Statement of Faith
God is the Sovereign King. He is eternal, unchanging and all-powerful; He is perfect in holiness, wisdom, goodness, justice and love. He is the Creator of all and by His grace all things are sustained. He exists as the one true and living God in three persons of one substance: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, equal in power and majesty.
Jesus Christ is God's eternal Son. As true God and true man He allowed Himself to be born of a virgin, taught men how to live through His sinless life, was crucified as a sacrifice for our sins, arose bodily from the dead, was seen by over 500 persons and returned to heaven to prepare a place for us.
Men and women were created in God's image. He was tempted by Satan and rebelled against God. For this reason all people are sinners by nature and are therefore under condemnation. Through repentance and personal faith in Jesus Christ, we are forgiven our sins, reborn by the Holy Spirit and we become children of God.
Marriage has been established by God. This church recognizes "marriage" as exclusively the legal union of one man and one woman.
The Holy Spirit persuades us to repent of our sins and confess Jesus as Lord. He lives in us, teaches us, gifts us and enables us to live godly lives. Jesus Christ baptizes the seeking believer with the Holy Spirit and power for service, as a second experience subsequent to regeneration.
In water baptism by immersion and communion as symbolic elements of Christ's sacrifice that spiritually dispense His grace to born-again believers.
Jesus Christ will return personally and visibly to Earth to raise the dead, judge the world and establish His glorious kingdom.
