Statement of Faith

Statement of Faith

We believe in:

The GODHEAD:

Eternally exists in three persons as one GOD – the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; each having the same nature and attributes and worthy of all honor and praise.

The BIBLE:

“….all Scripture is given by inspiration of God”…and is, therefore, without error.

JESUS CHRIST:

His humanity and deity, virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, bodily resurrection, ascension to the right hand of the Father, present rule as Head of the Church, Great High Priest and Intercessor for the believer, and in His personal return in power and glory.

The HOLY SPIRIT:

For regeneration of lost and sinful men; and, His  ministry of indwelling power in the believer to live a godly life.

ETERNAL SECURITY:

The assurance of the believer’s relationship is secure in  God, Who has undertaken to save and keep them forever, apart from all human merit.

The UNITY OF BELIEVERS:

Having become members of the Body of Christ, we are under the solemn duty to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace, living with equality across racial, gender, and class differences.

The RESURRECTION:

Both the living and the dead will exist in an eternal state. The dead in Christ, saved to the resurrection of life united forever with Him in glory;  the lost, saved unto the resurrection of  death,  punishment with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and the glory of His power.
