BELIEFS

GOD

JESUS

THE HOLY SPIRIT

There is one God, who eternally exists in three persons: The Father, The Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal, co-eternal, and distinct from each other, yet one. We believe that God has revealed himself to all his creation - this is called general revelation. (I Corinthians 8:4-7, John, Genesis 1:26, John 1:1-3, I John 5:7, Romans 1:18-20, Matthew 28:19, Luke 1:35, Isaiah 9:6).

Jesus Christ is God the Son, the second person of the Trinity. He was 100% God & Man. He was born of a virgin, lived a life free of sin, he taught God’s Word, discipled men and women, performed miracles, died on a cross for this creation, therefore reconciling mankind back to God through his perfect sacrifice. After 3 days, he became the first to resurrect from the dead as it was prophesied in the Holy Scriptures. He is alive and seated at the right hand of  the Father interceding for his church. He came as a Lamb, a suffering servant, but will return again as a Lion in all power and glory to fully restore the Kingdom he has been establishing through the Church. The entire story of scripture is and has always been about him. (Luke 24:27; John 1:1,14,20:28, Phillipians 2:5-6, I Timothy 2:5).

The Holy Spirit is the third Person of the Holy Trinity who convicts the world of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment; and that He is the Supernatural Agent in regeneration, baptizing all believers into the body of Christ, indwelling and sealing them unto the day of redemption. According to the Scriptures, The Holy Spirit comforts us, teaches us, gives gifts to us, reminds us of everything Jesus has spoken, and leads us into all truth (John 14; 16:8–11; 2 Cor. 3:6; 1 Cor.12:12–14; Romans 8:9; Ephesians. 5:18).

THE BIBLE

The Holy Bible is the authoritative Word of God. It alone is the final authority in determining all doctrinal truths. In its original writing, it is inspired, infallible and inerrant. (II Timothy 3:16; II Peter 1:20-21; Proverbs 30:5; Romans 16:25-26; Hebrews 4:12; Revelation 22:18-19).

MAN

God created Man in His own image and likeness as an upright moral and spiritual being. By voluntary transgression against God’s Word,  Man fell; his only hope of redemption is in Jesus Christ, the Son of God (Gen 1:26-31, 3:1-7; I Corinthians 15:21-28, Romans 5:12-21).

SALVATION

The fall of man caused separation between God and all people, rendering man ultimately hopeless and in danger of eternal damnation. God in His love, not wanting anyone to perish, sent Christ into the world. The sacrificial death of Jesus, and His blood shed on the cross, provides the only way of salvation through the forgiveness of sin. Salvation occurs when people place their faith in the death and resurrection of Christ as sufficient payment for their sin. Salvation is a gift from God, and it cannot be earned through any self-effort. We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ; His death, burial, and resurrection. Salvation is a gift from God, not a result of our good works or of any human efforts (Ephesians 2:8-9; Galatians 2:16, 3:8; Titus 3:5; Romans 10:9-10; Acts 16:31; Hebrews 9:22)

THE CHURCH

The Church is the local and global community of believers who acknowledge Jesus as their Savior. The Church is not a location, religious institution, or weekly event. The Church is the body of Christ, empowered by the Holy Spirit, and made up of born-again believers who carry the divine mission of spreading the Gospel to the whole world. Locally, our church gathers every week corporately on Sundays and in smaller groups during the week to worship, pray, grow through biblical instruction, and to strengthen and support each other.  (Matthew 16:13-18; Acts 2:42-47; Ephesians 1:22, 2:19-22; Hebrews 12:23; John 17:11, 20-23).

THE FUTURE

Jesus Christ will physically and visibly return to earth for the second time to establish His Kingdom. This will occur at a date undisclosed by the Scriptures. After living one life on earth, unbelievers will be judged by God and eternally separated from Him and tormented with the Devil and the Fallen Angels in the lake of fire. Believers will spend eternity with God in a conscious state of bliss thanking Him for all eternity for the victory of overcoming this life; they will enter into eternal blessing (Matthew 25:41; Mark 9:43-48; Hebrews 9:27; Revelation 14:9-11, 20:12-15, 21:1-5; Matthew 24:30, 26:63-64; Acts 1:9-11; I Thessalonians 4:15-17; II Thessalonians 1:7-8; Revelation 1:7).

A unique time of communion in the presence of God when the the breaking of  bread and the cup (the Body and Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ) are taken in remembrance of Jesus' sacrifice on the cross (Matthew 26:26-29; I Corinthians 10:16, 11:23-25).
