We Believe
The Bible to be the Word of God verbally inspired and wholly without error in all that it declares and therefore is the supreme and final authority for faith and life.

We Believe
In the one true triune God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

We Believe
In the virgin birth and the deity of Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, who is also the Son of Man.

We Believe
That the death of Jesus Christ on the cross made atonement for the sins of the world, effective for all who repent and believe.

We Believe
In the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ, which ensures the resurrection of all believers who have received God’s gift of eternal life.

We Believe
That Jesus Christ will physically and visibly return to earth for the second time to establish His Kingdom.

We Believe
That man was originally created in the image of God, that he fell into sin through the first Adam, and that he is responsible for all sin that causes him to be separated from God and lost eternally.

We Believe
That the Holy Spirit indwells all who receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.

We Believe
That all Christians are called to good works and are in the world, but are separate from it.

We Believe
That Christians are called to witness for Christ and to preach the Gospel to all nations.

We believe that all human life is sacred and created by God in His image. Human life is of inestimable worth in all its dimensions, including babies in the womb, the aged, the physically or mentally challenged, and every other stage or condition from conception through natural death. We are therefore called to defend, protect, and value all human life (Psalm 139).
