Statement of FaithPerson of Jesus, We Believe: - In one God existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
- That Jesus Christ is the divine, eternal and only begotten Son of God.
- Jesus physically rose from the dead and has ascended to the right hand of the Father.
- Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin, and lived a sinless life.
The Holy Spirit. We believe:- He was sent forth from the Father to convict the world of sin, of righteousness and of judgment.
- He has come and indwells, regenerates, sanctifies, instructs and comforts the saints.
Salvation. We believe: - Jesus lived a sinless life and in death, as a spotless lamb, atoned for the sins of the world.
- Our salvation comes by grace through faith in God, not by doing good works.
- The Lord commissioned the church to proclaim to a lost and sinful world that:
- He, Jesus Christ, is the Son of God Who suffered and rose again from the dead on the third day.
- Forgiveness of sins is available to all who put their faith in Him.
The Bible, We believe: - The Bible is God's Word. In its original tongue it is without error,
and therefore is our final authority in all matters of faith and conduct.
Church unity, We believe: - The above doctrines are essential. While we may have opinions on many other doctrines,
Christians do not please God when they cause division in the church over non-essential
doctrine or denominational differences.
