OUR BELIEFS

WE BELIEVE

We Believe the scriptures are inspired by God and declare His design and plan for mankind.

We Believe there is only one true God revealed in three persons…Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (commonly known as the Trinity).

We Believe in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ. As God’s son Jesus was both human and divine.

We Believe though originally good, man willingly fell to sin–ushering evil and death, both physical and spiritual, into the world.

We Believe every person can have restored fellowship with God through salvation.

We Believe and practice two ordinances—(1) Water Baptism by immersion after repenting of one’s sins and receiving Christ’s gift of salvation, and (2) Holy Communion (the Lord’s Supper).

We Believe the baptism in the Holy Spirit is a special experience following salvation.

We Believe sanctification initially occurs at salvation and is not only a declaration that a believer is holy, but also a progressive lifelong process of separating from evil as believers continually draw closer to God and become more Christ like.

We Believe the church has a mission to seek and save all who are lost in sin.

We Believe a divinely called and scripturally ordained leadership ministry serves the church.

We Believe divine healing of the sick is a privilege for Christians today and is provided for in Christ’s atonement.

We Believe in the blessed hope—when Jesus raptures His church prior to His return to earth (the second coming).

We Believe in the millennial reign of Christ when Jesus returns with His saints at His second coming and begins His benevolent rule over earth for 1,000 years.

We Believe a final judgment will take place for those who have rejected Christ.

We Believe and look forward to the perfect new heavens and a new earth that Christ is preparing for all people, of all time, who have accepted Him.
