Our Beliefs
The Bible
The Bible was written by men who were inspired by God and is the only means by which we may come to know God, His Son, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. By faith in Jesus Christ alone as the savior of the world, each of us may obtain salvation. Every word within the pages of the Bible is true and without error.
God
There is only one God, but He exists in three forms - God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. As the creator of all things, His knowledge and power are unlimited, as is His love for you and me. Each of us is invited to enter into a relationship with God whereby we may obtain the wisdom He bestows upon us and know His perfect will for our lives.
Jesus
Jesus is the human incarnation of God. As God's only Son, Jesus was born of a virgin and lived a life completely free of sin. His purpose was to teach us to live and to love according to his Father's will before willingly dying on a cross so that our sins may be forgiven. Three days after his body was placed in a tomb, Jesus rose from death to validate the truth he delivered as being the Son of God. Today Jesus waits for us at God's side in heaven. Soon he will raise the body of believers that make up the church to be with him forever. Jesus will also return to earth one day to avenge the wicked and to reveal himself to those who do not believe.
Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is God. According to Jesus, the Spirit serves as a helper who comes to dwell within the hearts of all who have placed their trust in God. The Spirit serves as a means of communication between our hearts and our Lord, Jesus. Also called the Holy Ghost, it was this helper who inspired those under Jesus' ministry to write the scripture found on the pages of the Bible.
