WHAT WE BELIEVE
The Word of God - We believe
that the Bible is the Word of God, fully inspired and without error in
the original manuscripts, written under the inspiration of the Holy
Spirit, and that it has supreme authority in all matters of faith and
conduct.
The Trinity - We believe that there
is one living and true God, eternally existing in three persons, that
these are equal in every divine perfection, and that they execute
distinct but harmonious offices in the work of creation, providence
and redemption.
God the Father - We believe in God, the
Father, an infinite, personal spirit, perfect in holiness, wisdom,
power and love. We believe that He concerns Himself mercifully in the
affairs each person, that He hears and answers prayer, and that He
saves from sin and death all who come to Him through Jesus Christ.
Jesus Christ - We believe in Jesus
Christ, God’s only begotten Son, conceived by the Holy Spirit. We
believe in His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles and teachings. We
believe in His substitutionary atoning death, bodily resurrection,
ascension into heaven, perpetual intercession for His people, and
personal visible return to earth.
The Holy Spirit - We believe in the Holy
Spirit who came forth from the Father and Son to convict the world of
sin, righteousness, and judgment, and to regenerate, sanctify, and
empower all who believe in Jesus Christ. We believe that the Holy
spirit indwells every believer in Christ, and that He is an abiding
helper, teacher and guide.
