Statement Of Faith

The Bible
We believe the Holy Bible to be the inspired Word of God, inerrant in its original manuscripts. It
is our standard for faith and practice and the measure by which all personal revelation is to be
evaluated.

God
We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
He is Creator, Redeemer, and the Sovereign Ruler of the universe.

Jesus
We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles,
His vicarious death, His atoning blood, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand
of the Father, and His personal return in power and glory.

Sin
We believe that sin is disobedience to God’s inspired word and the rejection of His authority. All
have sinned and are, therefore, lost and separated from God. (Romans 3:23)

Salvation
We believe that salvation of lost and sinful man comes through faith in Jesus Christ. When
people repent (forsake their sins and turn to Christ), He forgives their sins and imparts eternal
life. This personal experience is necessary to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

Holy Spirit
We believe that the Holy Spirit indwells believers, confirming their salvation and enabling them
to bear Godly fruit. We believe in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit by which believers are
empowered to have a bold and effective witness, manifesting His gifts in their daily lives.

The Church
We believe that the Church is Christ’s body on earth and should reveal His character and love to
the world. We believe the Church Universal consists of all believers, while the Church Local is a
body of believers joined in a specific area with common vision.

Eternal Destiny
We believe in the resurrection of the saved and the lost, and that both will stand before the
judgment seat of Christ; the saved will enter into eternal life, and the lost into eternal damnation.
