THE BIBLE

We believe the Bible is the Word of God, inspired by the Holy Spirit, that it is inerrant in the original manuscripts and preserved by God. It is the rule of faith and practice in this church. (2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1: 19-21)

THE TRINITY

We believe the Godhead exists eternally in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and these three are one. (Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14)

JESUS CHRIST

We believe the Lord Jesus Christ made the perfect atonement for sin by shedding His blood on the cross. His death on the cross redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. (Romans 3:24; Galatians 3:10)

SALVATION

We believe salvation is by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Salvation is entirely apart from good works, baptism, church membership, sacraments, or any effort of man. (Ephesians 2:8,9; Titus 3:5-7)

THE CHURCH

We believe a church is an assembly of baptized believers. It is the mission of the church to proclaim the Gospel and teach the saved. Its ordinances are baptism of believers by immersion and the Lord's Supper. (Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 2:38)

PRESERVATION OF THE SAINTS

We believe a true believer is eternally secure. He cannot lose his salvation but sin may interrupt the joy of his fellowship with God and bring the loving discipline of his heavenly Father. (Hebrews 12:5-13; Romans 5:1-10; 8:30-38)

THE RESURRECTION

We believe, at death, believers depart to be with Christ and at the rapture their bodies will be raised in the likeness of His glory and dwell forever in His divine presence. (Philippians 1:23; 1 Corinthians 15:51-58; 1 Thessalonians 4:13)
