What We Believe

The sole basis of our belief is the Bible, which is uniquely God-inspired, without error, and the final authority on all matter on which it bears.

As the Bible teaches, there is one God, eternally existing in three persons-Father, Son, and Holy Spirit-each possessing all the attributes of the Deity.

God created humans to have fellowship with Him, but they defied God by sinfully going their own way.  As a result, we need God’s saving grace to end our alienation from God.  Salvation comes only through God’s saving grace-not human effort-and must be received personally by repentance and faith.

 Jesus Christ, second person of the Trinity, lived a sinless life on earth and voluntarily paid for our sin by dying on the cross as our substitute.  This accomplishes salvation for all who receive grace by trusting in Him alone.  He rose from the dead and is the only mediator between us and God.  He will return to earth to consummate history.

The Holy Spirit draws sinners to Christ and equips believers for personal growth and service in the church.  The church’s role is to glorify God and serve those in need.  At the end, everyone will experience bodily resurrection and judgment.  Those forgiven in Christ will enjoy eternal fellowship with God.

of faith by contacting  the church office.
