What We Believe

CrossThe Godhead~
We believe in one Triune God, eternally existing in three persons--Father, Son, and Holy Spirit:  Co-eternal in being, co-eternal in nature, co-equal in power and glory, having the same attributes and perfections.

The person and work of Christ~
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God became man without ceasing to be God, having been conceived by the Holy Spirit, and born of the Virgin Mary, in order that He might reveal God and redeem sinful man. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ accomplished our redemption through His death on the cross as a representative, vicarious, substitution sacrifice; and that our justification is made sure by His literal, physical resurrection from the dead. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ ascended into heaven and is now exalted at the right hand of God, where, as our High Priest, He fulfills the ministry of representative, intercessor, and advocate.

The person and work of the Holy Spirit~
We believe that the Holy Spirit is a member of the godhead and a person who convicts the world of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment; and that He is the Supernatural agent in regeneration, baptizing all believers into the body of Christ.

Humanity~
We believe that man was created in the image and likeness of God, but that through Adam's sin the race fell, inherited a sinful nature, and became alienated from God. Man has a radical pervasiveness to sin, and of himself is utterly unable to remedy his lost condition

Salvation~
We believe that salvation is the gift of God brought to man by grace and received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, whose precious blood was shed on Calvary for the forgiveness of our sins. Man can never make up for his sin by self-improvement or good works. Only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God's offer of forgiveness can man be saved from sin's penalty.

The Church~
We believe that the church, which is the body and espoused bride of Christ, is a spiritual organism made up of all born-again persons of this present age.

The Bible~
We believe that the Bible is God's Word to all men. It was written by human authors under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living.

Brokenness~
We believe that in the hurting hearts and lives of the people, Christ brings healing and hope. In the loving community of God, they can experience unconditional love and grace.
