OUR BELIEFS

Our purpose is to invest in things that are eternal as we forever seek to love and glorify God.

Matthew 22:37-39 / 28:19-20 | I Corinthians 10:31

WHAT WE BELIEVE

God

There is one God, manifested in three persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. (Genesis 1:26; Matthew 28:19-20; 2 Corinthians 13:14)

Jesus

Jesus is the only begotten Son of God, was born of a virgin, is wholly God and wholly man, lived a sinless life, died a substitutionary sacrifice for the sins of mankind, was buried, arose from the grave and ascended into Heaven. (John 1:14, 3:16; Matthew 4; Luke 4; Hebrews 4:15; 2 Corinthians 5:21)

We believe in the literal, bodily return of Jesus Christ to earth (Revelations 19)

Mankind

Man is a special creation of God, made in His image (Genesis 1:26-27)

The Fall

Mankind fell through the sin of the first man, Adam, and that all men are sinners in need of salvation. (Genesis 3:15; Romans 5:12-15)

Salvation

Salvation is a gift of grace from God, received through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. (Romans 6:23, Titus 3:5; Ephesians 2:8-9; John 1:12)

Every person who truly is saved is eternally secure in the Lord Jesus Christ. (John 10:28-30; Ephesians 1:13-14; Hebrews 7:25, 10:10-14)

The Church

The local church is the local body of baptized believers with the Lord Jesus Christ as the head. (Ephesians 1:22-23)

Eternity

Those persons who die without faith in Jesus Christ will spend eternity in Hell and those persons who die with their sins forgiven, through faith in Christ, spend eternity in Heaven. (John 3:16; Revelations 20:14-15)

Baptism

Water baptism is in obedience to the command of Christ and is by immersion after salvation. (Romans 6:3-10)

Believers

Each believer has direct access to God through the Lord Jesus Christ, the Bible, God's Word. (1 Timothy 2:5-6; Hebrews 10:19-26)

Government

We believe in the separation of church and state, but not in the separation of God and government. (1 Peter 2:13-17).
