Statement of Faith

1. The Scriptures

We believe the Bible, consisting of the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments, is the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God. It is the final standard for faith, life, and godliness. (2 Timothy 3:16–17; 2 Peter 1:20–21)

2. The Trinity

We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—equal in power and glory, who created all things and sustains all things. (Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14)

3. God the Father

We believe God the Father is the sovereign Creator and Sustainer of all things. He is holy, just, and loving, working all things for His glory and the good of those who love Him. (Genesis 1:1; Romans 8:28; Ephesians 1:11)

4. Jesus Christ

We believe in the full deity and full humanity of the Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, substitutionary atoning death on the cross, bodily resurrection, ascension into heaven, present intercession for believers, and personal return in power and glory. (John 1:1–14; Philippians 2:5–11; Hebrews 4:15)

5. The Holy Spirit

We believe the Holy Spirit convicts the world of sin, regenerates and sanctifies believers, indwells all who trust in Christ, empowers them for godly living and service, and gives spiritual gifts for the building up of the Church. (John 14:16–17; Acts 1:8; Galatians 5:22–23)

6. Humanity and Sin

We believe that all people are created in the image of God and possess inherent dignity, value, and purpose. Because of Adam’s sin, all have inherited a sinful nature and are separated from God, under His just judgment, and in need of salvation. (Genesis 1:26–27; Romans 3:23; Ephesians 2:1–3)

7. Salvation

We believe that salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. It is not based on human works but on the finished work of Christ on the cross. Those who repent and believe in Jesus Christ are justified, adopted into God’s family, and given eternal life. (Ephesians 2:8–9; Titus 3:5–7; Romans 5:1)

8. The Church

We believe the Church is the body of Christ, composed of all believers, called to worship God, grow in faith, make disciples, and serve as His witnesses in the world. The local church is an expression of this universal body and is central to God's mission. (Matthew 28:18–20; Acts 2:42–47; Ephesians 4:11–16)

9. Christian Living

We believe that believers are called to live in obedience to God’s Word, to walk in holiness, to love God and neighbor, and to seek justice, mercy, and truth in all aspects of life. (Romans 12:1–2; Galatians 5:16–26; Micah 6:8)

10. The Return of Christ and Eternal Destiny

We believe in the personal and visible return of Jesus Christ to judge the living and the dead, to establish His eternal Kingdom, and to make all things new. Believers will enjoy eternal life in God’s presence, while the unrepentant will face eternal separation from God. (1 Thessalonians 4:13–18; Revelation 21:1–5; Matthew 25:31–46)
