We believe in one God who exists in three distinct persons (Father, Son and Holy Spirit). John 3:16, Matthew 3:16-17
Jesus Christ:
We believe that Jesus Christ (the Son of God) became flesh to reveal God to man and is the Savior of the lost. Isaiah 9:6; John 1:1,14; Hebrews 4:15; Romans 6:23
Holy Spirit:
We believe in the deity of the Holy Spirit who offers regeneration to unbelievers, indwells believers and enables believers to live Godly lives. John 14:16, John 16:13-15
Mankind:
We believe that man and woman were created in the image of God to have fellowship with Him, but became alienated from that relationship through sinful disobedience. As a result, man is totally incapable of coming back into a right relationship with God by his own effort. Genesis 1:26; Romans 3:23
The Christian Life:
We believe every Christian should live for Christ and not for himself. By obedience to the Word of God and daily yielding to the Spirit, every believer should mature and become conformed to the image of Christ. Colossians 1:16;
Romans 12: 1,2; 2 Peter 3:18; Ephesians 5: 1,2; Matthew 16:24; John 14:23; 2 Corinthians 3:18;
1 Thessalonians 4:3
Salvation:
We believe that the shed blood of Jesus Christ on the cross provides the sole basis for the forgiveness of sins. Therefore, salvation only occurs when a person places their faith in the death and resurrection of Christ alone as the sufficient payment for their sin. 2 Corinthians 5:21; Romans 5; Luke 24:46-47; John 1:29; Acts 3:19; 1 John 1:7-9;Revelation 5:9
The Church:
We believe that the church is the body of Christ of which Jesus Christ is the head. The members are those who have trusted by faith the finished work of Christ. The purpose of the church is to glorify God by loving Him and by making Him known to a lost world. 1 Corinthians 12:27; Ephesians 1: 22-23
The Scriptures:
We believe the entire Bible is the inspired Word of God and that men were moved by the Spirit to write the very words of Scripture. Therefore the Bible is without error. The Bible is the final authority in determining all doctrinal truths. Prov. 30:5; 2 Timothy 3:16,17; 2 Peter 1: 20, 21
