What we believe.

---

We believe in one God who is the creator of heaven and earth. He is eternal, unchanging, all wise, just, and holy. He exists as a triune God, one entity in three persons; Father, Son and Holy Spirit. 

We believe Jesus Christ is the eternal word manifested in the flesh. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary.

We believe that Christ was crucified, died on the cross, rose again and is the substitutionary sacrifice for every human being’s sin. Salvation is an undeserved gift, offered through grace, only attainable through Christ’s blood. We can do nothing through our own works to attain it. Only through Christ can we access the Father. 

We believe Christ will one day return for his church followed by His 1,000 year reign on earth. 

We believe the universal Body (Church) of Jesus Christ is composed of those who have been redeemed and washed in His blood, regenerated and sealed by the Holy Spirit, and are saved to worship and serve by loving the Lord with all our heart, soul mind and strength and our neighbor as ourselves.

We believe the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testament Scripture alone to be verbally inspired by God and inerrant in the original text, and that they alone are of supreme and final authority in faith and life.

We believe Jesus Christ instituted only two ordinances. They are water baptism and Communion, to be observed until He comes. We believe that water baptism is not necessary for salvation but that it is an outward symbol of salvation and a sign of obedience to Him.
