thus suffering the immediate loss of a perfect relationship with God and making self the center of their lives. By this act, they suffered spiritual death, and sin entered the world and death by sin, so that death passed upon all.

Scripture: Genesis 1:27; Psalm 8:3-6; Isaiah 53:6a; 59:1-2; Romans 3:23; 6:23

We believe God the Father sent Jesus the Son to reconcile mankind to a relationship with himself. In response to repentance from sin, God pardons them from sin and declares them righteous, by the atoning death of Christ. We believe that salvation is a free gift from God given to any person who puts their faith in Jesus Christ, accepting Him as Lord and Savior.

Scripture: Genesis 1:27; Psalm 8:3-6; Isaiah 53:6a; 59:1-2; Romans 3:23

The “Church” is the people of God united on mission who happen to meet in a building. Believers are united together in what the Bible calls the “Body of Christ,” of which Jesus is the head. Each person brings their own set of gifts and talents to help make disciples of all nations. This is why we need you! We are witnesses to the grace and love of God and live as a loving community who build up one another in the grace and knowledge of God.

Scripture: Romans 12:5; I Corinthians 12:12-28; Ephesians 3:6, 4:11-16, 5:23

We believe that Heaven and Hell are both real places for human beings to exist after death and that every human being will exist for eternity either in God’s presence or separated from Him. We believe that the Biblical descriptions of Heaven and Hell are meant to give us a basic, and metaphorical, understanding of these places, but the main issue is that God has made a way for everyone to spend eternity with Him through faith in Jesus’ life, death and resurrection.

Scripture: Ecclesiastes 3:11; Acts 24:15; 1 Corinthians 2:9, 2 Corinthians 5:10; Matthew 25:31-34, 41,46; Revelation 21:3-5; Revelation 22:5
