What We Believe

I. God: There is one God, the Creator of the
universe, revealed in the unity of the Godhead
as God the Father, God the Son, and God the
Holy Spirit.
II. The Scriptures: The Scriptures are God’s
inerrant, divinely inspired revelation which
provide the standard for the believer’s faith
and practice.
III. Creation: God created all things for His
own glory.
IV. Satan: Satan is a person who with his
demons opposes all that is true and godly.
V. Depravity: Although created in the image of
God, man fell through sin and that sin nature
has been transmitted to every member of the
human race leaving each one unchangeably
depraved apart from divine grace.
VI. Salvation: Salvation is the work of God
based wholly on His grace and received
through faith in Christ Jesus whereby through
the death and blood of Jesus, God forgives
sinners, frees from condemnation, and gives full
assurance of future glorification.
VII. Security: All believers are eternally secure
in Jesus Christ.
VIII. The Church: A New Testament church is a
local congregation of baptized believers
acknowledging Jesus as her only Head. Jesus
instituted His church during His personal
ministry on earth and will perpetuate it until
His return.
IX. Last Things: Our risen Lord will return
personally in bodily form to receive His
redeemed unto Himself. All of the dead
will be raised in order: the righteous dead
in “the resurrection of life” and the
wicked dead in “the resurrection of
damnation.” Heaven is the eternal home of
the redeemed and hell is the place of
eternal punishment for the devil, his
angels, and the unredeemed.
