WE BELIEVE
-
We believe in one God – the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
-
We believe that the Old and New Testament Scriptures, given by plenary inspiration, contain all truth necessary to faith and Christian living.
-
We believe that human beings are born with a fallen nature, and are, therefore, inclined to evil, and that continually.
-
We believe that the finally impenitent are hopelessly and eternally lost.
-
We believe that the atonement through Jesus Christ is for the whole human race; and that whosoever repents and believes in the Lord Jesus Christ is justified and regenerated and saved from the dominion of sin.
-
We believe that believers experience the ministry of the Holy Spirit, enabling them to live godly lives and to continue in spiritual growth.
-
We believe that the Holy Spirit bears witness to the new birth, and to the sanctifying work of God in our lives.
-
We believe that our Lord will return, the dead will be raised, and the final judgment will take place.
WE ARE BECOMING
We deeply desire and have committed ourselves to becoming more and more like Christ. We want to live lives worthy of the name of Christ by practicing humility, gentleness, patience, and by accepting one another with love. We work hard to preserve the unity of the spirit and to be people who know and share the peace and presence of Christ. We realize that God is on a rescue mission to redeem and restore all of creation and we want to do our part to make that restoration happen. We don't just go to church; we are the church.
Therefore, as a prisoner for the Lord, I encourage you to live as people worthy of the call you received from God. 2 Conduct yourselves with all humility, gentleness, and patience. Accept each other with love, 3 and make an effort to preserve the unity of the Spirit with the peace that ties you together. 4 You are one body and one spirit, just as God also called you in one hope. 5 There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 and one God and Father of all, who is over all, through all, and in all.
