We believe:

The Bible is God's written revelation to man.  In its original form, it is inerrant, infallible, and inspired by the Holy Spirit through human authors God chose.  It is the sole source of knowledge and instruction for practicing the faith.  There are multiple applications for Scripture but there is only one correct interpretation.

There is only one true and living God.  He has always been and will always be.  He is the creator of and sovereign over all that exists.  God exists in three persons; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  Each person is co-equal and equally deserving of worship and obedience. The Father orders and disposes all things according to His own purpose and grace.  The Son is Jesus Christ who became the God-Man some 2000 years ago.  He was virgin born, suffered punishment for our sins on the cross, died on the cross, was buried, and rose from the grave three days later.  This act of redemption provides salvation for all who place their faith in Him.  The Holy Spirit  executes  divine will and participates in the sovereign work of salvation.                                

Man is a descendant of the the first man, Adam who was created in the image and likeness of God. Adam's sin of disobedience and subsequent banishment from the Garden of Eden resulted in all men being born sinners in need of a savior to be able to once again be reunited in God's presence. 

Salvation is purely the work of God through His grace.  It is through this grace by our faith in Jesus Christ alone that we are saved.  Man can do nothing to save himself and can never attain any righteousness of his own through any amount of prayer, works, good living, or religious activity.

A person who is truly saved by grace is regenerated, justified, sanctified, and has eternal security in the person of Jesus Christ.  The saved person will be repentant and his new life will produce good works that God has planned for him or her.

All who are saved by grace are members of one united spiritual body which is the church.  The church is the bride of Christ and Christ is the head of this church.  Christ is the supreme authority of the church and the church is distinct from Israel.

The living members of the church will be raptured one day and that day is unknowable to us.  Those members of the church who die physically before the rapture will at death be immediately reunited with Christ with no loss of consciousness or time.  For more information click here: The Rapture Of The Church

Jesus Christ will come a second time to the earth.  There will be a time of severe tribulation prior to His return.  At His return, He will establish His messianic kingdom and will reign over it with the resurrected saints for a thousand years.

At the end of the thousand years, all the unsaved will be resurrected and judged at the Great White Throne.  They will be cast into eternal punishment along with Satan.  Following this judgment, the saints will enter the eternal state of glory with God and dwell with Him forever.
 
 

 

 

 
 
 
 

 The belief that does not save is the belief that does not change the person who believes. Jesus said that if you believe in Him, you would be changed
