OUR STATEMENT OF FAITH
We believe:
-
The Bible, as originally given by God, is divinely inspired, entirely trustworthy, and constitutes the only supreme authority governing all matters of faith and conduct.
-
There is one God, eternally co-existent in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Father is all-powerful, all-knowing, ever-present. He is the Creator of the universe.
-
Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man, yet without sin. As God the Son, He came to earth as man, fulfilled all He was sent to accomplish, died on the cross for the sins of the world, rose from the dead, rules today at the right hand of God the Father, and will return one day in power and glory.
-
The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity, our Counsellor and Comforter, who enables believers to live a life pleasing to God. The Holy Spirit makes Christ present to His church and people.
-
Salvation is possible only through the merits of the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, received by faith apart from works, and is characterized by regeneration by the Holy Spirit.
-
The Church is made up of all people who believe Jesus Christ died on the cross for their sins, bringing new life through His resurrection.
