Our Beliefs

What We Believe

Like the early fathers of the Christian faith, we believe in God the Father almighty and Jesus Christ, His only begotten Son, our Lord and Savior, who was born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. On the third day, He rose again, ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy universal church, the communion of the saints, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. We believe the Bible to be the inspired Word of God.

Our Beliefs

God is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. The Godhead exists in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. All three persons of the Godhead are equal in power and form one God.

Genesis 1:1
Genesis 1:26-27
Genesis 3:22
Psalm 90:2
Matthew 28:19
1 Corinthians 15:3–4
2 Corinthians 13:14

Jesus Christ is the second person of the trinity. He is the only begotten Son of God. He is equal with the Father. He is our Lord and Savior, who was born of the virgin Mary. He came in full deity to earth in flesh and blood, lived a sinless life though tempted as a man. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified on the cross for the sins of the world, died and was buried. He was raised again by the Father after three days, ascended into heaven and now sits as judge of mankind at the right hand of the Father in heaven. He will come again to judge the living and the dead and take his followers with Him to eternally reign by His side forevermore.

Matthew 1:22–23
Isaiah 9:6
John 1:1–5
John 14:10–30
Hebrews 4:14–15
1 Corinthians 15:3–4
Romans 1:3–4
Acts 1:9–11
1 Timothy 6:14-15
Titus 2:13

The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Godhead. He is equal with God yet different in function. He lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with the power for living, understanding spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right.

2 Corinthians 3:17
John 16:7–13
John 14:16–17
Acts 1:8
1 Corinthians 2:12
1 Corinthians 3:16
Ephesians 1:13
Galatians 5:25
Ephesians 5:18

Human beings are made in the spiritual image of God. They are the supreme object of God’s creation. Human beings are born into sin, and by this sin are separate from God. People are unable to save themselves.

Genesis 1:27
Psalm 8:3–6
Isaiah 53:6
Romans 3:23
Isaiah 59:1-2

Salvation is a free gift of God to man. Man can never make up for his sin by self-improvement or good works. Only by trusting in Jesus Christ as the atonement for sin can man be saved from sin’s penalty.

Romans 6:23
Ephesians 2:8–9
John 14:6
John 1:12
Titus 3:5
Galatians 3:26
Romans 5:1

The Bible is the inspired Word of God. The Bible is God’s Word to all people. It was written by human authors under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. It is inspired by God and is inerrant.

2 Timothy 3:16
2 Peter 1:20–21
2 Timothy 1:13
Psalm 119:105
Psalm 119:160
Psalm 12:6
Proverbs 30:5

Humans were created to live forever. They will either exist eternally with God or eternally separate from Him. To be with the Lord for eternity is heaven, and to be eternally separated from the Lord is hell (lake of fire).

John 3:16
John 14:17
Romans 6:23
Romans 8:17–18
Revelation 20:15
1 Corinthians 2:7–9
Proverbs 30:5
