There is one living and true God, eternally existing in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit (the Trinity), equal in power and glory, and that this triune God created, upholds, and governs all things. Only God is worthy of praise, worship,and obedience. (Genesis 1:26; 3:22; Psalm 2:7; Isaiah 48:16; Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14)
That the BIBLE is the only inspired, infallible and authoritative Word of God, the only authoritative and sufficient standard for all matters of godliness, faith, and doctrine. (Psalm 19:7-11; Zechariah 7:12; Matthew 24:35; John 17:17; 2 Timothy 3:16-17; II Peter 1:3-4, 19).
IN GOD THE FATHER, an infinite, personal Spirit perfect in holiness, wisdom, power, and love. God is SOVEREIGN, ETERNAL, OMNISCIENT, OMNIPOTENT,OMNIPRESENT, AND IMMUTABLE.
We believe that He hears our prayers, and that He saves from sin and death all who come to Him through Jesus Christ. ( John 14:6)As Creator He is Father to all men (Ephesians 4:6), but He is spiritual Father only to born again believers (Romans 8:14; 2 Corinthians 6:18).
IN JESUS CHRIST, God's only begotten Son, conceived by the Holy Spirit. We believe in His virgin birth, in His sinless life ( 1Peter 1:19; Hebrews 2:10; 4:15; 5:9; 7:28), and in His miracles and teaching.
We believe in His substitutionary atoning death,(Isaiah 53:4-6; I Pet. 3:18; I Corinthians 15:3) His bodily resurrection, and His ascension into heaven where He sits at the right hand of the Father(Acts 1:9-11; Romans 8:34; Heb. 10:12), having all power, authority and dominion in heaven and earth (Matthew 28:18).
We believe in His personal, visible return to earth, and the establishment of His Kingdom.
He is the one and only Mediator between God and man and lives as an advocate for the saints.
IN THE HOLY SPIRIT, and , who is active in convicting the world of sin and judgment (John 16:8), and who regenerates, sanctifies, and empowers for ministry all who believe in Christ (Ezekiel 36:27; John 3:5-8; 2 Corinthians 12:1-7; Galatians 5:16; Titus 3:5).
We believe the Holy Spirit indwells every believer in Jesus Christ, and that He is an abiding Helper,
Teacher,Guide
We believe man is born sinful, separated from God.
Man's eternal destiny is hell unless he repents of his sin and puts his trust in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Jesus is the only way to heaven (John 14:6) One must be born again to inherit the kingdom of God (John 3:3).
