The
Scriptures
We believe that the Bible is God's infallible Word,
that it was written by men divinely inspired, that it was
thus inerrant in the original writings, and that it has
supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct.
The
Truine God
We believe there is only one living and true God
existing eternally in three persons - The Father, The
Son, and The Holy Spirit - one in substance and equal in
every divine attribute.
God
The Father
We believe in God the Father, perfect in holiness,
infinite in wisdom, measureless in power. We rejoice that
He concerns Himself mercifully in the affairs of men,
that He hears and answers prayer, and that He saves from
the penalty of sin and death all who come to Him through
Jesus Christ.
God
The Son
We believe in Jesus Christ, God's only begotten Son,
virgin born, sinless in His life, making atonement for
the sins of the world by his substitutionary death. We
believe in His bodily resurrection, His ascension into
heaven, His perpetual intercession for His personal,
visible return in power and glory.
God
The Holy Spirit
We believe in the Holy Spirit who came forth from God
to convict the world of sin, of righteousness, and of
judgment. We believe He regenerates, indwells,
sanctifies, empowers, and comforts those who believe in
Jesus Christ.
Man
and Sin
We believe man was created by God in a state of
innocence, but that through the fall of Adam, the race
has come to be entirely in sin so that all men are
sinners by nature and deed, subject to death and wrath,
and needful of the grace of God for salvation.
Salvation
We believe salvation is provided by God's grace based
on the substitionary death of Christ on the cross, and
received through faith in the Lord Jesus apart from works
or human merit. Those who receive Christ are born again
as children of God, and will rejoice forever in God's
presence. Those who do not trust in Christ as Saviour
remain condemned and separated from God.
The
Christian Life
We believe those who trust Christ are called to a
life of increasing holiness, obedience, and good works by
the power of the Holy Spirit. We believe it to be the
Christian's mission to serve others in compassion, to
proclaim Christ by life and word, and to impact society
with moral values. We believe Christians ought associate
with other believers in churches of Biblical faith and
practice.
Future
Things
We believe Christ will receive His church unto
Himself and return to earth to reign. We believe in the
resurrection of the saved into eternal bliss and the
resurrection of the lost into eternal torment. We believe
in creation of a new heaven and earth where God will
dwell with His own forever.
