Our Statement of Faith

We believe the Bible is the inspired, inerrant, Word of God and is the infallible guide for salvation and the Christian life. (2 Timothy 3:16,17)

We believe in one God, the Creator of all, eternally existing in three persons; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit - each co-equal. (Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14; Ephesians 1:10; 3:2-10)

We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, became man, without ceasing to be God, having been conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary, in order that He might reveal God and redeem sinful men. (Isaiah 7:14; 9:6; Luke 1:35; Phillipians 2:5-8)

We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ finished the work of our redemption through His death on the cross as the vicarious, substitutionary sacrifice, and that our justification is made secure and sure by His literal, physical resurrection from the dead. (Acts 2:18-36; Romans 3:24-25; 1 Peter 2:24)

We believe in the total depravity of the nature of man through his fall in the Garden of Eden, and the absolute inability of man to save himself by his own works. (Romans 3:22-23; 5:12; 6:23; Ephesians 1:7; 2:8-9; 1 Peter 1:18-19)

We believe that Satan is a fallen angel, who rebelled against God, caused the Fall of Man, and, that he will be eternally punished in the Lake of Fire. (Isaiah 14:12-17; Matthew 25:41; Revelation 20:10)

We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust, the everlasting blessedness of the saved. That the souls of the redeemed are, at death, absent from the body and present with the Lord, and that the spirit, soul, and body are reunited and glorified at the first resurrection when the Lord Jesus Christ appears. (1 Corinthians 15:50-57; Phillipians 1:23; 3:21; 1 Thessalonians 4:14-17); and the everlasting punishment of the lost, who will be resurrected at the second resurrection and appear at the Great White Throne Judgment, be cast into the Lake of Fire and suffer everlasting torment. (Luke 16:19-26; Revelation 20:11-15)

We believe in the immediate and eternal salvation of every person who truly believes on Christ and by faith rests on His finished work as the only righteous ground on which a Holy God can forgive sins. (2 Corinthians 5:21)

We believe that all who by faith receive the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior are born again, indwelt, and baptized into the Body of Christ, the Church, by the Holy Spirit. (1 Corinthians 12:13)

We believe in the personal, imminent, and premillennial coming of the Lord to rapture His Church prior to the seven year tribulation period. (Titus 2:13; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17)

We believe in the revelation of Christ in glory when, after the seven year tribulation period, at His Second Advent to the earth, He comes to establish His Kingdom on earth and to reign in righteousness. (2 Thessalonians 1:6-10)

This statement does not exhaust the extent of our faith. The Bible itself is the sole and final source of all that we believe. We do believe that the above Statement of Faith accurately describes what the Bible teaches, what we believe, what will be taught, and how we seek to live.
