OUR BELIEFS

The bible

We believe the Bible is the complete word of God. It was given to us so we may know and love God, understand the gift of salvation, and serves as our source for spiritual growth. (2 Tim 3:16; Heb 4:12; Ps 119:105; Prov 30:5; Is 55:11)

GOD

We believe in one God who exists as three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Sprit (The Trinity). (1 John 5:7; Mat 3:16‐17; 28:19; Col 2:9)

Jesus

We believe Jesus is God in human form. We believe He was without sin. We believe He allowed Himself to be crucified in order to pay the penalty for all our sin, He rose again from the grave on the third day, and now sits on the right hand of the Father in heaven. (1 Tim 3:16; Luke 1:35; Isa 7:14; Mat 4:1‐11; Heb 4:15; 1 John 2:16; Rom 5:11‐21; 1 Cor 15:3‐4; Col 3:1)

 
 

Salvation

We believe that all sin and have fallen short of the glory of God and must be reconciled to God through the death of Jesus Christ. We believe salvation is by God’s grace alone on the basis of the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross and in His resurrection. We believe that salvation is available to anyone who personally believe in their heart and confess with their mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord. We believe this salvation cannot be reversed or lost. (Eph 2:8‐9; Rom 10:9‐10; John 10:28‐29; 1 John 2:19; Rom 8:35‐ 39; 1 Pet 1:5)

 
 
 
 
 
 

Holy Spirit

We believe Holy Spirit is fully God and is the earthly manifestation of God on the Earth. We believe it is Holy Spirit who gives us an awareness of God, and apart from His presence we could not recognize or understand God properly. We believe Holy Spirit helps people in a number of ways as our Counselor, Comforter, and Advocate. (1 Cor 3:16; John 16:7; 1 Cor 12:13; Eph 1:3‐14; 1 Cor 2:9‐16; 2 Cor 3:17‐18)

 
 
 

THE CHURCH

We believe the Church should be a witness to the world. We believe every member of the church has the responsibility to minister the Word of God and support the ministry through prayer, holy living, tithes, and offering. (Acts 14:23; Eph 1:22-23; 4:11-16; 1 Tim 3:1-13; 1 Thess 4:13-18; Rev 19:7-8; 21:2; Mat 28:18-20; 1 Cor 11:23-34; 1 Tim 3:1-13; 1 Pet 5:1-4; Heb 13:17; 1 Cor 16:2; Mal 3:10; Acts 4:34-37; 2 Cor 8:7; Acts 2:41-47; 13:1-4)
