What We Believe:

  • We Believe...
    • God is three persons in one: the Father, Who created and sustains the world; the Son, Who lived as a human being, died, and rose from the dead; and the Holy Spirit Who works God's will in the world.
      Matthew 28:18-21
    • The Bible is the infallible word of God, spoken through human writers. It is the sole authority, guide and standard for all that we do. 2 Peter 1:20-21; 2 Timothy 3:16-17
    • Sin exists in every person. It is the cause of the bad things people do to each other. Romans 5:12, 18-19
    • Everyone will have existence after death - either in heaven or hell - forever and without end.
    • God has a plan to end the world, when He will judge everyone - both the living and the dead. Matthew 25:31-46
    • We believe in the sign of the cross; it as a symbol used by all Christians. The cross symbolizes the terrible death that Jesus suffered as punishment for our sins. The empty cross is a symbol of Jesus' victory over sin and death. Colossians 2:13-15
  • We Believe In...
    • Grace alone - God loved the world, though we do not deserve His love. He sent His Son to love the unlovely and save the ungodly. Ephesians 2:8-10
    • Faith alone - Jesus has provided for our forgiveness and life; those who hear this promise and believe it, have what it offers. People don't "get" faith; God gives it as He gives us His promises. Romans 1:16-17
    • Scripture alone - The Bible is the only source that shows God's will and the only basis for faith. 2 Timothy 3:16-17
  • We Believe That...
    • Baptism and Communion are a means by which God gives people His grace.
      Acts 2:38-39; Matthew 26:26-28
    • God is loving and that He offers forgiveness and eternal life as a free gift because of Jesus Christ. Salvation Is a free gift - We believe that no matter how hard we try, we cannot earn God's forgiveness or a place in heaven. It is a free gift we receive only through faith in Jesus Christ. Galatians 2:15-21
