Statement of Faith
BIBLE
We believe The Bible to be the inspired, infallible, divinely preserved Word of God, the supreme and final authority for all faith and life.
(2 Timothy 3:15-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21; Psalm 19:7-9)
GOD
We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
(Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14)
JESUS
We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, who was fully God and fully man. We believe in His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His atoning death through His shed blood on the cross, His bodily resurrection, His ascension, and His imminent bodily return in power and glory.
(John 1:1, 2, 14, 18; Luke 1:34-35; John 14:1-3, 31-33; John 20:17)
MAN
We believe that man was created in the image of God, but fell into sin and is therefore lost, and only those who put their faith in Jesus Christ alone, not trusting in any personal works whatsoever, can be saved.
(Romans 3:10, 21-26; John 14:6)
SALVATION
We believe that salvation is the free gift of God brought to the sinner by grace and received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, Whose substitutionary death on the cross paid the penalty for man’s sin.
(Ephesians 2:8-9, 1:7, John 1:12; Romans 5:8, 6:23, 10:9-13)
HOLY SPIRIT
We believe that the ministry of the Holy Spirit is to convict mankind; indwell, guide, instruct, and empower the believer for godly living and service. (John 14:16-31; John 16:7-11; 1 Corinthians 12:7-11, 13; Acts 1:8)
MARRIAGE
We believe that God created man and woman after His own Image, and that God has ordained marriage, consisting of one man and one woman, to be the foundation of the family and to be the only legitimate and Godly expression of sexuality.
(Genesis 2:24; Ephesians 5:22-33, 6:1-4)
GREAT COMMISSION
We believe that the fulfillment of the Great Commission is the responsibility of all believers
(Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 13:47; Romans 10:13-14; Matthew 24:14; Revelation 14:6; 1 Chronicles 16:23; Psalm 96:3)
