Statement of Faith
We Believe:
1. That the Holy Scriptures, as given by God, are divinely inspired, infallible (entirely trustworthy, and the supreme authority in all matters of faith and practice.
2. In one God, eternally existent in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Jesus is Lord and neither is there salvation in any other. (Acts 4:12)
3. In our Lord Jesus Christ, God manifest in the flesh, his virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, and His atoning death.
4. In the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, in His personal return, and the judgment of the world by Him.
5. That "all have sinned," and are justly exposed to the wrath of God.
6. That redemption from the guilt, penalty, and power of sin is possible only through the death, shed blood and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
7. In the necessity of the work of the Holy Spirit to make the death of Christ effective to the individual sinner, granting him repentance towards God, and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, enabling the believer to live a holy life, and to witness and work for Him.
8. In the resurrection of the body, the eternal blessedness of the righteous and the eternal punishment of the wicked.
9. That every believer is baptized into the body of Christ by the Holy Spirit, and thus being members of one another, is responsible for keeping the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace, loving one another with a pure heart fervently.
