We believe in ONE GOD REVEALED IN THREE PERSONS

We believe in one God who is Spirit in His essence, eternal in His existence, and Triune in His personage, being revealed to us in Scripture as distinctly Father, Son and Holy Ghost. We believe that He is Sovereign and Absolute in His authority and worthy of all reverence and obedience.

GOD THE FATHER

We believe in the Father who is God Himself, who reigns supreme and sustains His universe. His providential hand has shaped the flow of human history in loving-kindness and mercy according to the purposes of His divine grace.

GOD THE SON

We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God. He existed before his incarnation as the eternal Logos and in His incarnation he was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. Jesus was fully God and fully man and He perfectly revealed the will of God to mankind. He lived a life of perfect obedience to the will of the Father and thus fulfilled all the law and He totally identified with mankind yet without sin. He suffered, died, was buried, and rose from the dead for our total salvation. He ascended into heaven and is now exalted at the right hand of God the Father where He is the One Mediator between God and man. We believe that Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Him.

GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT

We believe in the Holy Spirit who is God indwelling, empowering and regenerating the believer. This Holy Spirit is called the Comforter, the Spirit of Truth; He inspired and authored the Holy Scriptures through holy men who were used as vessels to write what the Holy Spirit divinely inspired. Through illumination, He enables men to understand the truth. He convicts the world of sin, of righteousness and of judgment. He is the agent by whom men are called to reconcile to God and to regeneration. He cultivates Christian character, comforts believers, and bestows the spiritual gifts which empower believers to serve God in the body of Christ. He seals the believer until the day of redemption and by His presence in the believer, gives the assurance to bring them into the fullness of the stature of Christ.

We believe that every true believer is indwelt with the Holy Spirit at the point of salvation and becomes a partaker in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. We believe that Christians may be filled daily by yielding to the Holy Spirit, but the evidence of the Holy Spirit's indwelling presence is a changed life and the manifestation of the fruit of the Spirit.

MAN

We believe man was created from the dust of the ground by a special act of God. He was created in the image and likeness of God, and is the crowning work of God’s creation. Man was given a free will by God, to choose to serve Him willingly . In man’s innocence he pleased God and brought glory to God, which is his purpose. By his free choice man sinned against God and thus sinned entered the world and brought condemnation upon all mankind. The state of innocence being lost through sin, man’s nature was now prone toward sin and disobedience to the commands of God.

SALVATION

We believe that the blood of Jesus Christ atones for our sins and iniquity. It is through His shed blood that we are saved, healed and set free from bondage and the forces of darkness .

We believe that every believer must have a personal and intimate relationship with Jesus Christ, for apart from Him we can do nothing. Each person has a ministry from God that no one else can fill. We are to instruct, teach, exhort, and admonish believers in the ways of God .

We believe in justification by faith. We believe that salvation is free and apart from any work of man is a result of the sovereign grace of God.
