We Believe

  1. The Scriptures
    The Holy Bible was written by men divinely inspired and is God’s revelation of Himself to man. It is a perfect treasure of divine instruction. It has God for its author, salvation for its end, and truth, without any mixture of error, for its matter. Therefore, all Scripture is totally true and trustworthy.

  2. God
    There is one and only one living and true God. To Him we owe the highest love, reverence, and obedience. The eternal triune God reveals Himself to us as God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, with distinct personal attributes, but without division of nature, essence, or being.
         A. God the Father: God as Father reigns with providential care over His universe, His creatures, and the flow of the stream of human 
             history according to the purposes of His grace. He is all powerful, all knowing, all loving, and all wise. God is father in truth to those 
             who become children of God through faith in Jesus Christ. He is fatherly in His attitude toward all men.
         B. God the Son: Christ is the eternal Son of God. In His incarnation as Jesus Christ He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the
             virgin Mary. Jesus perfectly revealed and did the will of God, taking upon Himself human nature with its demands and necessities 
             and identifying Himself completely with mankind yet without sin. He honored the divine law by His personal obedience, and in His           substitutionary death on the cross He made provision for the redemption of men from sin. He was raised from the dead with a                   glorified body and appeared to His disciples as the person who was with them before His crucifixion. He ascended into heaven and           is now exalted at the right hand of God where He is the One Mediator, fully God, fully man, in whose Person is effected the                           reconciliation between God and man. He will return in power and glory to judge the world and to consummate His redemptive                   mission. He now dwells in all believers as the living and ever present Lord.
        C. God the Holy Spirit: The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God, fully divine. He inspired holy men of old to write the Scriptures. Through              illumination He enables men to understand truth. He exalts Christ. He convicts men of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment. He               calls men to the Saviour, and effects regeneration. At the moment of regeneration He baptizes every believer into the Body of                       Christ. He cultivates Christian character, comforts believers, and bestows the spiritual gifts by which they serve God through His                 church. He seals the believer unto the day of final redemption. His presence in the Christian is the guarantee that God will bring the           believer into the fullness of the stature of Christ. He enlightens and empowers the believer and the church in worship, evangelism,             and service.
  3. Man
    Man is the special creation of God, made in His own image. He created them male and female as the crowning work of His creation. Through the temptation of Satan man transgressed the command of God, and fell from his original innocence whereby his posterity inherit a nature and environment toward sin. Only the grace of God can bring man into His holy fellowship and enable man to fulfill the creative purpose of God.

  4. Salvation
    Salvation involves the redemption of the whole man, and is offered freely to all who accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, who by His own blood obtained eternal redemption for the believer. There is no salvation apart from personal faith in Jesus Christ as Lord.

  5. The Church
    A New Testament church of the Lord Jesus Christ is an autonomous local congregation of baptized believers, associated by covenant in the faith and fellowship of the gospel. The New Testament speaks also of the church as the Body of Christ which includes all of the redeemed of all the ages, believers from every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation.
