Statement of Faith

God is the Creator of the universe, and eternally exists in three coequal Persons: Father, Son (Jesus) and Holy Spirit.

Jesus, both fully God and man, sacrificed Himself for the sins of all people by dying on a cross and rising from the dead. He will return one day.

The Holy Spirit makes people aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He lives in every believer from the moment of salvation. He gives every believer spiritual gifts and guides them in right living.

The Bible is God’s authoritative Word to mankind, written by human authors under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is inspired by God and without error.

Humanity was made in the image of God but fell into sin, separating mankind from God. Only by trusting in God’s offer of forgiveness through Jesus Christ can a person be rescued from sin and eternal separation from God. Eternal life with God begins when one receives Jesus Christ by faith.

The local church is a group of believers committed to living in Biblical community with each other to fulfill Jesus’ command to make disciples. Key practices of the local church include believer’s baptism and the Lord’s Supper. All believers are members of the universal Church.
