BELIEFS

God exists eternally in three Persons:  God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:26; Matthew 28:19; John 14:9; Acts 5:4,9; 2 Corinthians 13:14).

​

Jesus, eternal Son of God, was born of a virgin and is both fully God and fully human (Matthew 1:20; Luke 2:52; John 1:1-4, 14; Colossians 1:15-20; Hebrews 1:1-3), died on the cross as our substitute (Romans 5:8; 1 Peter 3:18; Galatians 3:13; 2 Corinthians 5:21), rose from the dead in a bodily resurrection defeating sin and death (1 Corinthians 15:3-6; Romans 6:4-9), and will come again to judge the living and the dead (Matthew 24-25; Acts 1:9-11; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Revelation 19-21).

​

Holy Spirit convicts, regenerates, indwells, empowers, instructs, and guides the believer in living, service, and worship through His gifts (John 1:12; Romans 8:14-17; Galatians 3:26, 4:4-7; Ephesians 1:13-14; Titus 3:4-7).

​

Scripture is true, authoritative and sufficient for faith and practice in all matters to which it speaks. (Psalm 19:7-11; 2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20-21)

​

Man was created in the image of God, His pinnacle creation (Genesis 1:26-27); he fell through sin and lost his spiritual life; (Genesis 3:19); because of this great fall, man is now born into sin, spiritually dead. (Psalm 51:5; Jeremiah 17:9; Romans 3:23; 5:8, 12-21; 7:18; Ephesians 2:1-3; Hebrews 4:15).

​

Salvation is a free gift of God given when a person places their faith in the work of Jesus Christ that brings eternal spiritual life to man; this saving belief removes man's otherwise eternal separation from God (Ephesians 2:8-9; John 1:12; 3:16; 5:24; Revelation 21:27).

​

God's requirements for representing His kingdom: doing justice, practicing lovingkindness, and walking humbly with Him (Micah 6:8).
