There is one God, Creator and Ruler of all things, infinitely perfect, and eternally existing in three equal persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Genesis 1:26; Matthew 3:16-17; John 1:1-4

Jesus Christ is true God and true man. He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He died on the cross, the complete and final sacrifice for our sins according to the Scriptures. Further, He arose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, where, at the right hand of the Majesty on High, He is now our High Priest and Advocate.

We believe that we are saved by God’s grace through faith alone. No amount of our good works will make us right with God. We also believe that grace and faith express themselves through a lifestyle of good works.

Ephesians 2:8-10

We believe that the only hope for every person is to believe in Jesus Christ, the virgin-born Son of God, who is fully God and fully human. Through faith in Christ’s life, death on the cross and resurrection, sinful people are made right with God.

Romans 3:21-26; 10:9-10, 13; John 3:16; Ephesians 2:1-10

We believe that we are saved by God’s grace through faith alone. No amount of our good works will make us right with God. We also believe that grace and faith express themselves through a lifestyle of good works.

Ephesians 2:8-10

The ministry of the Holy Spirit is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ and during this age, to convict men of sin, regenerate the believing sinner, indwell, guide, instruct, and empower the believer for godly living and service. Man – Man was created in the image of God but fell into sin and is therefore lost, and only through regeneration by the Holy Spirit can salvation and spiritual life be obtained.

We believe that the Holy Spirit lives in every believer, producing fruits in them to live Christ-like lives of godly character.

John 16:7-14

Water baptism by immersion soon after accepting Christ as personal Savior, is a testimony of death to sin and resurrection to a new life. The Lord’s Supper is a memorial service setting forth in sacred and symbolic manner the death of the Lord Jesus Christ; all true believers and only believers should share in it.

Through baptism in the Holy Spirit, believers are empowered and given gifts to serve Christ effectively.

Luke 11:13; Acts 1:8, 2:1-4, 8:17, 10:44-46, 19:6; Romans 8:9-16; Galatians 5:22-23; 1 Corinthians 12

The true Church is composed of all such persons, who through saving faith in Jesus Christ, has been regenerated by the Holy Spirit and are united together in the body of Christ of which He is the head.

We believe that the Church is the Body of Christ, both universally and locally—all those who have been regenerated by the Holy Spirit through faith in Christ. Jesus is Head and Lord over the Church, and its mission is to worship Him and make disciples who follow Him with all their heart.

Matthew 28:18-20; Ephesians 2:19-22; Colossians 1:18

We believe that the Holy Bible (the Scriptures, both Old and New Testaments) is the only inspired, infallible and authoritative source of Christian faith and practice. The Bible is a supreme revelation from God, superior to conscience and reason, though not contrary to reason.

2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21

We believe in the personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ, the establishment of His eternal rule over all, and the final restoration of everything through Him.

Matthew 24:42-44; Acts 1:11, 3:19-21; Colossians 1:15-20; Revelation 11:15

We believe that every person is created in God’s image and deeply loved by Him, but also separated from Him by their sinfulness. Out of God’s great love for us, He sent His Only Son Jesus to die for our sins on the cross and bring us back to Him.

Genesis 1:26; Isaiah 59:1-2; John 3:16; Romans 6:23

We believe that salvation is by grace alone through faith alone, but not by a faith that is alone. Those who are accepted by God solely based on Christ’s righteousness delight to live righteous lives in gratitude for the Gospel of grace. In Christ, believers are renewed in heart and mind by the Holy Spirit, and are progressively made more and more holy in obedient, Christ-like living.

We believe that God ordained marriage as a sacred union and commitment for life between one man and one woman. This conviction regarding the nature and definition of marriage comes from the same biblical authority that informs all our teaching and ministry—the unchangeable and enduring truth of God’s Word.

Jesus confirmed this truth in Matthew 19:4b-5, quoting the passage in the book of Genesis that states: “at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’ and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.’”

These verses, among other Scriptures, clearly identify one biological male and one biological female coming together as God’s design for marriage, excluding the possibility that marriage can be defined in any other way.

Genesis 1:27; 2:24; Matthew 19:4-5; Ephesians 5:31-32

There will be a bodily resurrection of all the dead; of the believer to everlasting blessedness and joy with the Lord, and of the unbeliever to judgment and everlasting conscious punishment.

1 Corinthians 15:51-52, 1 Thessalonians 4:16, Philippians 3:20-21.
