Doctrinal Statement

We Believe in one God, who exists in three Persons — the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. He is loving, holy, and just. (Deut. 6:4).

We Believe the Bible is God’s Word. It, in the 39 books of the Old Testament and 27 books of the New Testament, is inspired and accurate. It is our perfect guide in all matters of life. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)

We Believe sin has separated us all from God, and that we are reconciled only through Jesus Christ. Those who persistently reject Christ will in their eternal state exist in a conscious isolation from God in endless torment and anguish. (Ephesians 2:1-7)

We Believe Jesus Christ is both God and Man. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. He led a sinless life, took all our sins upon Himself, died and rose again, and we are saved by his shed blood. Today, He is seated at the right hand of the Father as our High Priest and Mediator. He will return for His Church.

(Hebrews 4:14-16; Col. 1:15-23)

We Believe that salvation is the gift of God to man. This gift is affected by grace through faith in Jesus Christ and it produces works pleasing to God. (Titus 3:5-8; Eph. 2:8-10)

We Believe that water baptism is an outward act that demonstrates a believer's identification with the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. (Matthew 28:19-20; Romans 6:3-4; Col. 2:11-12)

We Believe the Holy Spirit is our Comforter. He guides us in all areas of our lives. He also blesses us with spiritual gifts and empowers us to yield the fruit of the Spirit. (Acts 1:8; John 14:26; John 3:5-6; 1 Corinthians 12:7; Gal. 5:22-26)

We Believe the Holy Communion is a celebration of Jesus’ death and our remembrance of Him. (1 Cor. 11:23-26).

We Believe Biblical marriage consists only of a faithful, heterosexual union between one genetic male and one genetic female, and biblical marriage is the only legitimate and acceptable context for a sexual relationship. We believe in gender roles for the family and church as described in the Scriptures. (Genesis 2:22-24; Matthew 19:4-6, Hebrews 13:4-7 Ephesians 5:22-33, Titus 1:5-9)
