Our Beliefs
The Word of God: We believe that the Bible is the Word of God, fully inspired and without error in the original manuscripts, written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and that it has supreme authority in all matters it addresses. 2 Timothy 3:16
The Trinity: We believe that there is one living and true God, eternally existing in three persons, that these are equal in every divine perfection, and that they execute distinct but harmonious offices in the work of creation, providence, and redemption. Genesis 1:1-2; Genesis 1:26; Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19; John 1:1; 1 Timothy 2:5
God the Father: We believe in God, the Father, an infinite, personal spirit, perfect in holiness, wisdom, power, and love. We believe that He concerns Himself mercifully in the affairs of all people, that He hears and answers prayer, and that He saves from sin and death all who come to Him through Jesus Christ. John 3:16-17; Revelation 4:11
Jesus Christ: We believe in Jesus Christ, God’s only begotten Son, conceived by the Holy Spirit. We believe in His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, and teachings. We believe in His substitutionary, atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension into heaven, perpetual intercession for His people, and personal, visible return to earth. Matthew 1:21; 2 Corinthians 5:19; Revelation 22:20
The Holy Spirit: We believe in the Holy Spirit who came forth from the Father and Son to convict the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment and to regenerate, sanctify, and empower all who believe in Jesus Christ. We believe that the Holy Spirit indwells every believer in Christ at regeneration and that He is an abiding helper, teacher, and guide. John 14:16; John 16:14; 1 Corinthians 6:19; 1 Corinthians 12:4-7
The Gospel: We believe that the Gospel is the ultimate good news: mankind has the means to a restored relationship with God by grace alone, through faith alone, in Jesus Christ alone; that His life, crucifixion, and resurrection have already atoned for the sins of and imputed righteousness upon the elect, broken the power of sin, and overcome death. The Gospel is Christological, centering on the cross and resurrection: the Gospel is not proclaimed if Christ and His death and resurrection are not proclaimed. Ephesians 2:4-9
Regeneration: We believe that all people are sinners by nature and by choice and are, therefore, under condemnation. We believe that those who trust in Jesus Christ as their Savior are regenerated by the Holy Spirit. 2 Corinthians 5:17
The Church: We believe in the universal church, a living spiritual body of which Christ is the head and all regenerated persons are members. We believe in the local church, consisting of a company of believers in Jesus Christ, baptized on a credible profession of faith, and associated for worship, work, and fellowship. The Lord Jesus Christ commands all believers to proclaim the Gospel throughout the world and to make disciples of all nations. He calls us to a life of self-denying love and service. 1 Peter 2:9
The Ordinances: We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ has committed two ordinances to the local church: baptism and the Lord’s Supper. We believe that Christian baptism is the immersion of a believer in water into the name of the Triune God. We believe that the Lord’s Supper was instituted by Christ for commemoration of His death. We believe that these two ordinances should be observed and administered until the return of the Lord Jesus Christ. Matthew 28:18-20; Luke 22:19
The Last Things: We believe in the personal, visible return of the Lord Jesus Christ to earth and the establishment of His kingdom. We believe in the resurrection of the body, the final judgment, the eternal felicity of the saved, and the eternal suffering of the unsaved. Matthew 24:30; Revelation 19:11-16
