Statement of Faith

  1. We believe the Bible to be the only fully inspired, infallible, inerrant, and authoritative written Word of God. (II Timothy 3:16; II Peter 1:21)
  2. We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Genesis 1:1; John 10:30, 37-38)
  3. We believe in the full deity and full humanity of the Lord Jesus Christ as the Son of God, in his virgin birth, his sinless life, his miracles, his vicarious atonement, his substitutionary atonement through his shed blood, his bodily resurrection, his ascension to the right hand of God the Father and his personal return in power and glory. (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:2; Luke 1:3; Hebrews 4:15, 7:25, 9:12; John 2:11, 11:25; Colossians 1:14; Acts 1:11; Revelation 19:11,16)
  4. We believe that the human race is fallen in Adam, that all people have sinned and fallen short of God’s perfect standard, and that the salvation of lost and sinful man depends upon the substitutionary death of Jesus Christ who died on a cross as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of humanity. His salvation is offered to all who will believe and is made effectual by Grace, through faith. In Christ alone, and not by good works a person is saved, forgiven of their sins and born again by the Spirit of God. Salvation is evidenced by repentance toward God, faith in Jesus Christ and a growing desire to honor God by obeying His commandments. (Romans 2:23, Romans 6:23, Romans 3:19, 23; John 3:16,19, 4:24; Ephesians 2:8-9; Titus 3:5, 1 Corinthians 15:3-4)
  5. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling and filling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life. (Ephesians 5:18, 4:30; I Corinthians 3:16, 6:19,20)
  6. We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost. They who are saved unto the resurrection of eternal life with Christ and they who are lost unto the resurrection of eternal damnation and separation from God. (John 5:28-29)
  7. We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ. We believe that all disciples are called to attend, worship and serve Him in a local congregation or fellowship that is part of His Body, the Church. (I Corinthians 12:12-13; Galatians 3:26,28, Hebrews 10:25)
  8. We believe that man was created in the image of God, and that, from the moment of conception has the right to live that life to the glory of God. (Genesis 1:26-28, 5:1-2; Psalm 139:13-18)
  9. We recognize two genders, male (born male) and female (born female). Total/partial transitioning or identifying as the opposite sex of one’s birth is not equivalent. Marriage is exclusively between one male and one female. (Genesis 1:27, 2:21-24, 5:2; Psalm 139:13-16)
