Statement of Faith

We believe…there is one God who lives forever in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

We believe…that the Bible is the inspired Word of God, speaking to us with authority, and without error in the original documents.

We believe…in the divinity and humanity of Jesus Christ the Son, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His atoning death for us on the cross, His bodily resurrection, and His ascension to the Father.

We believe…that all humanity is lost in sin, and needs to turn from it and place their faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior; those who do so are born again by the Holy Spirit’s power into God’s family.

We believe…the Holy Spirit lives in us and fills us as believers, forming in us the fruit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, humility, and self-control, and empowering us for service through His gifts for the Church.

We believe…in the future, personal, physical return of Christ to judge the living and the dead, and to reign in His kingdom over the new heaven and new earth for eternity.

We believe…in the resurrection of every person— to eternal life for the believer and eternal judgment for the lost.

We believe…in the invisible, universal Church, comprising all who are saved in Jesus Christ, as His Body on earth. We as well believe in the assembling of the saved in the visible, local fellowship of believers.

We believe…in water baptism and the Lord’s Supper as ordinances of the Church established by Christ, not as a means of salvation, but as an outward visible sign of an invisible inner work of grace in the life of the believer.
