Our Beliefs

 

The Bible

We believe the Bible to be the verbally inspired Word of God, inerrant in the original documents, and it is the supreme and final authority in all matters of faith and life. (2 Timothy 3:16-17, 2 Peter 1:20-21)

The Godhead

We believe in one Triune God, eternally existing in three persons; Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:18-19, Mark 12:29)

The Creation and Fall of Man

We believe that humans were created in God's image; that all have sinned through Adam's transgression as well as personal experience; that they are totally lost and separated from God, and spiritually dead in their sins. (Genesis 1:27, Romans 3:10-12)

 

The Person and Work of Jesus Christ

We believe that Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin; that He is truly God and truly man; that He died for our sins as a substitutionary sacrifice to justify and reconcile us to God; that all who trust Him as Savior are eternally saved on the grounds of His finished work. (Luke 1:35-40, John 1:1-10, Romans 5:6-9, 2 Corinthians 5:21, Galatians 3:13)

The Person and Work of the Holy Spirit

We believe that the Holy Spirit convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgement; that He indwells and baptizes all believers into the Body of Christ at the moment of salvation. (I Corinthians 6:19, 12:13, John 16:8-11, Titus 3:5)

The Final Things

We believe in the personal, imminent, pre-millenial return of Christ for His own; that the saved will be in His presence in glory forever, while the lost shall suffer physical, eternal punishment and separation from God forever. (I Thessalonians 4:16-17, Luke 16:19-26, Revelation 20:1-3)

The Ordinances

We believe that water baptism, which is a testimony of a believer's faith, and the Lord's Supper, which is a memorial and testimonial of Christ's sacrifice on our behalf, are the only ordinances for the Church as defined by the Scriptures. (Matthew 28:19-20, 1 Corinthians 11:23-26)
