Statement of Faith

I. 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. We believe in igniting passion for God through the unapologetic preaching of his word of truth 2Timothy 4 :1-5, Hebrews 4:12.

II. The Trinity
We believe that there is one living and true God; eternally existing in three persons; that these are equal in divine perfection; and that they execute distinct but harmonious offices in the work of creation, providence, and redemption.

III. 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 of mankind, that He hears and answers prayer, and that He saves from sin and death all who come to Him through Jesus Christ.

IV. 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.

V. Regeneration
We believe that all people are sinners by nature and by choice and are, therefore, under condemnation. We believe that those who repent of their sins and trust in Jesus Christ as Savior are regenerated by the Holy Spirit.

VI. The Church
We believe in the universal church, a living spiritual body of which Christ is the head and all regenerated persons are members. We believe in the local church, consisting of a company of believers in Jesus Christ, baptized on a credible profession of faith, and associated for worship, work, and fellowship. We believe that God has laid upon the members of the local church the primary task of giving the Gospel of Jesus Christ to a lost world.

VII. Christian Conduct
We believe that Christians should live for the glory of God and the well being of their fellow men and women, that their conduct should be blameless before the world, that they should be faithful stewards of their possessions, and that they should seek to realize for themselves and others the full status of maturity in Christ.

VIII. Religious Liberty
We believe that every human being has direct relations with God, and is responsible to God alone in all matters of faith, that each church is independent and must be free from interference by an ecclesiastical or political authority, that therefore Church and State must be kept separate as having different functions, each fulfilling its duties free from dictation or patronage of the other.

VIIII. Holy Bible
The Old and New Testaments are both verbally inspired by God and without error in the original manuscripts. The Scriptures are the standard by which all doctrine and behavior are to ultimately discerned (Prov. 30:5,6; II Tim. 3:16,17; II Pet. 1:21).

X. Humans
Man was initially created in the image of God, but through disobedience lost his once perfect nature and standing with God (Gen. 1:26,27; 3). The entire human race from Adam to present has failed to meet God's righteous standard (Ps. 14:2,3; Rms. 3:23). Humankind, being totally depraved, is in need of regeneration/the new birth. Regeneration is an act initiated by God the Holy Spirit and the result of God's grace (Tit. 3:4,6; Jn. 1:12,13; 3:3,5-8,etc.).

XI. Salvation
Salvation is by grace through faith and not the result of human effort. Our salvation is in Jesus Christ and apart from His work on the cross there is no other means of escaping the wrath of God that all humans deserve (Eph. 2:8,9; Rms. 6:23; Jn. 14:6; Acts 4:12; I Tim. 2:5).

XII. Jesus Christ and second Coming
We believe Jesus Christ is the express image of the invisible God who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, and born of the Virgin Mary. He died upon the cross for the sins of the world, and whoever truly trusts in Him shall be saved for all eternity. He died, was buried, and rose again on the third day according to the scriptures. He ascended to heaven in a glorified body where he now sits at the right hand of the Father. He will one day return and judge the world in righteousness (Heb. 1:3; Jn. 1:14; I Cor. 15:3-7; Acts 17:31). Jesus Christ's personal return will take place at God's appointed time. We know neither the day nor the hour of his return, but we can be certain He will! Those who have received Christ as Lord and Savior will enjoy eternal bliss, those without Christ will suffer eternal damnation (Matt. 24: 36,37; Acts 1:11; Jn. 5:28,29; II Pet. 3:10; I Thess. 4:16,18).
