One True God

There is one God eternally co-existent in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Trinity is the biblical and historic position of the Christian Church throughout the ages.

The Father

The Father is an infinite, eternal, and personal spirit. He, the Son, and Holy Spirit created the universe. He loves all humanity and sent His one and only Son to save us.

Jesus Christ

Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of a virgin in the incarnation, lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sins, was physically raised from the dead on the third day, and ascended to heaven. We look forward to His promised physical and visible return.

The Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity and He is fully God. The Holy Spirit convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment. He indwells all believers in Jesus Christ and empowers them to live a victorious Christian life. The Holy Spirit is present in the church today through the biblical and orderly exercise of spiritual gifts.

The Word of God

Scripture consists of the Old and New Testaments of the Bible. They are fully inspired and the infallible source of faith and practice.

People

God loves all people. We are all imperfect and are sinners by nature and by choice. Our sin separates us from God and merits eternal punishment.

Salvation

Salvation is freely offered to all people. Salvation is a free gift from God to be received by faith, not attained by works. When a person chooses to trust Jesus Christ for salvation, that person is immediately born again and sealed by the Holy Spirit. All of his/her sins are forgiven and that person becomes an adopted child of God who will spend eternity with God in heaven.

The Church

The Universal Church is made up of all believers. The local church is the gathering together of believers for worship through the teaching of God's word, fellowship, communion and prayer.

Ordinances

The New Testament institutes two ordinances for the church. Believers are to be baptized with water as an outward sign of their inward commitment to Jesus. Believers are to gather regularly to share the Lord's Supper which is a symbol and reminder of Christ's death for us.
