Our Beliefs

Holy Spirit

​The Holy Spirit is the third Person of the Godhead who regenerates, indwells, baptizes, and seals all believers in Christ (Acts 5:3-4; Matt. 28:19; John 3:3-7; Rom. 8:9; 1 Cor. 2:12; 6:19; 12:13; Eph. 1:13; 4:30; 5:18).

Bible

​Every word in the original writings of the Holy Scriptures of both the Old and New Testaments is inspired of God, without error, and of supreme authority in all matters of faith and life (2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21).

God

​The Godhead exists eternally in three Persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one God (Deut. 6:4; Psalm 90:2; Matt. 28:19; John 1:1-3; 8:58; 10:30; Acts 5:3-4; 2 Cor. 13:14).

Jesus Christ

​The eternal Son of God became incarnate in the Lord Jesus Christ, being born of the virgin Mary, and is true God and true man (John 1:1, 14, 18; 5:18; Phil. 2:6-11; Col. 1:19; 2:9; 1 Tim. 2:5; Heb. 1:1-9; 1 John 5:20).

Man

​Man was created in the image and likeness of God, but in Adam all mankind fell into sin with the result that all men are sinners, are hopelessly sinful in themselves, and are apart from the grace of God (Gen. 1:27; 9:6; Rom. 3:23; 5:12; 8:6-7; Eph. 2:1-3).

Assurance

​All who are born of the Spirit through faith in Christ can have assurance of salvation and are eternally secured in Christ (John 10:27-29; Rom. 8:1; Eph. 1:13-14; John 5:24; 2 Tim. 1:12; 1 John 5:11-13).

Sanctification

​Every believer has positional sanctification and is promised progressive and ultimate sanctification (John 17:17; 1 Cor. 6:11; 2 Cor. 3:18; Eph. 5:26-27; Phil. 3:20-21; 1 Thess. 4:3-4; 5:23-24; Heb. 10:10, 14; 1 John 3:2).

Salvation

​Salvation is received by faith alone in Christ, Who died as a substitutionary sacrifice for our sins according to the Scriptures and rose again. All who believe on Him are justified on the basis of His shed blood and receive the gift of eternal life. This is the message of the gospel (Acts 4:12; 16:31; 1 Cor. 15:1-4; Eph. 2:8-9; John 1:12; John 3:16; Romans 5:1).
