Our Beliefs

---

The  Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the inspired Word of God  (2 Timothy 3:16) presenting to us the complete revelation of His will  for the salvation of men, and constituting the Divine and only rule of  Christian faith and practice (2 Peter 1:21). ​

We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ as the only begotten Son of God. We believe in His substitutionary death for all men, His resurrection, and His eventual return to judge the world.

We believe all are born with a sinful nature and that the work of Christ’s atonement at the Cross was to redeem us from the power of sin.  We believe that salvation is God’s gift to us. It is available to anyone who confesses the Lord Jesus with their mouth and believes that God has raised Him from death to life.  John 5:24; Romans 10:9-10; Ephesians 2:8-9

Baptism in water is by immersion, a direct commandment of our Lord (Matthew  28:19), and is for believers only. The ordinance is a symbol of the  Christian’s identification with Christ in His death, burial and  resurrection (Romans 6:4; Colossians 2:12; Acts 8:36-39).

We believe in the Holy Spirit and His interaction with man as a helper, guide and comforter (John 14:16). We believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit as manifested by the fruit and the gifts of the Spirit.

We believe that everyone is the steward of their life and resources, all of which ultimately belong to God, the ultimate Provider. We believe that tithing is a Biblical mandate and the measure of obedience to the scriptural principles of stewardship.
