What We Believe About God
We believe in one God who exists eternally in three persons: the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This mystery of the Trinity reveals a God who is both relational and perfect in unity.
Scripture Reference: Matthew 28:19, John 14:16-17, 1 John 5:7
What We Believe About the Bible
We believe the Bible is a library of books, inspired by the Holy Spirit and written by human authors. It is the authoritative guide for faith and practice, and we trust it as the foundation for our lives.
Scripture Reference: 2 Timothy 3:16, Hebrews 4:12, 2 Peter 1:21
What We Believe About Humanity
We believe that all people are created in the image of God, but all have sinned and fall short of God’s glory. Repentance is necessary for forgiveness, and through faith in Jesus Christ, we are justified and born again.
Scripture Reference: Romans 3:23, Acts 2:38, John 3:16-17
What We Believe About the Church
We believe the Church is the body of Christ, called to worship God, spread the gospel, and serve others. As believers, we are to be united in purpose and grow together in faith.
Scripture Reference: Ephesians 4:11-16, Matthew 28:18-20, Acts 2:42
What We Believe About Spiritual Gifts
We believe that spiritual gifts are given to believers for the purpose of building up the Church. Baptism in the Holy Spirit empowers believers for service, and speaking in tongues is the initial evidence of this baptism.
Scripture Reference: 1 Corinthians 12:4-11, Acts 2:4, Acts 1:8
What We Believe About Eternity
We believe in the premillennial return of Jesus Christ to resurrect the righteous dead and catch away the living saints. Eternal life is promised to believers, while eternal separation from God awaits those who reject Christ.
Scripture Reference: 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, Revelation 20:1-6, John 3:36
What We Believe About Marriage & Sexuality
We believe that marriage is a sacred covenant established by God between one man and one woman. It is a lifelong commitment that reflects Christ’s love for the Church. Human sexuality is a gift from God, designed to be expressed within the boundaries of biblical marriage. We affirm God’s design for gender, as He created male and female in His image. As followers of Christ, we uphold biblical truth with love, inviting all to experience transformation through Jesus.
Scripture Reference: Genesis 1:27, Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6, Ephesians 5:25, 1 Corinthians 6:9-11
