Our BELIEFS

We affirm the historic doctrines of the Christian faith.

 
We believe there is one God, who exists in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Matthew 3:16–17; John 14:9–10
We believe all people are created in the image of God and that He created all things.
Genesis 1:1; Acts 17:24–28
We believe in Jesus Christ, God's only Son, who was born of a virgin. Jesus is fully God and fully man, and He came to be the Savior of the world.
John 3:16; Matthew 1:18; John 20:24–31
We believe the Holy Spirit dwells within every Christian to propel them toward holy living.
John 16:5–15; 1 Peter 1:15-16
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God and our final authority for matters of faith.
Romans 15:4; Hebrews 4:12; 2 Timothy 3:16
We believe that humankind willfully sinned; and, as a result, is lost and without hope apart from Jesus Christ.
Acts 4:12; Romans 3:23; 1 John 1:7
We believe salvation, the forgiveness of sins, comes by grace through the blood of Jesus Christ, and sin has been defeated by Jesus resurrection from the grave.
Matthew 26:28; Romans 5:8–11; Ephesians 2:8–9
We believe the Church is the body and bride of Christ, consisting of all Christians everywhere, and that Jesus is coming back for her.
Matthew 16:13–18; Acts 2:14–47
We believe the Bible teaches that God intends for marriage to be a monogamous, lifelong, loving relationship between a man and a woman and that His design for sex is exclusively within the context of a Biblical marriage.
Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:6; Genesis 1:28; 9:7
We believe death seals the eternal destiny of each person. The saved will inherit eternal life; the unsaved will experience eternal separation from God.
Romans 8:10–11; Daniel 12:2; John 6:47
