What We Believe

We believe that the Bible is God’s Holy Word and reveals who God is and His will for our lives.  (2 Timothy 3:16-17) 

We believe in one God in the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  (Matthew 3:16-17; John 14:15-21,23-27) 

We believe Jesus is God’s Son and our Savior.  (John 3:16) 

We believe that every person is created in God’s image and is of immeasurable worth, but we also believe that because of people’s willful sin, that they are separated from God and in jeopardy of facing eternal punishment.  (Genesis 1:26; Isaiah 53:6; Romans 3:23, 6:23) 

We believe that salvation and forgiveness are available only by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.  (Ephesians 2:8-9) 

We believe that a person receives God’s grace by placing their faith in His Son, Jesus Christ, by repenting of sins, by confessing Jesus as Lord, and by being baptized (immersed) into Jesus for the forgiveness of sins.  (Acts 2:38-41, Acts 8:26-40, Acts 10:34-48, Acts 16:25-34) 

We believe that the church is the Body of Christ on earth, and is led and empowered by the Holy Spirit for the purpose of bringing glory to God, building one another up in faith, and making disciples of Jesus.  (Matthew 28:18-20; Ephesians 4:1-16)
