STATEMENT OF FAITH

  • We believe the Bible is the only written Word of God; it is inspired by Him and is wholly trustworthy and authoritative. (2 Tim. 3:15-16)
     

  • We believe in one God, eternally manifested and existent as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Matt. 28:19, John 10:30, John 16:13-15)
     

  • We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ (John 1: 1,14), in His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14, Luke 1:34-35), in His miracles (John 2:11, Acts 10:38), in His vicarious and atoning death (I Cor. 15:3, Heb. 2:9, Heb. 10:10, 14), in His bodily resurrection (I Cor. 15:4, John 2:21-22, Luke 24:6), in His ascension to the right hand of the Father (Acts 1:9, Eph.1:20, Col. 3:1), and in His personal future return to the earth in power and glory. (Mk 13:26, Matt. 16:27)
     

  • We believe in the necessity of regeneration by the Holy Spirit because of man's sinful nature inherited from Adam; we believe that man is justified only through God's grace by personal repentance and faith in Jesus Christ and His shed blood. (John 3:16-19, Rom. 3:23-24, Rom. 5:8-9, Eph. 2:8-10, Titus 3:5)
     

  • We believe in the resurrection of all persons; those who are saved unto the resurrection of life, and those who are lost unto the resurrection of damnation. (John 5:28-29)
     

  • We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ. (Rom. 8:9, I Cor. 12:12-13, Gal. 3:26-28)
     

  • We believe in the present, active ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the believer receives sanctification and the power to live a Godly life. (Rom. 8:13-14, I Cor. 3:16, I Cor. 6:19-20, Eph. 5:18, Eph. 4:30)
     

  • We believe that God wonderfully and immutably creates each person as male and female.  These two distinct, complementary genders together reflect the image and nature of God (Gen. 1:26-27).  Rejection of one’s biological sex is a rejection of the image of God within that person.
     

  • We believe that the term “marriage” has only one meaning: the uniting of one man and one woman in a single, exclusive union, as delineated in Scripture (Gen. 2:18-25).
     

  • We believe that any form of sexual immorality (including adultery, fornication, homosexual behavior, bisexual conduct, bestiality, incest, and use of pornography) is sinful and offensive to God (Matt. 15:18-20; I Cor. 6:9-10).
