We believe that the Bible, comprised of the Old and New Testaments, is verbally inspired by God and is inerrant in the original writings. The Scriptures are the Word of God and are the supreme and final authority for our faith and life as believers in Jesus Christ. (2 Timothy 3:16-17, 2 Peter 1:20-21, 2 Timothy 1:13, Psalm 119:105, Psalm 119:160, Psalm 12:6, Proverbs 30:5)
We believe that there is one God existing eternally in three persons, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. (Genesis 1:1, Genesis 1:26-27, Genesis 3:22, Matthew 28:19, 1 Peter 1:2, 2 Corinthians 13:14)
We believe that Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit and was born of the Virgin Mary, and is both true God and true man. (Matthew 1:22-23, Isaiah 9:6, John 1:1-5, 1 Timothy 6:14-15, Titus 2:13)
We believe that man was created in the image of God. Because of man's sin, he incurred not only physical death, but a spiritual death. Man's sin leads to eternal separation from God. (Genesis 1:27, Psalm 8:3-6, Isaiah 53:6, Romans 3:23, Isaiah 59:1-2)
We believe that Jesus Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures. He served as the substitutionary sacrifice in our place. All who put their faith and trust in Jesus Christ are justified before God through the work of Jesus and his shed blood. (Romans 3:25, Romans 5:9, 1 Corinthians 15:3-4, Ephesians 1:7-8, Colossians 1:20, Revelation 1:5-6)
We believe that Jesus Christ was buried and was resurrected on the third day. After forty days with his apostles, Jesus ascended to Heaven where he currently works on our behalf as High Priest, Intercessor, and Advocate. (Hebrews 4:14-15, 1 Corinthians 15:3-4, Romans 1:3-4, Acts 1:9-11, Titus 2:13)
We believe in the personal, bodily visible, imminent return of Jesus Christ. (Luke 21:27, Revelation 1:7, 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17)
We believe that everyone who, through faith, receives Jesus Christ as Savior are born again and indwelt with the Holy Spirit. At this time, they become children of God. (Romans 6:23, Ephesians 2:8-9, John 14:6, John 1:12, Titus 3:5, Galatians 3:26, Romans 5:1)
We believe in the bodily resurrection of the righteous and the unrighteous. Those who have been saved will spend eternity in Heaven, while lose who are lost will be separated from God forever in a place called Hell. (Matthew 22:31-32, Matthew 25:31-46; Revelation 20:11-15)
We believe that true believers are eternally secure in Jesus Christ and that they cannot lose their salvation. However, sin may interrupt the joy of their fellowship with God and may bring the loving discipline of the Heavenly Father. (John 10:29, 2 Timothy 1:12, Hebrews 7:25, Hebrews 10:10-10:14, 1 Peter 1:3-5)
We believe that the Holy Spirit is a person, is God, and possesses all the divine attributes of God. The Holy Spirit baptizes, indwells, and seals all believers at the time of salvation. He fills believers in response to confession of sin and yielding to the Spirit's leading. The Holy Spirit gives us fruit and gifts to build the Kingdom of God. (2 Corinthians 3:17, John 16:7-13, John 14:16-17, Acts 1:8, 1 Corinthians 2:12, 1 Corinthians 3:16, Ephesians 1:13, Galatians 5:25, Ephesians 5:18)
We believe that the goal of every Christian is to grow in spiritual maturity through obedience to God's Word and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. (Romans 15:15-16, 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8)
