What We Believe
We are a Bible-believing congregation and hold to the Holy Word of God as the ultimate authority of all aspects of life.
1. God created the universe as we know it completely perfect (Gen 1)
2. Mankind decided to disobey God’s commands, bringing sin into the world, and separating us from God. (Gen 3; Romans 3:23)
3. While God is without sin, He loves us and wants us to be with Him. So, God paid the price for our sin.
4. The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23) God came to us and became sin for us when Jesus Christ, God the Son, was crucified on a Roman cross. (Romans 5:8)
5. Jesus Christ died on that cross, paying the price for our sin, and after being laid in a tomb for 3 days, He resurrected from the dead, and was witnessed by over 500 people. Jesus defeated the power of sin!
6. Jesus ascended into heaven and is now seated at the right-hand side of the Father. And now, for all who proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord, and are filled with the Holy Spirit, salvation and eternal life are guaranteed. (Romans 10:9)
7. An eternal Kingdom is coming, when Jesus Christ will come as King, and until then, God works through His Church to bring the Gospel – the Good News of salvation – to all peoples of all nations.
