OUR BELIEFS

WHAT WE BELIEVE

The Bible

We believe the Bible is the inspired, inerrant Word of God, revealing what God is like and maintaining the theme of redemption through the work of Jesus from beginning to end. Everything we believe stems from this truth.

God

We believe there is one true God who is eternally self-existent and the Creator of all things. He exists in three distinct persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

FATHER

We believe God is beyond human understanding and imagination and has revealed Himself through Jesus and throughout the Bible. God is all-knowing, all-powerful, and all-present. He is unconditionally loving, relentlessly merciful and absolutely just.

JESUS

We believe Jesus (the Son) is the second person of the Godhead. He was born of a virgin; as such, he was fully human and fully God. Jesus lived a sinless life, performed miracles, died a substitutionary death on the cross, rose from the dead on the third day, ascended to heaven and is at the right hand of God the Father interceding for his people.

HOLY SPIRIT

We believe the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Godhead, who exists eternally and has been involved with humanity since creation. Throughout the Old Testament, the Holy Spirit guides, directs prophecy, and anoints. In the New Testament his actions are the same, and his works complement Christ’s work. Currently, the Holy Spirit is at work in the world, regenerating, convicting, empowering, interceding, and reminding us of the words of Jesus. The Spirit enables us to pray with words, without words, and with His words.

Salvation

We believe that all people were created in the image of God to have fellowship with him but became alienated in that relationship through sinful disobedience. As a result, people are incapable of regaining a right relationship with God through their own efforts.

We believe that the blood of Jesus Christ, shed on the cross, provides the sole basis for the forgiveness of sin. Therefore, God freely offers salvation to those who place their faith in the death and resurrection of Christ as sufficient payment for their sin.

The Church

We believe that the church is the body of Christ, of which Jesus Christ is the head. The members of the church are those who have trusted by faith in the finished work of Christ. The purpose of the church is to glorify God by loving him and by making him known to the lost world.
