We Believe there is one, true God who is the creator of the heavens and the earth. God is eternally existent in three personalities: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

We Believe Jesus Christ is the head of His body (Ephesians 1:22-23) and that authority for life and doctrine rests in Him (Hebrews 1:1-14). We Believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, atoning death on the cross, bodily resurrection, bodily ascension into heaven, and His personal return once again in power and glory.

We Believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life. The Holy Spirit also empowers believers for service and seals them unto the day of redemption. We Believe that all who by faith are baptized into Jesus Christ are immediately placed by the Holy Spirit into one united spiritual Body of which Christ is the head. The purpose of Christ’s spiritual body is to glorify God by building its members up in the faith, by instruction of the word, by fellowship, and by advancing and communicating the good news of the Kingdom of God to the entire world.

We Believe the Bible to be the only inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God. We accept the Old Testament writings as the history of God’s dealings with His people, preparing the world for His presence in the person of His Son, Jesus. We also accept the New Testament, in conjunction with revelations recorded in the Old Testament, as the sole authoritative source of information concerning the will of God manifested in the person, life and teaching of Jesus Christ.

We Believe that salvation cannot be gained by human effort, but only through God’s grace in the redemption He provided in Jesus Christ, a redemption which is responded to by faith and which leads to a life devoted to obeying God. We Believe in the practices authorized for the Church family in the New Testament, namely Baptism (immersion in water) and the Lord’s Supper. Immersion, as commanded and exemplified in the New Testament, is a burial in water with Christ and resurrection to a new life with Him in the Spirit (Romans 6:3-4).

We Believe that we should cooperate in all possible ways in God’s work with our fellow believers, being patient with one another in our differences.
