GOD
We believe in one God-eternal who created and sustains all things. He alone is Holy,
all-powerful, all-knowing, and always present; existing in three Persons: Father, Son, and Spirit, one in nature, attributes, power, and glory.
(Genesis 1:1; Matthew 28:19; Mark 12:29; John 1:1; Acts 5:3-4)
JESUS CHRIST
We believe in Jesus Christ the Son of God and His virgin birth. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures, as the representative and substitutionary sacrifice and rose again for our justification. We also believe in His bodily resurrection and ascension into heaven, His present position of High Priest making intercessions for us, His bodily and visibly return to the earth at the end of the tribulation to establish His millennial kingdom and to reign as Lord over all nations.
(Luke 1:34-35; Matthew 16:13-16; Hebrews 10:11-14;
I Corinthians 15:3-8; Acts 1:8-9; Hebrews 4:14;
Romans8:34; Revelation 20:36)
THE HOLY SPIRIT
We believe that the Holy Spirit is a divine Person, equal in nature with God the Father and God the Son. The Spirit had an active role in creation and in the inspiration of the Scriptures. He convicts sinners, guides humans into truth, and regenerates believers to new life. The Spirit gives gifts to the body of Christ for ministry. The maturing of faith, the producing of fruit, is all the work of the Spirit.
(Psalm 139:7-12; John 14:16,17; 16:13,14;
1 Corinthians 12:8-10; 28-20; Galatians 5:22-23;
Hebrews 2:3,4)
THE HOLY SCRIPTURES
We believe that God has revealed Himself truthfully to humans through the inspired texts of the Scriptures. The Bible, is inerrant and has authority over the church and the Christian's life and thought.
(1 Timothy 3:16,17; 2 Corinthians 2:10-14;
2 Peter 1:19-21)
SALVATION
We believe that salvation is obtained by a personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ apart from human merit and that all who believe in Him are declared righteous on the ground of His shed blood. Those who place their faith in Jesus are eternally saved because of the securing work of the Father (Ephesians 1:5), the Son (John 10:28-29), and the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 4:30)
(Ephesians 2:8-9; Acts 4:12; 1Peter 1:18-20)
