Statement of Beliefs

We Believe:

In one God, the Father, the Creator of the heavens and earth, who has revealed his will to mankind through his written word in the holy Scriptures, the Bible. 

In Jesus Christ, God's unique Son and our Lord, who as God's word in human form, fully made known God his Father and accomplished redemption and salvation for mankind.

That Jesus Christ was a man, miraculously conceived by God's holy Spirit, and that, anointed by the power of God's Spirit, he fulfilled his ministry as the Messiah, or Christ, of God, proclaiming and demonstrating the love and power of God and God's kingdom.

That, according to God's plan of salvation, Jesus Christ was crucified under Roman authority and died for our sins according to the Scriptures.  That he was buried.  That on the third day God raised Jesus out from among those that are dead, exalting him to the highest place of authority, God's own right hand, where Jesus now rules as Lord and Christ over God's kingdom.

That Jesus Christ will return on a day in the future already appointed by God in order to judge the living and the dead, destroy all evil and establish God's glorious everlasting kingdom in a new heaven and new earth.

That those who have faith in Jesus Christ receive God's gift of salvation, forgiveness of sins, God's gift of holy Spirit, adoption into God's family as his children, incorporation into the body of Christ and the wonderful assurance of life in God's everlasting kingdom after Christ's return.

As God's people, all believers have the joy, privilege and responsibility of serving our Lord Jesus Christ and sharing with the world the good news of God's gift of salvation through faith in Christ.
