FOCUS & BELIEFS
Knowing Christ, Growing in Christ, Serving Others
-
We believe the Bible is the inerrant word of God, revealed to His servants, and recorded faultless in their original texts. They exist today by His divine will in the Old and New Testaments.
2 Timothy 3:16 “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.”
-
We believe God eternally exists in three persons, The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit.
John 1:1-2 “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.”
-
God The creator, omnipresent (always here), omniscience (always everywhere), omnipotent (all powerful), all knowing, merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth; God is immutable, just, and love.
Acts 17:24“God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands.”
-
Jesus Christ, The only begotten Son of God, our Savior, by whom all creation was made. Took upon himself the nature of man, being born of a virgin; lived a pure and sinless life on earth although tempted in all points like as we are. Suffered the rejection of God and man, submitted himself to the death by crucifixion, was buried and raised from the dead on the third day, and ascended into heaven to the right hand of God. We await his return to be gathered with him eternally.
Philippians 2:7-8 “But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.”
-
The comforter, reproves the world, guides us into all truth, is the seal of God’s approval in his children bringing fruit to God, and is manifested in the church through signs, wonders, and spiritual gifts.
John 15:26 “But when the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, He will bear witness about me.”
