WE BELIEVE

These beliefs include:

We believe the Scriptures, in their original autographs, are God's inspired, inerrant, infallible, and authoritative Word, revealing His truth and guiding faith and practice.

Scripture: 2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21; Psalm 119:105

We believe there is one living and true God, eternally existing as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Scripture: Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14

We believe that humanity is created in the Image of God. We believe all people have sinned. We believe that salvation is by grace through faith, not by works.

Scripture: Genesis 1:27; Romans 3:23; Romans 5:12; Ephesians 2:8-9

We believe salvation is by faith in Jesus Christ. We believe Christ died a substitutionary death and rose bodily.

We believe the following verses teach about salvation:

The universal problem of sin
Romans 3:23
"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;"

The consequence of sin
Romans 6:23
"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."

God's demonstration of love
Romans 5:8
"But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."

The response of faith
Romans 10:9-10
"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."

"For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

Romans 10:13
"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

The result of justification by faith
Romans 5:1
"Therefore, being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ."
