Congregational lead:  We believe the power and authority of God is transferred directly to every member of our church. It is the church members’ responsibility to ensure the church is following God’s design as defined in the Bible.

Faith Statement

 

Core Values:

  • We believe the Bible, including both the Old and New Testaments, to be verbally inspired, God breathed, authoritative and infallible word of God.
  • We believe in one God- the divine Trinity- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, externally existing, equal in essence and attributes: yet distinct in office and activity
  • We believe Jesus is God incarnate in human form. He is the second person in the trinity who, being born of the Virgin Mary, came to live among us, die for us, and was resurrected.
  • We believe in the Holy Spirit, the third person of the Godhead, who convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment and regenerates, leads, comforts, enlightens, and sanctifies believers and seals them unto the day of redemption.
  • We believe in salvation by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, apart from human works or ceremonies.
  • Marriage is a covenantal relationship between one biological man and one biological woman and is the only acceptable place for sexual intimacy.
  • We believe in the pre-tribulation and premillennial coming of the Lord Jesus Christ for His redeemed ones, and in His subsequent return to earth, with His saints, to establish His millennial kingdom.
  • We believe that man was made in the image of God.
