Our CoreBeliefs

We are firmly rooted in the historic Christian faith and the saving work of Jesus Christ. Our beliefs guide us to love God, serve others, and share the hope of the Gospel with the world.

One God

We believe in one God, eternally existing as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, the creator of all things.

Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19

The Lord Jesus Christ

We believe Jesus Christ is both fully God and fully man, conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, to redeem sinful humanity and reveal God the Father.

Philippians 2:7; Luke 1:35

The Holy Scriptures

We believe the Bible, both Old and New Testaments, is the inspired, complete revelation of God's salvation for humanity, and the final authority for Christian faith and practice.

2 Timothy 3:16-17

Salvation by Grace Through Faith

We believe salvation is a gift of God's grace, received through faith in Jesus Christ alone, not by human works.

Ephesians 2:8-9

Christ's Death & Resurrection

We believe in the literal suffering, sacrificial death, and bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ on the third day, for the redemption of all people.

Isaiah 53:5; 1 Corinthians 15:3

Christ's Ascension & Return

We believe Jesus ascended to the Father, is our mediator, and will return in glory to establish His eternal Kingdom.

Acts 1:9-11; 1 Thessalonians 4:16

The Resurrection of All

We believe in the bodily resurrection of all: the saved to eternal life and the unsaved to face judgment.

John 5:28-29; Daniel 12:2

The Final Judgment

We believe God will judge all people with perfect justice, rewarding the saved with eternal life and condemning the unrepentant to everlasting separation.

Hebrews 9:27; Revelation 20:11-15

The Holy Spirit

We believe in the Holy Spirit, who convicts the world of sin, indwells believers, and guides them into all truth through the power of prayer and the Word.

John 16:8-13; Romans 8:14

The Church

We believe the Church is the body of Christ, united by the Spirit, called to worship, fellowship, and make disciples of all nations.

Ephesians 4:4-6; Matthew 28:19-20

Sanctification

We believe the Holy Spirit works to transform believers, setting them apart to live holy lives and reflect Christ's character.

1 Thessalonians 4:3; Romans 6:22

The Christian Mission

We believe every believer is sent to share the Gospel, to make disciples, and to be a witness of Christ's love to the world.

Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 1:8
