“Statement of Faith”
God
|
|
We believe in one God who is sovereign, creator of all things, and eternally existing in a Holy Trinity as three divine persons: the Father, the Son Jesus Christ, and The Holy Spirit.
|
Jesus Christ
|
|
We believe that Jesus Christ came to earth as the eternal Son of God, fully human and also fully divine. He lived a sinless life, was crucified, rose bodily from the dead, and sits at the right hand of God the Father having thus paid sin’s penalty for all who trust Him.
|
Holy Spirit
|
|
We believe that the Holy Spirit lives in God’s people and gives them the power and wisdom to trust and obey Jesus Christ.
|
The Bible
|
|
We believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are inspired by the Holy Spirit, without error in the original writings, and are the authoritative Word of God for faith and practice in life.
|
Mankind
|
|
We believe that all people are sinners by nature, that the penalty for sin is eternal death and separation from God, and that we are totally incapable of securing our own salvation.
|
Salvation
|
|
We believe that salvation is a free gift to all who place their faith in Jesus Christ as their Lord. We are incapable of doing anything to earn salvation by our own efforts.
|
Christian Living
|
|
We believe that God calls us to live out our faith with care for one another, justice for the oppressed, and compassion for the poor. Thus our lives will demonstrate what it means to have a growing relationship with God.
|
Christ’s Return
|
|
We believe that Jesus will return, bodily and visibly, to judge all mankind and to receive His people to Himself. This is our motivation to live a godly life of sacrificial service and energetic mission.
