WHAT WE BELIEVE
THE BIBLE
The Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the infallible Word of God, the source and the rule of all our faith and practice. They are designed to lead us to salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. They are fully inspired by God and therefore serve as an authoritative guide for Christian understanding, life and ministry. The Scriptures accordingly in all that they affirm are without error, in the whole and in the part, and therefore are completely trustworthy.
TRINITY
God is Triune. There is but one God infinite, eternal, almighty, and perfect in holiness, truth, and love. In the unity of the godhead there are three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, co-existent, co-equal, co-eternal.
CREATOR
God is the Creator of heaven and earth. By His Word all things were made, and through the same Word He daily sustains all His creatures. He is faithful to every promise, works all things together for good to those who love Him, and, in His unfathomable grace, He gave His Son Jesus Christ for mankind’s redemption.
MAN
Man – Male and female – was created in the image and likeness of God. Through the original sin of man – Adam and Eve – mankind has fallen from God, become corrupt in his whole nature, and is totally incapable by himself of returning to God. Fallen, sinful men, whatever their character or attainments, are lost and without hope apart from salvation in Christ.
JESUS
Jesus Christ the Son is fully God and fully man: the only Savior for the sins of the world. He was the Word made flesh, supernaturally conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and was perfect in nature, teaching, and obedience. He died on the cross as the vicarious sacrifice for all mankind, rose from the dead in His own glorified body, ascended into heaven, and will return in glory
SALVATION
Salvation, the gift of God, is provided solely by His grace through faith in Jesus Christ. Turning from sin in repentance, looking to Christ and His vicarious death, man is born anew into eternal life by the Holy Spirit.
HOLY SPIRIT
The Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of life, convicts the world of sin, righteousness and judgment, unites man to Jesus Christ in faith, brings about the new birth, dwells within the regenerate, producing in them the fruit of the Spirit, and enables them to grow in sanctification.
FILLED WITH THE SPIRIT
The Baptism in the Holy Spirit or being Filled with the Spirit is available to all who believe in Jesus Christ. This promise of the Father that the Holy Spirit would be sent in power was not only made to the early disciples but continues through generations to come.
THE CHURCH
The Church, who is the body of Christ, is dedicated to the worship and service of God, the observance of the sacraments or ordinances of Baptism and the Lord’s Supper, and the practice of good works.
SECOND COMING
The Second Coming Consummation of all things includes the visible, personal and glorious return of Jesus Christ, the resurrection of the dead and the translation of those alive in Christ, the judgment of the just and the unjust, and the fulfillment of Christ’s kingdom in the new heavens and the new earth.
