What We Believe

  • We believe that the 66 books of the Bible, as originally given, are in their entirety the Word of God, verbally inspired and wholly without error.
  • We believe in one Triune God - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
  • We believe in the Virgin Birth and the Deity of Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God.
  • We believe the substitutionary death of Jesus Christ on the cross made atonement for the sin of the world for all who repent and believe.
  • We believe in the bodily resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ and the resurrection of all believers who have received God's gift of eternal life.
  • We believe in God's judgment in regard to un-believers who reject the gospel. 
  • We believe in the imminent, visible and bodily return of Christ to this earth to set up His kingdom and to judge the world in righteousness.
  • We believe that man was originally created in the image of God, that he fell into sin, and that he is responsible for all sin he has committed. Sin causes him to be separated from God and lost eternally.
  • We believe that salvation and fellowship with God are secured only by a personal belief that Christ bore our sins in His own body on the cross and by a definite receiving of Christ, through the Person of the Holy Spirit.  This is to receive eternal life and to be sealed unto the Day of Redemption.
  • We believe that the Holy Spirit dwells in all who receive Jesus Christ as both Savior and Lord.
  • We believe that the Holy Spirit is responsible for the continuing work of sanctification in the believer.
  • We believe that the church is the body of Christ, consisting of born-again believers, who are called to be identified with Christ in baptism and to remember His death in the Lord's Supper.
  • We believe that Christians are called to witness for Christ, to preach the gospel to all nations, and to study the Bible personally through the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit.
