We believe there is one God, eternally existing in three persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit (Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19; Mark 12:29).
We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His substitutionary and atoning death, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the Father and His imminent personal future return to this earth in power and glory to rule over the nations (Isaiah 7:14; Hebrews 7:26; Acts 2:22; I Corinthians 15:3-4; Acts 1:9-11).
We believe that all Scripture is inspired by God and is our final and supreme authority in faith and life (2 Timothy 3:16).
We believe that man was created good and upright with dignity, but man voluntarily sinned, and thereby incurred both physical and spiritual death, which is separation from God (Genesis 1:26-27, 2:17, 3:6; Romans 5:12-19).
We believe that the only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ who, by His death as our substitute on the cross, paid the penalty of our sin (Luke 24:47; Romans 10:13-15; Titus 2:11, 3:5-7).
We believe that any person who by faith and repentance receives Jesus Christ is born again as a child of God and inherits eternal life (Mark 1:15; John 1:12-13, 3:16; Ephesians 2:8-10).
We believe that the ordinances of the Church are communion, or the Lord’s Supper, and baptism in water, by immersion, in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit (I Corinthians 11:26; Matthew 28:19; Romans 6:3-4).
We believe one’s relationship to God leads to a separation from that which is evil to a dedication unto God. We further believe that the Christian is able to live a godly life by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit (1 Thessalonians 4:1-7; Hebrews 12:14; 1 Peter 1:15-16; Philippians 2:12-14; 2 Peter 1:3-4).
We believe that the indwelling Holy Spirit is granted to all believers who trust God by responding to the truth that Jesus is Lord. At the time of repentance and faith the believer is sealed by the Holy Spirit, pledging ownership of the believer, and confirming the assurance of salvation. The same Spirit then guides and empowers us as we seek to live the fullness of the Christian life (Acts 5:32; I Corinthians 12:13).
We believe the Holy Spirit distributes spiritual gifts and ministries to each believer as He wills in this present day (1 Corinthians 12:4-11; Romans 12:6-8).
We believe that Christ provides healing for the human body in answer to believing prayer. We believe that God, in His love and wisdom, sovereignly intervenes according to His will, conforming us to the image of Christ (Isaiah 53:4-5, Matthew 8:16-17, Luke 4:17-19; Acts 3:16; James 5:14-16; Romans 8:28-30).
We believe in the resurrection of those who have fallen asleep in Christ and their translation together with those who are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord (1Thessalonians 4:16-17; Romans 8:23; Titus 2:13; 1 Corinthians 15:51-52).
We believe the Second Coming of Christ includes the rapture of the saints, followed by the visible return of Christ with His saints to rule and reign for one thousand years. The millennial reign will bring the salvation of the nation of Israel and establish universal peace (Zechariah 14:5; Matthew 24:27, 30; Revelation 1:7, 19:11-21, 20:1-6; Romans 11:26-27; Isaiah 11:6-9; Micah 4:3-4).
We believe that every one whose name is in the Book of Life shall stand before the Judgement Seat of Christ to give an account of the stewardship of his earthly life (Revelation 3:5; 1 Corinthians 3:11-15).
We believe there will be a final judgment, in which the wicked dead will be raised and judged according to their works. Whoever is not found written in the Book of Life will be consigned to everlasting punishment, which is the second death (Matthew 25:46; Mark 9:34-48; Revelation 19:20, 20:11-15, 21:8).
We believe according to His promise, that we are to look with assurance for "a new heaven and a new earth, the home of righteousness" (2 Peter 3:13; Revelation 21:22).
Current Series:
The Church. Who really needs to be a part of it? Why should we belong to something so archaic and so narrow? The culture around us seems to ask this question relentlessly, but what is the answer? Pastor Skip Heitzig presents a series of reasons why the church, as Christ established it, is so vitally important to the Christian walk. From God's original intent for His church, to the ways in which He uses us today, and the reasons why people attend and leave the church, this series emphasizes the importance of the Church and the need to revere it as divinely established.
