Summary of Our Beliefs

The Holy Scripture

God has revealed everything necessary for life and salvation in the sixty-six books of the Bible, the Word of God. All Scripture is inerrant and infallible, transmitted through human authors by the Holy Spirit's inspiration. Scripture alone is the final authority in all matters of doctrine and practice. The authority of Scripture comes from its Author, not from the opinions of men. 

God

There is one true and living God who exists in three eternally distinct persons : the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are one in being, united in purpose, and equally worthy of glory and adoration. God is invisible, eternal, omnipresent, almighty, all-knowing, unchanging, dependent upon none, sovereign, righteous, holy, just, gracious, loving, merciful, patient, and good . 

Creation

God created all that now exists in six days and from nothing, and it was all very good. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit worked together in creation. Out of all living things, only man was created in  God's image. God granted him dominion over all lesser forms of life and over the earth itself. 

The Birth and Life of Christ

God sent His Son into the world to save His people from their sins. Conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary, Jesus was and is both God and man. He was tempted in all things yet without sin, living the perfect life of righteousness on behalf of His people.

The Death, Resurrection and Ascension of Christ

Christ died on the cross as the perfect sacrifice for sin, forever finishing the work of atonement for His people by his blood. On the third day,  Jesus rose bodily from the grave. The resurrection affirms Christ's deity and authority and assures believers of their future bodily resurrection. Jesus ascended into heaven to appear in the presence of God as our perpetual High Priest, presenting Himself as the only acceptable sacrifice for sin. He is the one and only Mediator between God and men, and Head of  His church. He intercedes forever on behalf of His people and rules over all things for their sake.
 

Salvation through Christ Alone

Salvation from sin is possible only through Christ, and Christ alone. Salvation is by grace, through faith.

Eph 2:8-10 - For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. 
 

The Return of Christ

The Lord Jesus Christ shall come again to raise the dead bodily, both righteous and unrighteous. The justified shall enjoy everlasting life in the presence of God in heaven, while anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life, will be cast into the lake of fire (Revelation 20:15).

The Glory of God
Christians are privileged to live for God's glory alone by knowing and enjoying His Person, submitting to His authority, and relying on His goodness. 

For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to whom be glory forever. Amen. (Romans 11:36)
