Statement of Faith
- We believe there is one God who lives eternally in three persons; the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Matt 28:19)
- We believe that the Bible (the canonical Scriptures of the Old and New Testament) is God’s inspired word to the world, speaking to us with the only authority and without error. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)
- We believe in the Divinity of Jesus Christ the Son, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His death for us on the cross, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the Father and His personal, physical return to rule the earth in power and love. (John 1:14-18, 1 Thess 4:16-18)
- We believe that all mankind is lost in sin and need to turn from it and trust personally in the Savior, Jesus Christ. All need to be born anew by the Holy Spirit’s power into God’s family. (Eph 2:1-10, John 3:5-7)
- We believe the Holy Spirit lives in us as believers and brings joy, love, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, humility, and self-control into our lives. He works in and through us with His charismatic gifts. (Gal 5:22-23, 1 Cor 12:7-11)
- We believe in the resurrection of every person to eternal life for the believer and eternal judgment for the lost. (Matt 25:31-46)
- We believe in the unity for all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ and seek community together. We want to become more like Him in
every way, who is the head of His body, the Church. We are called
to love Him and one another and are enabled to do this only as His
life flows through us. (1 Cor 12:12-13, Matt 22:37-40)
