What We Believe
We study no book but the Bible, have no creed but the Christ, no way but Christ's way, and no church but His ONE church (1 Peter 4:11). We believe that "all authority hath been given unto Me, in heaven and on earth" (Matthew 28:18) and regard that authority in all we do--worship, teaching, and benevolence. We warmly welcome you to come hear the gospel of Christ & investigate all that we practice. If you have any questions, send us a message via the "Contact Us" page.
The
Bible
The Bible is God’s inspired word, written by human authors under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth and the standard used to live the Christian life, both individually and as a church. It is truth without error. We hold the Word of God to be the only authority in all matters and assert that no doctrine can be true or essential, if it does not find a place in this Word. 2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21; Psalms 12:6; Psalms 119:105,160; Proverbs 30:5; Isaiah 40:8; Hebrew 4:12; Matthew 24:35
The Father
There is one true, eternal God who created and sustains the universe. God co-exists equally as the God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ) and God the Holy Spirit. He has revealed himself through creation, history, and ultimately, through the life of Jesus Christ. Genesis 12:1-2; Genesis 1:26-27; Job 38:1-41; Psalms 90:2; John 3:16; Romans 1:19-20; 2 Corinthians 13:14; Ephesians 4:6; Isaiah 44:6; John 1:1, 14
The
Son
Jesus Christ is the Son of God, co-equal with God the Father and God the Spirit–-both fully divine and fully human. He is the fulfillment of all God’s promises and purposes for humanity. Jesus lived a sinless life and modeled for us the best way to live as people created in the image of God. He offered himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all people by dying on the cross. He then arose from the dead, demonstrating his power over sin and death, ascended back to God the Father in heaven to be our mediating priest, and will return again to judge the world and redeem His people. Colossians 2:9, Philippians 2:5-9, Hebrews 1:3, Hebrews 4:14-15; I Timothy 2:5; Acts 1:9-11; Romans 1:3-4; Romans 5:10; John 1:1-5, 14; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is coequal with God the Father and God the Son. The Holy Spirit is a gift given to indwell every believer when they are baptized. He is a deposit from God the Father guaranteeing Jesus’ return. The Holy Spirit provides Christians with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth and guides us in holiness. John 16:13; Acts 1:8; John 14:16-17; Romans 8, Ephesians 1:13-14; Galatians 5:16, 22-25; 1 Corinthians 2:12, 3:16; 2 Corinthians 13:14
Salvation
What Must I Do to Be Saved? Salvation is promised to those who believe, accept, and obey Jesus Christ. Peter declared that about Jesus, "There is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under Heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved" (Acts 4:12). Jesus stated, "For unless you believe that I am He, you shall die in your sins" (John 8:24). Also, He said, "Not every one that says to me Lord, Lord, will ever enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father, who is in heaven" (Matthew 7:21).
Steps To Salvation:
Hear the Gospel (Acts 2:22, 41); Believe in Jesus (Acts 2:37, 41);
Repent of Sin (Acts 2:38); Confess Faith in Christ (Matt 10:32-33, 1 John 4:14-15)
Be Baptized (Acts 2:38, 41); Be Faithful (Hebrews 10:23-26, Galatians 5:16-20)
