Core Values
The Scriptures are inspired by God and declare His design and plan for mankind.
There is only One True God—revealed in three persons...Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
In the Diety of the Lord Jesus Christ. As God's son Jesus was both human and divine.
Though originally good, man willingly fell to sin—ushering evil and death, both physical and spiritual, into the world.
Every person can have restored fellowship with God through salvation (trusting Christ, through faith and repentance, to be our personal Savior).
And practice two ordinances—(1) Water baptism by immersion after repenting of one's sins and receiving Christ's gift of salvation, and (2) Holy Communion (the Lord's Supper) as a symbolic remembrance of Christ's suffering and death for our salvation.
In the baptism of the Holy Spirit that empowers believers for witnessing and effective service, just as it did in New Testament times.
That sanctification initially occurs at salvation and is not only a declaration that a believer is holy, but also a progressive lifelong process of separating from evil as believers continually draw closer to God and become more Christlike.
The Church has a mission, to seek and save all who are lost in sin. We believe 'the Church' is the Body of Christ and consists of the people who, throughout time, have accepted God's offer of redemption (regardless of religious denomination) through the sacrificial death of His son Jesus Christ.
