Humans are made in the image of God and are the supreme object of His creation. They were created to have fellowship with God but became separated in that relationship through sinful disobedience. As a result, mankind cannot attain a right relationship with God through his own effort. Every human personality is uniquely created, possesses dignity, and is worthy of respect and Christian love.
Genesis 1:26-30; 2:7, 18-22; 3; Psalms 8:3-6; 32:1-5; 51:5; Isaiah 6:5; Jeremiah 17:5; Acts 17:26-31; Romans 1:19-32; 3:10-18, 23; 5:6; 6:6; 7:14-25; 1 Corinthians 1:21-31; 15:19, 21-22; Ephesians 2; Colossians 1:21-22; 3:9-11

We believe all humans are sinful by nature and can only be forgiven by repentance and trust in Jesus as Savior, brought about by the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit. Salvation occurs when people place their faith in the death and resurrection of Christ as sufficient payment for their sin. Salvation is a gift from God, and it cannot be earned through our own efforts.
Isaiah 1:18; 53:5-6; 55:7; Matthew 1:21; 27:22-66, 28:1-6; Luke 1:68-69; 2:28-32; John 1:11-13; 3:3-18, 36; 5:24; Acts 2:21; 4:12; 16:30-31; Romans 1:16-18; 3:23-25; 5:8-10; 6; 1 Corinthians 1:18; 2 Corinthians 5:17-20; Galatians 2:20; 3:13; Ephesians 2:8-10; Philippians 2:12-13; Titus 3:5-7; Hebrews 9:24-28

Man was created to exist forever. He will exist either eternally separated from God by sin or in union with God through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God is Hell. To be eternally in union with Him is Heaven. Heaven and Hell are places of eternal existence.
John 3:16, 36; Romans 6:23; 1 John 2:25; 5:11-13; Revelation 20:15

We believe Jesus Christ is the Head of the Church, His Body, which is composed of all people, living and dead, who have been joined to Him through saving faith. It is committed to the teachings of Christ and obeying all of His commands, and it seeks to bring the Gospel to the world. The Church works together in love and unity, intent on the ultimate purpose of glorifying Christ.
Matthew 16:18-19; 18:15-20; Acts 2:41-47; 5:11-14; 13:1-3; 14:23; 16:5; 20:28; 1 Corinthians 7:17; 9:13-14; 12:27; Ephesians 1:22-23; 2:19-22; 3:10-12; 5:22-32; Colossians 1:18; 3:15; 1 Timothy 4:14; 1 Peter 5:1-4; Revelation 21:2-3

The Bible is the inspired, infallible, authoritative Word of God. It was written by human authors under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit.
Isaiah 40:8; Romans 15:4; 2 Timothy 3:15-17; Hebrews 4:12; 1 Peter 1:23-25

We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14

God is great: He is all powerful, all knowing, ever present, unchanging, completely worthy of our trust, and above all, holy. It is in Him that we live, move and exist. God is good: He is our Father. He is loving, compassionate, and faithful to His people and His promises.
Exodus 3:14; Numbers 23:19; Leviticus 11:44-45; 19:2; Psalm 11:4-6; Malachi 3:6; John 3:16; 4:24; 5:26; 14:1; Acts 17:28; Romans 3:3-4

We believe Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man, born of a virgin, and sinless in His life. He died on the cross as a substitution for sinful humanity. He rose bodily from the grave and now reigns with the Father. He will return visibly and personally to the earth both in salvation and judgment.
Acts 1:11; Hebrews 9:28; Matthew 24:32-44; John 1:1, 14; Matthew 1:18; Hebrews 4:15; Hebrews 9:11-15; John 20:1-31; Acts 2:24; Acts 2:33; Hebrews 10:12.

We believe in the ministry of the Holy Spirit for conviction of sin, salvation/justification, sanctification, and godly living. The Holy Spirit is the believer’s guide/counselor and empowers the believer to be a witness in the world.
