Our Beliefs

For from him and through him and for him are all things. To him be the glory forever! Amen.(Romans 11:36)

We believe in one God, creator of all things, infinitely perfect and eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness.(2 Timothy 3:16)

We affirm the Bible as the inspired word of God and the authoritative guide for faith and practice.

But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. (1 Peter 3:15)

Jesus Christ, God’s only Son, is fully God and fully man, the only savior for the sins of the world, crucified on our behalf, and resurrected to bring us eternal life.

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast.(Ephesians 2:8-9)

Salvation is a gift from God through Christ and is received by personal faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.(John 14:26)

The Holy Spirit indwells and empowers believers and is active in the world to make Christ known.

Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.

(1 Corinthians 12:27)

The Church is composed of all who have accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. We are called to evangelize the lost and to engage in fellowship, worship, and ministry.

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. (John 14:3)

We believe in the blessed hope that Jesus Christ will return for His Church.

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:16)

Believers are to live a holy life, grow in grace, and strive to be witnesses in their actions and words.

Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established.” (Romans 13:1)

We believe that civil government is ordained by God for the maintenance of good order and justice and are called to pray for and obey our leaders.

Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. (2 Corinthians 9:7)

We encourage believers to give generously and joyfully to the work of the Lord, reflecting a spirit of gratitude towards God.

Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. (Philippians 4:5)

Believers are encouraged to practice moderation in all aspects of their lives, demonstrating self-control and balance as a witness to the peace and order that God brings.

Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. (Acts 2:38)

We believe in the power of repentance to renew our relationship with God, the redemption provided through Christ’s sacrifice, and the regeneration of our spirit by the Holy Spirit, leading us to new life through baptism by immersion (Water Baptism).
