Statement of Faith

We Believe…

…in one God, revealed in three Persons; Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

…that the Bible is God’s inspired Word; it is our guide, and the supreme revelation of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord.

…that Jesus Christ is both God and Man, conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, led a sin-less life, took all our sins upon Himself, died and rose again. Today, He is seated at the right hand of the Father as our High Priest and Mediator.

… that sin has darkened the minds of all people so that they cannot see God, but that Christ came in order that people’s inward eyes would be opened to see who God is and what God has done through Jesus Christ.

…that salvation is a gift freely given to all, who repent (change one’s mind) from self-effort works that do not produce righteousness and come to God, by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. Salvation is a new life in Christ and this life produces works pleasing to God.

…that water baptism is a declaration of the cleansing power of God and a testimony of our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

…that the Holy Spirit is our Comforter, who brings to our remembrance who Christ is and what Christ has done. He also blesses us with spiritual gifts and empowers us to yield the fruit of the Spirit.

…that the Holy Communion is a celebration of Jesus’ death, and our remembrance of Him.

…that Christ’s death, resurrection and exaltation to the right hand of the Father constitutes finished work of Christ, whereby all believers receive abundant and eternal life.

…that believers are called to preach the gospel of Christ, the word of reconciliation, to all nations, and that this is the supreme task of the church.

…in the return of our Lord Jesus Christ, the resurrection of the dead and the final judgment by Jesus Christ according to the gospel.
