THE BIBLE

We believe in the authority of the Scriptures, in the Old and New Testaments.

                                             

BELIEF IN GOD

We believe in the triune God, God the Father, God the Son, (Jesus Christ) and the Holy Spirit. Belief in God is the foundation of our faith. We believe in the living God who created all things and continues to guide, love, and sustain us. Through His presence, we find hope, purpose, and direction for our lives. Trusting in God means walking by faith, knowing that He is always with us and working for our good.

 

ATONEMENT FOR SIN

We believe that atonement for sin was made by the sacrificial and substitutionary death of Jesus Christ.

 

THE RESURRECTION

We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in his ascension into heaven, and his priestly intercession.

 

SALVATION

We believe salvation is the gift of God by grace alone and received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, and that this faith is manifested in works pleasing to God.

 

THE HOLY SPIRIT

We believe the Holy Spirit is the Promise of the Father, the Comforter who indwells and places every believer in the Body of Christ, bestows spiritual gifts upon the Church and convicts the world of sin.

INDWELLING OF THE SPIRIT

While all believers are indwelt by the Spirit of God (Romans 8), we believe the baptism of the Holy Spirit is a definite endowment of power for service and is separate from conversion.

 

WATER BAPTISM/HOLY COMMUNION

We believe in water Baptism by the immersion in water. We believe in partaking in the Lord's supper, both of which are administered to those who are born again.
