About the Bible
We believe the entire Bible is the inspired Word of God and that men were moved by the Spirit of God to write the very words of Scripture. Therefore, we believe the Bible is without error. We believe that the Bible is the perfect guidebook for life. 2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:19-21

About God
We believe in one God who exists in three distinct persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. God has existed forever and created the universe and everything in it. Genesis 1:1; Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19-20

About Jesus
We believe that Jesus is fully God showing Himself to us. Jesus became fully human when his mother Mary, a virgin, gave birth to Him, to reveal God to man and to become the Savior of the world. John 1:1-2, 12, 14

About the Holy Spirit
We believe that the Holy Spirit is God. He lives in believers, marking them as God’s possession, empowering them to live out godly characteristics in their lives, and equipping them to serve God. John 14:16-17; Ephesians 4:30; Galatians 5:22-23; 1 Corinthians 12:4.

About Mankind
We believe that mankind was created in the image of God to have a relationship with Him, but became alienated in that relationship through sinful disobedience when tempted by Satan. As a result, man is incapable of regaining a right relationship with God through his own effort. Genesis 1:27; Romans 5:12; Titus 3:5

About Salvation
We believe that the blood of Jesus Christ, shed on the cross, provides the sole basis for the forgiveness of sin. Therefore, salvation occurs only when people repent of their sins and place their faith in the death and resurrection of Christ as sufficient payment for their sins. Once people place their faith in Christ, they are adopted into God’s family and are assured of eternal life. Ephesians 1:7; Ephesians 2:8-9; John 3:16; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4

About the Christian Life
We believe that every Christian should live for Christ and not for himself. Baptism by immersion is an essential step of obedience for believers, and every Christian should regularly participate in communion. By obedience to the Bible and daily yielding to the Spirit of God, every believer should mature and become more like Jesus Christ. Matthew 28:19-20; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26; Romans 8:5

About the Church
We believe that Jesus Christ established the church as His primary method of building His Kingdom until His return. The purpose of the church is to glorify God by loving Him, serving Him, and by making Him known to the world. Matthew 16:18; Acts 1:8

About the Future
We believe that heaven and hell are real places. When people die, their decision to trust Christ in this life will determine their eternal destiny. Jesus will literally return one day to earth, bringing an end to history as we know it, and ushering in eternity for all people. Hebrews 9:27; Acts 1:11
