What we Believe

There is only one true God who is the eternal King, Creator, and Redeemer of all that is. He is perfectly holy, just, loving and truthful. He has revealed Himself to be eternally self-existent – one being in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.  (Deut. 6:4, Isaiah 43:10-11, Matt. 28:19, Luke 3:22, John 1:1-5)

The Bible to be the inspired and only infallible and authoritative Word of God. (II Tim. 3:15-17, I Thessalonians 2:13, II Peter 1:21)

The Lord Jesus Christ, the one and only Son of God, was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin, Mary, is God’s Anointed One, empowered by the Holy Spirit to inaugurate God’s Kingdom on Earth. He lived a sinless life, was crucified for our sins, died, was buried, resurrected, and ascended into Heaven, and is now alive today, in the presence of God the Father and His people. He is both fully God and fully man. (Matt. 1:23, Luke 1:31-35, Heb. 7:26, I Peter 2:22, Acts 10:38, I Cor. 15:3, II Cor. 5:21, Matt. 28:6, Luke 24:39, I Cor. 15:4, Acts 1:9, Phill. 2:9-11)

Humankind was created in the image of God to know and enjoy Him yet we willfully rejected the Lordship and glory of God for which we were intended. Because of this, sickness, death, and judgment entered the world and now creation experiences the effects and consequences of sin. (Gen. 1:26-27, Rom. 5:12-19)

We are saved by God’s grace, through faith in the person and work of Jesus Christ. Anyone can be restored to fellowship with God through repenting, believing and receiving Jesus as their Savior and Lord. The Holy Spirit convicts, regenerates, justifies, and adopts us as we enter the Kingdom of God as His sons and daughters. (Eph. 2:8, Acts 4:12, Titus 2:11, Rom. 5:8-9, Rom. 10:11, John 16:8, Titus 3:5, I Cor. 6:11, Rom. 8:15, Gal. 4:4-7)

In the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a holy life and minister supernaturally. The baptism of the Holy Spirit is poured out on believers that they might have God’s power to be His witnesses. (I Cor. 3:16, II Tim 1:14, Rom. 8:11, I Cor. 6:11, Matt. 3:11, Acts 1:8, Acts 2:4)

The victorious redemptive work of Christ on the cross provides freedom from the power of the enemy - sin, lies, sickness, and torment. (I John 3:8, Col. 2:13-15, Eph. 1:7)

Baptism- is an outward sign of an inward work. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. (Matthew 28:19-20)

We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. (Romans 6:4)
