We believe in the Holy Bible, Old and New Testaments, as inspired by
God and inerrant in its original writings, and that it is the
complete and final authority on all matters of life and faith.
We believe in the only one true, and living God, eternally existing
in three persons: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit; yet one God.
We believe that man was created in the image of God; that through sin
man incurred both spiritual and physical death. As a result, humanity
is totally depraved, alienated from God, under His righteous anger,
and in need of a savior; Jesus Christ.
We believe that Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit, and
born of the virgin Mary, and that He is true God and true man. In Him
all the fullness of the Godhead dwells forever.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ, as a representative and
substitutionary sacrifice, died for our sins and that all who believe
in Him are justified by His shed blood.
We believe in the physical resurrection of the crucified body of our
Lord Jesus Christ, His ascension into heaven, His present life there
for us as High Priest and advocate, and His future personal return.
We believe salvation is only and altogether through simple faith in
Jesus Christ and that without such faith there can be no salvation
here or hereafter. By the grace of God, all who in repentance and
faith receive the Lord Jesus Christ, are born again by the Holy
Spirit and thereby become children of God. Such are sealed unto the
day of redemption.
We believe in the bodily resurrection of the saved and the unsaved,
who will all stand before God in judgement. The saved will spend
eternity in the presence of God and the unsaved will be condemned to
everlasting conscious punishment.
