STATEMENT OF FAITH
We believe in the eternally existing, personal, triune God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, who made all things.
We believe in the full Deity and manhood of Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles,
in His substitutionary and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, and His ascension to
the right hand of the Father, where He now acts as Mediator and Advocate.
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit whose indwelling in all believers enables them to live Godly lives.
We believe that the Holy Bible is a sufficient guide for all men, that it is the inspired Word of God through the
activity of the Holy Spirit, and that in holy reverence it is our chief authority for living.
We believe that salvation consists of the forgiveness of sins, the crediting of Christ’s righteousness to us,
and the gift of eternal life, received by grace through faith alone, entirely apart from works.
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ and in the necessity of all His followers
maintaining good works as evidence of faith.
We believe that those who accept Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord become members of the living body
of Christ and, after baptism by immersion, will seek out, join and participate in a local Church. Then through regular Bible study, worship of God, and fellowship with other believers, they will give dedicated service to all mankind in a sacrificial spirit.
We believe that every believer and follower of the Lord Jesus Christ should be responsible for sharing the Gospel (Good News) by their deeds and words.
We believe in disciplined holy living for Jesus that depends upon the inspiration and power given by the Holy Spirit. Those who believe will be not be conformed to this world system, but will be transformed into a righteous lifestyle by the renewing of their minds by studying the Bible.
We believe in the personal return of our Lord Jesus Christ as the fulfillment and vindication of
history, that all men are in need of salvation for this life and the next and that some will know the
resurrection to eternal life and a heavenly homecoming, while others will know the final separation from
God and the Hell of his lost love and providence.
