Statement of faith
We believe that:
-
God is the one and only true God who created all things and exists for all eternity in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Lev 19:2, 2 Cor 13:14).
-
The Bible is the inspired, infallible, complete, and final word of God (2 Tim 3:16-17, 2 Pet 1:21).
-
People are in violation of God’s righteous requirements and his holy character (Ps 14:2-3, Rom 3:23, 1 John 1:8).
-
Jesus Christ, born of a Virgin, came to pay the penalty for man’s sin through his substitutionary death on the cross, and his bodily resurrection ensures the resurrection of all believers (John 1:29, 3:17, 14:6, 2 Cor 5:21, Matt 1:18).
-
Salvation is offered as a free gift to sinners that is sealed by God with His Spirit (Rom 3:24-25a, Acts 13:38-39, John 3:5-6, Rom 8:9, Eph 1:14).
-
Response to Salvation is by individual faith, believing in God’s Word and not trusting in any personal works whatsoever, but trusting only in the atoning death of Jesus Christ alone (Heb 11:6, Acts 2:38, John 3:16,18, 1 Cor 1:21, 15:1-2).
