We believe there is but one living and true God, creator of all things, infinitely perfect and eternally
existing in three persons Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Each is worthy of our worship, trust and
obedience.
We believe that Jesus Christ is the true God, true man, conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of a
virgin. He lived a sinless life and made atonement for our sins by his death on the cross. He arose
bodily from the dead and ascended into heaven where, at the right hand of the Father. He is now
our High Priest and Advocate.
We believe that the Holy Spirit works to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ, convicts the world of sin,
righteousness and judgment. The Holy Spirit imparts new life, baptizes the believing sinner into the
body of Christ, and permanently indwells all children of God. The Holy Spirit guides, instructs and
empowers the believer to live a lifestyle that pleases and glorifies God. He endows believers with
spiritual gifts for mutual edification and distinct ministries.
We believe the Scriptures, both Old and New Testaments, to be inspired Word of God, without error
in the original writings, and the supreme and final authority in all matters about which they speak.
The believer is to properly interpret and apply the Scriptures through the illuminating work of the
Holy Spirit.
We believe that man was created in the image of God to glorify and enjoy Him forever. Man fell into
sin by a willful act of disobedience to God, and consequently all human beings are born with a sinful
nature, commit acts of sin, and are eternally separated from God apart from salvation through
Christ.
We believe that the substitutionary death of Jesus Christ and His bodily resurrection provides the
only ground of justification for all who believe. This salvation is not obtained by human effort or
merit, but is entirely a free gift of God’s grace received through faith in Jesus Christ. God Himself
will make the faith of all genuine believers persevere to the end, so that no child of God will ever again be lost.
We believe that all Christians will yet experience temporary personal sin and spiritual warfare in this
life, but from the moment of salvation God has provided the means for overcoming these in the
truth of the Scripture, the power of Christ through the indwelling Spirit, and the encouragement of the believers.
We believe in the personal return of our Lord Jesus Christ to earth in sovereign power and glory to
visibly establish His righteousness rule over creation. This blessed hope should vitally affect the
daily life and service of the believers.
We believe in the bodily resurrection of the dead, of the believer to everlasting blessedness and joy
in the presence of God, and of the unbeliever to judgment and everlasting punishment apart from
God.
