We believe in one infinite God, Whom the Bible reveals in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, being of one essence and co-equal in every divine perfection and alone worthy of human worship, love, and obedience.

​

We believe God became a man in the person of Jesus Christ, being conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary.

​

We believe in His divine nature, His sinless life, and His death on the cross as a perfect and final substitutionary sacrifice for human sin. He was resurrected, and ascended into Heaven, and is our Advocate before the Father.

​

We believe in the personal and bodily return of Jesus Christ in the glory of the Father to establish His promised kingdom upon the earth. 

​

We believe that God created man in His own image, that humans fell by willful disobedience, and that consequently we are each guilty before the moral law of God as sinner by both nature and action. 

​

We believe the Gospel (good news) is that all who receive Jesus Christ by faith are forgiven and saved eternally. This  forgiveness of sin is a gift of God's grace, totally apart from good works, religion, or morality. Salvation is freely given to all who confess their sinfulness and trust in Jesus Christ alone as their all-sufficient Lord and Savior.  

​

We believe the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are inspired of God, inerrant in the original writings, and the only and final authority in all matters of life and faith. 

​

We believe Christ's Church is universal, encompassing all born-again believers, regardless of organizational or denominational affiliations. Believers who hold to orthodox and biblical faith are one in Christ.

​

We believe water baptism is an outward symbol of the believer's spiritual union with Christ, established by our Lord as an ordinance of the church, and practiced by immersion with allowances for special circumstances that may require an alternate mode of baptism. 

​

We believe the Lord's Supper is a memorial celebration of His death and resurrection, and welcome all believers to share with us around His table. 

​

We believe in the final resurrection of all believers to glorious and everlasting life in God's presence and in the eternal separation from God of the unrepentant in hell.  

​

We believe that God wonderfully and immutably creates each person as male or female, and that these two distinct, complimentary genders together reflect the image and nature of God. 

​

We believe that God created marriage to be exclusively the union of one man and one woman, and that sexual activity is to occur exclusively within that union.
