Our Beliefs
What We Believe
Theological Beliefs
-
We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God—fully God and fully man. He was conceived by the virgin Mary, lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sins, rose from the dead, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. Jesus is not a created being, but God Himself, and He will one day return at a time known only by the Father.
Scripture: John 1:1, John 1:14, John 10:30, Luke 1:27, 2 Corinthians 5:21, Matthew 24:42
-
We believe the Bible is God's inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word. Though written by human authors under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, Scripture is without error and is our final authority for faith and everyday living. It provides God's truth and direction for every area of life.
Scripture: 2 Timothy 3:16–17, Isaiah 40:8, 1 Thessalonians 2:13
-
We believe there is one God who exists eternally in three distinct persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Each is fully God, equal in nature and purpose, yet together they are one God.
Scripture: Luke 3:22, John 14:26, Matthew 28:19, 1 Peter 1:2, John 1:14, 1 John 5:20, 1 Timothy 2:5
-
We believe salvation is God's free gift of grace and cannot be earned through good works. We receive salvation by placing our faith in Jesus Christ, repenting of our sins, confessing Him as Lord, and living a life transformed by His grace.
Scripture: John 3:16, Acts 2:21, Romans 10:9–10, Romans 3:23, Ephesians 2:8–9, Titus 2:11–12, Acts 16:31
-
We believe water baptism is an act of obedience that follows salvation. It is a public declaration of an inward transformation through faith in Jesus Christ. Baptism does not save us but demonstrates our commitment to follow Him. We practice baptism by full immersion.
Scripture: Matthew 28:19–20, Romans 6:3–4, Colossians 2:12, Acts 2:41
-
We believe Communion, or the Lord's Supper, is a sacred remembrance of Jesus' sacrifice on the cross. The bread symbolizes His body, and the cup represents His blood shed for the forgiveness of our sins. Communion is an act of worship and remembrance for those who have placed their faith in Christ.
Scripture: Matthew 26:26–28, 1 Corinthians 11:23–27, Mark 14:22–25
-
We believe sin is anything that goes against God's character and His Word. Every person has sinned and is in need of God's forgiveness. Through Jesus' death and resurrection, we are offered redemption, freedom, and new life in Him.
Scripture: Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23, Romans 6:15, 1 Peter 2:24, Leviticus 5:17, 1 John 3:4
Our theological beliefs are rooted in the truth of Scripture and guide who we are, what we teach, and how we live. These foundational beliefs shape our understanding of God, His Word, salvation, and our calling as followers of Christ.
