What We Believe

About Christianity: We believe in all the foundational doctrines of the historic, orthodox Christian faith.

About the Bible: We believe that the Bible is inerrant in its original manuscripts and that it is the inspired, infallible Word of God.

About God: We believe that God is eternally existent in three distinct persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit and that He is the personal, transcendent, and sovereign Creator of all things.

About Jesus: We believe that Jesus Christ is fully God and fully human, that He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, provided for the atonement of our sins by His substitutionary death on the cross, was bodily raised from the dead, ascended back to the right hand of the Father, and ever lives to make intercession for us. We believe in the personal, visible, and pre-millennial Second Coming of Jesus Christ to the earth, that He will return with His saints, and that He will establish a kingdom of which there will be no end.

  About The Holy Spirit: We believe the Spirit of God indwells all believers at the point of their conversion, that He is the revealer of all truth, that He produces spiritual fruit and that He convicts, seals and sanctifies us until the day of redemption. He imparts spiritual gifts, that they are valid for today, and that they should be exercised within scriptural guidelines.

About Man: We believe that all people are, by their sin nature, separated from God and responsible for their own sin.

About Salvation: We believe that salvation, redemption, and forgiveness are freely offered to all by the unmerited favor of God through faith alone in the Lord Jesus Christ alone. Any person who repents of sin and fully places their trust in Jesus completed work on the cross is immediately born again and sealed by the Holy Spirit. All his/her sins, past present and future, are forgiven, and he/she becomes a child of God, destined to spend eternity with Him.
