The Holy Bible is 100% the Word of God. It alone is the final authority in determining all doctrinal truths. The Bible, in its original writing, is both inspired by God and inerrant.

(2 Timothy 3.16; 2 Peter 1.20-21; Proverbs 30.5; Romans 16.25-26)

In one God is Three distinct Persons: The Father, the Son (Jesus) and the Holy Spirit. They are all co-equal and co-eternal.

(1 John 5.7; Genesis 1.26; Matthew 3.16-17 and 28.19; Luke 1.35; Isaiah 9.6)

Jesus Christ is God the Son, the second person of the Trinity. On earth, Jesus was 100% God and 100% man. He is the only man ever to have lived a sinless life.

(John 1.1, 14 and 20.28; 1 Timothy 3.16; Isaiah 9.6; Matthew 1.23)

Jesus Christ was conceived by God the Father through the Holy Spirit in the virgin Mary’s womb; therefore He is both the Son of God and the Son of Man.

(Matthew 1.18; Luke 1.35)

All believers are called by God to repent and believe the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  Repentance is a commitment to turn away from sin in every area of our lives and to follow Christ.

(Acts 2.38; 1 John 1.9)

Salvation is a free gift of God and is the result of a relationship with the living Christ.  Through salvation we become “born again” and become children of God.  Born again means the believer in Christ is given new life by God’s Spirit.  The age of accountability for any person is the age when they can understand they need salvation from sin and that Christ Jesus is the only Savior for mankind.  Salvation is by God’s grace through faith in Christ, not of man’s works.

(John 3.3-21; Romans 10.9-10; Ephesians 2.8-10)

Sanctified means to be set apart as one dedicated to God’s use.  This is an ongoing process of yielding to God in order to complete the development of Christ’s character in us.

( 1 Thessalonians 2.1-3; 2 Corinthians 6.14-18)

The blood of Jesus Christ shed on the cross of Calvary is 100% sufficient to cleanse man of all sins.  Jesus allowed Himself to be punished for the sins we have committed, enabling all those who believe to be free from the penalty of sin, which is eternal death.

(1 John 1.7; Revelation 1.5 & 5.9; Colossians 1.20; Romans 3.10-12)

The Church, which is made up of individuals who are surrendered to Christ, is collectively called the Body of Christ.  The Church is the habitation of God through the Holy Spirit, established on earth for the fulfillment of Jesus’ Great Commission.  Every person who is born of the Spirit is an integral part of the Church, gifted and appointed as Christ wills, as a part of His Body.

(Matthew 28:19-20; Ephesians 1:22 & 2:19-22; 1 Corinthians 12:12-28)

After living one’s life on earth, believers will be received into Heaven where they will be eternally present with God.  Heaven is the eternal dwelling place of all who believe in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

(Matthew 5:3 & 12 & 6:20 & 19:21 & 25:34; Hebrews 11:13-16; 1 Peter 1:4)

After living one’s life on earth, unbelievers will be judged by God because they have rejected Christ as Savior and sent to Hell where they will be eternally separated from God, existing in eternal suffering and torment.

(Mark 9:43-48; Luke 16:19-31; Revelation 14:9-11 & 20:12-15 & 21:6-8)

Following faith in the LORD Jesus Christ, a new Christian is commanded by Christ to be baptized by total immersion in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.  This is a public confession of Christ and an act of obedience to His command.  Baptism does not impart salvation.

(Matthew 28:19; Mark 1:9 & 16:16; Luke 9:26; Acts 2:38 & 8:12, 26-38;  & 10:47-48; Romans 6:4; 1 Corinthians 12:13)

We believe that marriage is the creation of God, not men.  He established it as the union of one biological man and one biological woman, to be a life-long covenant and to serve as the foundation of healthy families and societies.  Sexual involvement with any person outside of the context of marriage is prohibited by God in Scripture.

(Genesis 2:21-24; Exodus 20:14; Leviticus 18; Proverbs 5:18-19; Romans 1:18-27; Hebrews 13:4)

Christians are people who have invited the Lord Jesus to come and live inside of them by His Spirit.  They are putting their trust in what Jesus did for them when He died, was buried, and rose again from the dead.

(John 1.12 & 14.17-22; Romans 8.11; Revelation 3.20)Text...

Given at Pentecost, He is the promise of the Father, sent by Jesus after His ascension, to empower the Church to fulfill its’ mission on the earth.

(Matthew 3.11; Mark 16.17; Acts 1.5, 8 and 2.1-4, 17, 38-39; and Acts 8.14-17 and 10.38, 44-47; 1 Corinthians 14.1-9 )

Every believer in Christ who is baptized with the Holy Spirit is given spiritual gifts to be used in ministry under Christ’s direction.

(I Corinthians 12:4-11; Romans 12:4-8)

Believing human physicians can be beneficial, we believe that the Great Physician, Christ Jesus, through the prayer of faith can heal sick people according to His will.   

(Psalm 103:2-3; Isaiah 53:5; Matthew 8:16-17; Acts 8:6-7; James 5:14-16)

Jesus Christ was physically resurrected from the dead in a glorified body three days after His death on the cross.  One day, all believers in Christ will also be physically resurrected in their glorified bodies to eternal reward with God.

(John 2:19-21 & 20:26-28 & 21:4; Acts 24:14-16; I Corinthians 15; Philippians 1)

We are committed to protecting and enhancing the quality of life of all persons from conception to natural death

(Exodus 20:13; Psalm 139:13-16; Proverbs 31:8; Luke 1:41-44)

Jesus Christ will physically and visibly return to the earth for the second time to establish His Kingdom.  This will occur at a date undisclosed by the Scriptures.

(Matthew 24:36-41 & 26:63-64; Acts 1:9-11; Revelation 1:7)

We also believe that prior to this visible return of Christ, He will gather His church from every generation in an event called the Rapture.

(1 Thessalonians 4:13-18)

The Lord’s Supper is a unique time of communion with Christ and His church when the elements of bread and grape juice, which represent the Body and Blood of the LORD Jesus Christ, are taken in remembrance of Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross.  This is an important time of celebrating Christ’s victory over sin, death, and all evil which Jesus instructed His followers to observe.  The Lord’s Supper does not impart salvation.

(Matthew 26:26-29; Mark 16:16; 1 Corinthians 10:16-17 & 11:23-32)

As Christians we believe that we belong to God.  We are His servants and He is our Master.  This means that our lives,  talents,  relationships, and material possessions are at His disposal.  Stewardship is the awareness that God has charged us to wisely use what He has given us, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, to bring glory to Him and advance His Kingdom on the earth.

(Genesis 1:28-31; Malachi 3:6-18; Matthew 25:14-30; Romans 14:7-9)

We believe that every Christian is called to become a true disciple of Christ.  Discipleship involves a proactive lifetime commitment to learn and submit to all Jesus Christ taught.  This includes a determination to replicate His character in every area of life.  The passion of every true Christian disciple is to authentically and faithfully represent Jesus to all people.

(Matthew 28:18-20 & 10:25; Ephesians 4:11-13 & 5:1; 1 Corinthians 9:23-26)
