About Us

What We Believe

We believe... In the inspiration and inerrancy of the Bible. The scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the Word of God, fully inspired without error in the original manuscripts, and the infallible rule of faith and practice.

We believe... In the triune nature of God. There is one living and true God, eternally existing in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit--equal in power and glory; and, this triune God created all simply by speaking it into existence. God upholds and and governs all.

We believe... In God the Father. God the Father is an infinite, personal Spirit, perfect in holiness, wisdom, power and love; He concerns Himself mercifully in the affairs of men; He hears and answers prayer; and, He saves from sin and death all who come to Him through Christ Jesus.

We believe... In the deity of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is God's only begotten Son, conceived by the Holy Spirit. We believe in His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles and teaching, His substitutionary atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension into heaven, perpetual intercession for His people, and His personal, visible return to earth.

We believe... In the ministry of the Holy Spirit today. The Holy Spirit came forth from the Father and Son to convict the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment, and to regenerate, sanctify and empower for ministry all who believe in Christ. We believe that the Holy Spirit indwells every believer in Jesus Christ and that He is an abiding helper, teacher and guide. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit and in the exercise of the Biblical gifts of the Spirit.

We believe... Salvation is by faith through grace. All people are by nature separated from God by sin, and are individually responsible for their own sin; but, salvation, redemption and forgiveness are freely offered to ALL by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.

When a person repents of sin and accepts Jesus Christ as personal Savior and Lord, believing in their heart and trusting Him to save, that person is immediately born again and sealed by the Holy Spirit; ALL his/her sins are forgiven, and that person becomes a child of God.

We believe... In the physical return of Jesus Christ to the earth. We await the rapture of the church, the personal, visible return of Christ to earth and the establishment of His Kingdom. We believe in the resurrection of the body and the final judgment, which results in the eternal blessing of the righteous and endless suffering of the wicked.

We believe... The church should be ready for Christ's return. God has formed a universal community from those who follow Him, described in the Bible as a living, spiritual body, of which Christ is the head and those who have been born again are members. We are connected to each other locally where we gather to worship Him, be taught by Him, and be sent by Him. We are instructed in His word to be ready at all times for His imminent return.
