Beliefs
We believe the entire Bible to be the inspired, infallible Word of God, the revelation of God’s will for man and the divine and final authority for the Christian life.
2 Timothy 3:16-17
We believe in one God, the Creator of all things, who is revealed in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Deuteronomy 6:4; John 15:26
We acknowledge Jesus as fully God and fully man — conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin, crucified, and resurrected — our High Priest and Advocate now seated at the right hand of God the Father.
Matthew 1:18; Hebrews 12:2
We believe in having a personal relationship with Jesus by repenting of sin, acknowledging Christ’s resurrection and Lordship, and inviting Him to come inside to make us new. This salvation forgives sins through the shed blood of Jesus, acknowledging every person’s need for the grace and mercy of God. We all have sinned. We all need Jesus.
Romans 3:23-24; Ephesians 1:7; 1 Peter 1:3; 1 John 1:9
We believe that there is a heaven and a hell. We believe in an invisible, yet powerful kingdom of God near through the Holy Spirit. There is only one way to receive this kingdom now and forever, and that is by repenting of sin and receiving Jesus as Lord through faith. By this, we are born-again.
