What We Believe

WE BELIEVE…That there’s one living and true God. He has eternally existed in three personalities: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and are one God. 

WE BELIEVE…The Bible is the inspired Word of God. The Bible is the sole standard by which we follow in our Holy Spirit led our lives.

WE BELIEVE… Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is equal with the Father. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offers Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all men by dying on the cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to Heaven’s glory and will return again to earth to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

WE BELIEVE…The Holy Spirit is equal with the Father and the Son as God. He is present in the world to make men aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. The Christian seeks to live under His control daily.

WE BELIEVE…Man is made in the spiritual image of God, to be like Him in character. He is the supreme object of God’s creation. Although man has tremendous potential for good, he is marred by an attitude of disobedience toward God called “sin.” This attitude separates man from God. 

WE BELIEVE…Man was created to exist forever. He will either exist eternally separated from God by sin, or in union with God, through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God is to be placed in Hell. To be eternally in union with Him is to be received into Heaven. Heaven and Hell are places of eternal existence. After the Great White Throne Judgment (Rev. 21:11-15), God will reveal a new heaven and a new earth where Redeemed Man will live eternally with Him.

WE BELIEVE…Salvation is a gift from God to man. Man can never make up for his sin by self- improvement or good works. Only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God’s offer of forgiveness can man be saved from sin’s penalty. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus Christ into his life by faith.

WE BELIEVE…Because God gives man eternal life through Jesus Christ, the believer is secure in that salvation for eternity. Salvation is maintained by the grace and power of God, not by the self- effort of the Christian. It is the grace and keeping power of God that gives this security.

WE BELIEVE…Water baptism illustrates Christ’s burial and resurrection and our new life as a Christian. This is a testimony to our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

WE BELIEVE…Every believer should be in a growing relationship with Jesus by obeying God’s Word, yielding to the Holy Spirit and by being conformed to the image of Christ. Each believer should be living in the power of the Resurrected Son to fulfill the destiny and plan that God has for each of His children. Each believer should continually be putting to death the deeds of the flesh while living on Earth that we might progressively be conforming to the image of the Son.

WE BELIEVE…Marriage is a covenant between a man and a woman according to God’s Word.

WE BELIEVE…Worship is a lifestyle not just expressed on Sundays but in our everyday lives.
