Reaching People for Christ...and Helping Believers Grow to be Like Him

  • We believe in the Bible—God’s Holy Word, Scripture.
    • We believe God inspired the original writings of the Scripture and those original writings were consequently without error.  II Timothy 3:14-16; II Peter 1:20-21
    • We believe that the Bible is the final authority for all matters of faith, truth, morality, and Christian living.  Psalm 119:11, 105; Romans 15:4
  • We believe in one God—Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
    • We believe in God the Father Almighty, Creator of all things visible and invisible. Genesis 1:1; Acts 17:24-28; Hebrews 11:3; James 1:17
    • We believe in Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the eternal Word, the one and only Savior.  John 1:1, 14; 3:16; Philippians 2:6-11; Colossians 1:15-19; I John 4:9
      • Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary, both fully human and fully divine; Who lived a sinless life; Who suffered and was crucified as an atonement for sin; Who rose again bodily from the dead on the third day; Who ascended into Heaven; and Who will return in victory. Luke 1:26-35; Colossians 2:9; Romans 5:15-17; John 20:24-29; I Corinthians 15:3-8; Acts 1:1-9; Revelation 1:7-8
    • We believe in the Holy Spirit: Who convicts of sin; Who indwells every Christian; Who helps us in our weakness and intercedes for us in prayer; and Who empowers us to a fruitful Christian life. John 16:8; I Corinthians 3:16; 6:19; II timothy 1:14; Romans 8:26; Galatians 5:22-23
  • We believe in the Gospel—the Good News of Salvation.
    • That man, created by God, willfully sinned against God and is consequently lost and without hope apart from Jesus Christ.  Isaiah 53:6; Acts 4:12; Romans 3:23
    • That salvation—the forgiveness of sins—is only by grace through the blood of Jesus Christ.  Romans 5:9; Ephesians 2:8-9; I Peter 1:18-19; I John 1:7
    • That one indicates their acceptance of salvation by putting faith in Christ, repenting of sin, and confessing Christ, being baptized into Christ, and remaining faithful to Christ. Romans 5:1-2; 10:9; Galatians 3:27; Colossians 2:12; I Peter 3:21
    • That those who have received salvation through faith in Jesus Christ are sent into the world to share the gospel and to love and serve the world just as Jesus Himself did.  II Corinthians 5:11-12; Ephesians 2:10, Matthew 28:18-20; John 20:21
  • We believe in the Church of Jesus Christ, founded on the Day of Pentecost, consisting of all Christians everywhere, and organized into local congregations, called churches.  Matthew 16:13-18; Acts 2:14-47
    • We believe the Bible teaches that every Christian should be an active participant in a local church.  Hebrews 10:24-25
    • We believe that the Elders of the church are the overseers of its affairs and the shepherds of its members; and that they are responsible for the oversight, instruction, edification, discipline, and restoration of church members. I Peter 5:1-4; Titus 1:9; 2:1-15; Matthew 18:15-17; Galatians 6:1; I Corinthians 5:11-13
