We believe the Bible to be the only inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God. The Bible alone sets forth the standard and truth for faith, practice, and knowledge of the one true God.

We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit; One in essence, yet three distinct persons composing the triune God.

We believe in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ; Jesus of Nazareth is very God and very man. We believe in the virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal, future return to this earth in power and glory to rule over the nations.

We believe that man is the direct creation of God, made in the image and likeness of God. Man is a tripartite being composed of spirit, soul, and body. Man was created for God’s glory.

We believe that the only way to be forgiven and cleansed from sin is through repentance and personal faith in the precious Blood and Person of Jesus Christ.

We believe in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit through Whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a holy, victorious, and wholesome life.

We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost: the saved to everlasting life and the lost to everlasting damnation.

We believe in the church. The purpose of the church is to corporately worship God. The church is commanded to go out and make disciples. It is also commanded to build up each Christian by developing personal character, abilities, and gifting. The five fold ministry gifts have been set in the church to equip Christians to do the work of the Lord. In this way, each Christian grows in his/her knowledge, calling, and place of service in the Lord.
