Statement of Faith

   

The Bible, consisting of the 66 books of the Old and New Testaments, is the inspired Word of God, inerrant in the original documents, and the only final authority in all matters of faith and practice.
1 Thessalonians 2:13; 2 Timothy 3:15-17

There is one God, the Creator of all things, perfectly holy and eternally existent in three persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Trinity).
Genesis 1:1; Isaiah 45:5-6; Matthew 28:19

The Lord Jesus Christ is fully God and fully Man, was the agent of creation, conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, lived a sinless and perfect life and performed many miracles. 
John 1:3, 10:30-33, 14:9; Colossians 1:16-17, 19, 2:9; Matthew 1:20-23; Hebrews 4:15; Matthew 9:35; John 9:1-21; Luke 8:52-56; John 11:1-44

His sacrificial death on the cross was voluntary, substitutionary and sufficient for atonement. He rose bodily from the dead, appeared to more than 500 people and ascended to his Father’s right hand, where he now ministers as our Great High Priest until He returns with power and glory.
John 1:29, 10:18; Hebrews 12:2; Colossians 1:20; 1 Corinthians 15:1-8; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Hebrews 3:1; 4:14-15; Acts 1:9-11; Luke 21:27

The Holy Spirit possesses all the attributes of personality and deity including intellect, emotions, and will. The Holy Spirit indwells, sanctifies, regenerates, instructs, empowers, and seals believers until the day of redemption.
Genesis 1:2; 2 Corinthians 13:14; 1 Corinthians 2:10-13; Ephesians 4:30; 1 Corinthians 12:11; Romans 8:9-11; 1 Corinthians 2:4, 6:11; Ephesians 1:13

Redemption is wholly by the blood of Christ, and salvation is received by grace alone through faith alone in our Lord Jesus Christ alone. Genuine faith in Jesus empowers believers to live an abundant and obedient life with God.
Romans 3:23-24; John 3:1-21; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Colossians 1:20; Ephesians 2:8-10; John 10:10, 14:6; Romans 1:5, 16:25-26

When Christ returns, all His followers will see His face and be with Him forever, reigning with Him in splendor and great glory, throughout all eternity.
1 Thessalonians 4:13-17; Titus 2:13; Matthew 24:27; John 14:3; Revelation 21:1-5
