OUR BELIEFS

STATEMENT OF BELIEFS

We believe all scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness. (2 Timothy 3:16)

We believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth (Genesis 1:1; Matthew 6:9), and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord (John 3:16; Romans 10:9), who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary (Luke 1:35; Matthew 1:23), suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried (Matthew 27:26-50); he descended into hell (Ephesians 4:9); the third day he rose again from the dead (1 Peter 3:18-20; Luke 24:6-7); he ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God, the Father almighty (Mark 16:19; Acts 1:9) advocating for us (I John 1:1); from there he will come to judge the living and the dead (2 Timothy 4:1; Revelation 20:12). We believe in the Holy Spirit (John 14:26; Acts 2:4) Who lives in us giving us guidance and comfort (John 14:26), the holy Christian Church, the fellowship of saints (Ephesians 4:4-5; Hebrews 12:1), the forgiveness of sins (1 John 1:9; Acts 2:38), the resurrection of the body (1 Corinthians 15:52; John 11:25), and life everlasting (John 3:16).
