What we believe.

Statement of Belief #1
We believe in one God-the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Statement of Belief #2
We believe that the Old and New Testament Scriptures, given by complete inspiration, contain all the truth needed to grow in faith and Christian living.
Statement of Belief #3
We believe that man is born with a fallen nature, and is, therefore, inclined to evil.
Statement of Belief #4
We believe that those who are unrepentant are hopelessly and eternally lost.
Statement of Belief #5
We believe that the atonement through Jesus Christ is for the whole human race; and that whoever repents and believes on the Lord Jesus Christ is made right in relationship with God and is spiritually reborn and is saved from the control of sin.
Statement of Belief #6
We believe that believers are to be set apart and made holy (sanctified wholly), following spiritual rebirth, through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Statement of Belief #7
We believe that the Holy Spirit bears witness to the new birth, and also to the entire sanctification of believers.
Statement of Belief #8
We believe that our Lord will return, the dead will be raised, and the final judgment will take place.
