Statement of Faith

We believe the Bible is the complete, inspired, infallible, Word of God, the final and supreme authority for faith and life. (2 Tim. 3:16, 2 Peter 1:19-21)

We believe in the Trinity; that there is one God, Who is eternally existent in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. (Gen. 1:1, Isaiah 43:10-11, John 5:24, 1 John 5:7)

We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His literal bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory. (John 1:1, Matt. 1:23, Hebrews 4:15, 1 Cor. 15:3-4, Acts 1:11)

We believe that man may receive salvation from the guilt and penalty of sin solely by trusting Jesus Christ as his personal Savior. Salvation is a free gift, wholly granted by Divine grace alone. Any and all of man’s works are ineffectual for salvation. (John 3:3-7, John 3:16-19, Romans 10:9, Titus 3:4-7, Ephesians 2:8-9)

We believe in the continuing ministry of the Holy Spirit to convict and convince men of sin. He bears witness of the truth, and is the agent of the new birth. The Holy Spirit indwells the believer – guides, instructs, and empowers the Christian to live a Godly life. (John 14:16-18, 1 Cor. 6:19-20, John 16:8-13)

We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost: they who are saved unto eternal life, and they who are lost unto eternal punishment. (John 3:36)

We believe that the term “marriage” has only one meaning and that is marriage sanctioned by God. We believe that God ordained marriage and the family as the foundational institution of human society, and that the only legitimate marriage is a sacred and permanent covenant relationship between one man and one woman, symbolizing the union of Christ and his Church. (Genesis 2:18-25, Matthew 19:4-6)
