God

We believe in one true and sovereign God, eternally existing in three persons: the everlasting Father, His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, and the Holy Spirit, the giver of life; and we believe that God created the Heavens and the earth out of nothing by His spoken word, and for His own glory.

Revelation

We believe that God has revealed Himself and His truth in the created order, in the Scriptures, and supremely in Jesus Christ; and that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are inspired by God and without error in the original writing, so that they are fully trustworthy and of supreme and final authority in all they say.

Christ

We believe that Jesus Christ is both true God (the second Person of the Trinity) and true man (the Incarnate Son of God). We also believe in the great events surrounding Jesus Christ's life and ministry, including: His eternal pre-existence, His virgin birth, His attesting miracles, His sinless life, His sacrificial death on the cross, His glorious bodily resurrection from the dead, His ascension into heaven, and His present work in heaven as High Priest and Advocate. He will return in glory to resurrect and judge all mankind.

Holy Spirit

We believe that the Holy Spirit, the third Person of the Trinity, is indeed a Divine Person, co-equal with the Father and the Son. We also believe the ministry of the Holy Spirit includes glorifying Christ, convicting men of their sin, bringing about the regeneration of lost sinners, and indwelling believers and empowering them for godly living and equipping them for service and witness.

Man

We believe that man was created in the image of God, distinct from all other living creatures and in an original state of righteousness. We also believe man fell into sin therefore incurred both physical and spiritual death. As a result man is born with a sinful nature that leads them to sin in thought, word and deed.

Salvation

We believe that the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ provides the only grounds for salvation for all people. Salvation is obtained by grace through faith alone for all who believe. Those who receive Jesus Christ, by faith, are born of the Holy Spirit and, thus, become children of God.

Church

We believe that the one, holy, universal Church is the body of Christ of which He is the head. The true church is composed of all persons who have been regenerated by the Holy Spirit. We believe that the local assembly exists to worship Him, to nurture believers, proclaim the gospel of God's redemptive love by word and deed and be a sign and agent of the Kingdom God.

Resurrection

We believe Jesus Christ will return to this earth, personally and visibly to raise the dead, to judge the nations, and to bring His Kingdom to fulfillment. We also believe that true believers in Jesus Christ will spend eternity in the blessedness of God’s presence. Those who do not believe in Jesus Christ will be eternally separated from God.

Sacraments

We believe that water baptism and the Lord’s Supper are ordinances to be observed by the Church during the present age. They are, however, not to be regarded as means of salvation or necessary for salvation.
