Statement of Faith...

The sole basis of our beliefs is the Bible, God's infallible written Word, the books of the Old and New Testaments. We believe that it was uniquely, verbally and fully inspired by the Holy Spirit and that it was written without error (inerrant) in the original manuscripts. It is the supreme and final authority in all matters on which it speaks.
Believe in one God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Matthew 5:16, 45; 6:1, 4, 8, 9; 14:9 / Genesis 1:2; John 4:24; 14:16-20)

Believe in God the Father Almighty, Creator of all things visible and invisible. (Genesis 1:1; Acts 17:24-28

Believe in Jesus Christ, God's one and only Son (John 1:14; 1 John 4:9 / John 3:16)

Who was born Jesus of Nazareth, both fully human and fully divine, conceived of the Holy Spirit and the virgin Mary,(Matthew 21:11; John 19:19 / John 1:14; 1 John 1:1 / Matthew 1:18; Luke 1:26-38)

Suffered and was crucified under Pontius Pilate, (Luke 23:1-46)

Died and was buried, and rose again from the dead on the third day, (Luke 23:44 - 24:8; John 20:24-29)

Jesus ascended into Heaven and now sits at the right hand of the Father, (Luke 22:69; Acts 1:1-9; Colossians 3:1) and will return to earth to judge both the living and the dead. (Matthew 24:36-42; John 14:1-3; Acts 1:10-11; 10:39-42)

Believe in the Holy Spirit (John 16:5-15; Acts 1:7-8; Romans 8:26-27)

Believe the Bible teaches that man, created by God, sinned against God and is lost and without hope apart from Jesus Christ. (Acts 4:12; Romans 3:23)

Believe the Bible teaches that salvation and the forgiveness of sins is achieved only by grace through the blood of Jesus Christ. (Matthew 26:28; Romans 5:9; Ephesians 2:8-9; 1 John 1:7)
