Beliefs

Foundational Truths

One God

We believe in the One True God of eternally self-existent and the Creator of
heaven and earth. He has further revealed Himself as the embodying
principles of the Trinity, which is the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
– Deuteronomy 6:4
– Isaiah 43:10-11
– Matthew 28:19
– Luke 3:22

Jesus Christ

We believe that Jesus is the one and only Son of God. God made flesh and
born of a virgin to bring hope to the world and be the ultimate sacrifice for
the sin of all of mankind. He died on the cross and rose again on the third
day. He is in heaven and is sitting at the right hand of the Father and will
one day return. And those that believe in Him, will have eternal salvation.
– John 1:14
– John 5:18
– John 10:30
– Isaiah 7:14

Holy Spirit

We believe the Baptism of the Holy Spirit is available to all believers. It is
separate from salvation. The Holy Spirit brings power to the believer to be
effective witnesses for Jesus, as well as He blesses us with spiritual gifts
for the encouragement of others, and empowers us to yield the fruit of the
Spirit. We believe that the work of the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost is
active today. The Holy Spirit is the comforter and helper Jesus promised.
– Acts chapter 2
– John 14:26

– Acts 1:8
– John 14:15-17
– 1 Corinthians 12:1-31
– John 16:7

The Bible

We believe the Bible and it’s scriptures within are God inspired. The
scriptures both the Old and New Testaments, are the truth, verbally inspired
of God and are the revelation of God to man. Nothing can be added or
taken away.
– 2 Timothy 3:15-17
– 1 Thessalonians 2:13
– 2 Peter 1:21
– Matthew 24:35

Water Baptism

We believe in full immersion Water Baptism. It is a public declaration to
others that a person has believed Jesus Christ for their salvation. Baptism
by immersion in water represents the person being crucified, buried and
resurrected with Jesus, and testimony of the cleaning power of God and
one’s faith into a new life with him. (The old self is gone and that you are a
new creation as a believer) Jesus modeled this himself and was baptized in
this manner.
– Matthew 3:16-17
– 1 Peter 3:21
– Luke 3:21-22

Communion

We believe Communion is intended for believer’s of Jesus Christ, by which
they acknowledge and remember His work on the cross and our
remembrance of Him.

– Matthew 26:26-28
– 1 Corinthians 11:23-26
– John 6:53-58

Missions

We believe in spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ locally and abroad.

– Matthew 28:19-20
– Acts 13:37
– Mark 16:15

entire families) stand before the church and make a commitment to raise
their child(ren) according to the Word of God. Christian parents who

foundation of the family, and as an example of the spiritual marriage with
Jesus as the groom, and His church as the bride.
