Our Doctrinal Beliefs

The Trinity

There is one God who co-exists in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. They are equal in authority and nature, but they fulfill different roles.

Matthew 28:19

Person of Christ

The Lord Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God and second person of the Trinity, became truly and fully man, without ceasing to be God, having been conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary, in order that He might reveal God and redeem sinful humanity.

Colossians 2:9-10

Bible

Scriptures are God’s divinely inspired words and therefore are our sole authority for life.
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.

2 Timothy 3:16

Salvation

Salvation is the free gift of God for the redemption of man from the power and penalty of sin. Because of Jesus’ death and resurrection, by faith, salvation is offered to all who accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.

Romans 10:9-10

Last Things

God, in His own time and in His own way, will bring the world to its appropriate end. According to His promise, Jesus Christ will return personally and visibly in glory to the earth; the dead will be raised; and Christ will judge all men in righteousness. The unrighteous will be consigned to Hell, the place of everlasting punishment. The righteous in their resurrected and glorified bodies will receive their reward and will dwell forever in the New Earth with the Lord.

John 14:3; Revelation 21:3
