Statement of Faith:


We believe Holy Bible to be the only infallible, inspired Word of God.  II Timothy 3:15-16, II Peter 1:20-21

 

We believe in God, eternally existing in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  I John 5:7-8, Deuteronomy 6:4-5, Matthew 28:19, II Corinthians 13:14

 

We believe that Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God, conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and is true God and true man.  John 1:1-14, Luke 1:34-35, I John 4:9

 

We believe that mankind was created in the image of God; that mankind sinned and thereby incurred not only physical death, but also spiritual death which is separation from God; and that all human beings are born with a sinful nature.  Genesis 1:26, Romans 5:12, Ephesians 2:1

 

We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures as a representative, substitutionary and complete sacrifice; and that all who believe in Him are justified on the grounds of His shed blood.  Romans 5:8, Galatians 1:4

 

We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential, and that the salvation is received by grace through faith in Jesus Christ as savior and Lord and not as a result of good works.  Titus 3:5, Eph. 2:8-9

 

We believe in the physical resurrection of the crucified body of Jesus Christ, in His ascension into Heaven, and His present life there for us as our High Priest and Advocate.  Hebrews 1:3, 4:15-16, I John 2:1

 

We believe in the personal, visible and second coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, at a time unknown to us, but for which we are watching joyfully.  I Corinthians 15:51, I Thessalonians 4:13-18

 

We believe that the believer should be a vessel sanctified, meet (fitting and proper) for the Master’s use.  II Timothy 2:21, I Thessalonians 4:3

We believe in the great commission which our Lord has given to His Church to evangelize the world, and that this evangelization is the great mission of the church.  Furthermore, we believe it our Christian duty to witness by word and deed to these truths.  Matthew 28:19-20, II Corinthians 5:11

 

We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and unjust, the everlasting conscious punishment of the lost, and the everlasting blessedness of the saved.  John 6:40, Acts 24:15, II Corinthians 4:14

 

We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.  Ephesians 4:13, Romans 12:5
