We believe that the Bible is God-given, reliable in everything it asserts and the final authority for what we believe and how we live.
We believe in one God who made all, knows all and is over all. He exists eternally in three persons: God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ), and Godthe Holy Spirit.
We believe that every human being is created in the image
of God for unending fellowship with him, but is alienated from God by
sin and needs to be saved from the eternal consequences of that sin
and reconciled to God.
We believe that salvation is an act of God, accomplished by the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and imparted by the Holy Spirit to everyone who turns from sin and relies on the death of Christ as a payment for their sin, resulting in the guarantee of unending fellowship with God.
We believe in the global Church, consisting of every follower of Jesus Christ. We believe in the local Church, consisting of believers in a given area who gather regularly under biblical leadership for teaching, fellowship, worship and prayer, with the goal of making disciples of all nations.
We believe in Believers Baptism and the Lord’s Supper. Jesus gave these ordinances to his followers as visible symbols of spiritual realities.
We believe that marriage is the lifelong union of one man and one woman established by God and the state. We believe that the family consisting of father, mother and children is God’s norm and the building block of a functional society.
We believe in the immortality of the human soul. We believe
in the final resurrection of all people: Non-believers to an eternal
existence apart from God. Believers to an eternal existence of fellowship
with God.
