Our Core Beliefs
Holy Bible
We believe the Bible is the true, inspired living Word of God, that the Bible is without error, and is essential for teaching and directing our lives as believers.
The Trinity
We believe that God is the one and only God, who exists as three divine beings; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Each figure has a different role in our lives, but all are equally worthy of glory, honor, and praise!
God the Father
We believe that the Father is the creator of the universe. He is all-knowing and all-powerful, having ultimate authority over all creation. We believe that He sent His Son Jesus to die for our sins, and that He sent the Holy Spirit to humans as an advocating source of divine authority. Only He knows the true time of Christ's return.
God the Son
We believe that Jesus Christ, the Son of God came to earth in human flesh, was born from the virgin Mary. We believe that Christ's life and His messages teach us how to live our lives as believers. We believe that Jesus Christ was mocked, beaten, and crucified as a sinless man for the forgiveness of sins to bring us into right relationship with God. We believe that Christ rose from the dead on the third day and later ascended into Heaven where He is seated at the right hand of the Father. We believe that Christ will someday return to earth to collect His bride, the Church.
God the Holy Spirit
We believe that God the Father sent the Holy Spirit down to earth to be a seal for the children of God. We believe that the Holy Spirit has many roles in believers' lives. He is our Advocate, Comforter, Encourager, Counselor, and Helper. We believe the Holy Spirit convicts the world of sin and He is the revealer of all Truth. We believe the Holy Spirit gives the Body of Christ gifts to aid the spread of the Gospel.
