What we believe

About GodThere is One God who exists in a co-equal and co-eternal Triune Nature with distinct personal attributes. He reveals Himself to us as a Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, but without division of nature, essence, or being (Genesis 1:1-2; Genesis 1:26; Matthew 3:16-17; 1 John 5:7-8; John 1:1-4; John 14:16-17; John 14:26; 1 Cor.8:6).

About JesusJesus is the Savior of all mankind, who loves you so much that He was willing to die in your place on the Cross. Jesus is the Creator God Who left Heaven and came to Earth to be born of a virgin so that He as both a man and God could pay the infinite price of sin for us. He is the only way of salvation (Matthew 1:20-23; John 1:1-3 & 14; 1 Timothy 3:16; John 10:30; John 14:6; Acts 4:12; Hebrews 2:9).
About the ResurrectionJesus Christ arose from the dead literally and bodily, thus guaranteeing that all who trust him as Savior will also live again and have eternal life in Heaven to which Christ ascended. (John 11:25-26; 1 Corinthians 15:1-8 & 51-57)
About CreationWe believe that God created the world and the universe in 6 literal days exactly as described in Genesis 1 & 2 (Exodus 20:11; Psalm 100; Colossians 1:16-17).
About BaptismEvery believer in Jesus Christ is to be baptized by immersion as a public testimony of their faith in Christ and as a symbol of the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ (Acts 8:35-39).

About SalvationSalvation is entirely by grace through faith in Jesus Christ (Ephesians 2:8-9), and believers are eternally secure (saved forever). You can receive the free gift of salvation by believing on Christ.
About the Return of ChristWe believe in the literal Second Coming of Jesus Christ (Acts 1:11). We teach the pre-tribulation Rapture of the saved and the pre-millennial Second Coming of Christ. (John 14:1-3; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; 1 Corinthians 15:51-55; Revelation 20:6)
About EternityWe believe that there is a literal Heaven (that is better than anything the human mind can imagine), and a literal Hell where those who reject Christ’s love will suffer for eternity (John 14:1-3; 1 Corinthians 2:9; Matthew 25:46; Revelation 20:14-15).
About MarriageWe embrace the biblical concept of one-man and one-woman marriage that is found in both the Old Testament and New Testament of God’s Holy Word (Genesis 2:22-24; Leviticus 20:13; Mark 10:6-9; 1 Corinthians 7:2; Ephesians 5:31; Ephesians 5:33).
