The Bible

We believe the Bible is the complete and inspired Word of God.

  • The 66 books of the Old and New Testaments were divinely inspired by the Holy Spirit as originally written.
  • The Bible is the final authority in all matters of faith and practice.
    • All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness (2 Timothy 3:16 NIV)

God

We believe in one God, Creator of all things, holy, sovereign, and eternal. He exists in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Jesus Christ

We believe in the full deity and humanity of our Lord Jesus Christ.

  • He has existed eternally with the Father in glory.
  • He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, and died as a substitute for our sins.
  • He rose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, and will personally return in glory.

The Holy Spirit

We believe the Holy Spirit is fully God and personally active in the world today.

  • He convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment.
  • He regenerates, indwells, seals, sanctifies, teaches, and comforts all who believe in Christ.
  • He baptizes believers into the Body of Christ and gives spiritual gifts as He wills.

Humanity

We believe that all people are created in the image of God but are fallen and in need of salvation.

  • Adam was created without sin but fell through disobedience.
  • All people inherit a sinful nature and are separated from God.
  • Because of sin, all are subject to both physical and spiritual death apart from Christ.

Salvation

We believe that salvation is entirely by God's grace through faith in Jesus Christ.

  • Jesus gave His life as a perfect sacrifice to atone for our sins.
  • We are justified by faith alone in the death and resurrection of Jesus.
  • All who are truly saved are kept by God's power and will be perfected in His image.
