What we believe about...
Scripture
We believe the entire Bible is the inspired Word of God and that men were moved by the Spirit to write the very words of Scripture. Therefore, the Bible is without error and we recognize Scripture as the final authority in our lives.
God
We believe in one God who exists in three persons (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). We believe that Jesus Christ is the second member of the trinity (the Son of God) who became flesh to reveal God to man and to become the Savior of the world.
Mankind
We believe that man was created in the image of God to have fellowship with Him, but was alienated from that relationship through sinful disobedience. As a result, man is totally incapable of coming back into a right relationship with God by his own effort.
Salvation
We believe that the shed blood of Jesus Christ on the cross provides the sole basis for the forgiveness of sins. Therefore, salvation only occurs when a person places his faith in the death and resurrection of Christ as the sufficient payment for his sin and salvation is eternally secure.
Christian Life
We believe that every Christian should live for Christ and not for himself. By obedience to the Word and daily yielding to the Spirit, every believer should mature and become conformed to the image of Christ.
The Church
We believe the church is the body of Christ of which Jesus Christ is the Head. The members are those who have trusted by faith in the finished work of Christ. The purpose of the church is to glorify God by loving Him and by making Him known to a lost world.
