OUR STATEMENT OF FAITH

AS CHRISTIANS WE BELIEVE:

That the Bible is God's true word, and our only source of accurate knowledge about God...

That mankind is sinful by nature and has lost true fellowship with God, and needs spiritual rebirth...

That God loves all people, no matter how sinful, and He wants to give eternal life to all who trust in His Son Jesus Christ...

That salvation, heaven and eternal life are the free gifts of God, won for us by the obedient life, sacrificial death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Son of God...

That God offers forgiveness of all our sins and the gift of His Holy Spirit to all who receive Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior...

That people receive God's salvation when we acknowledge and forsake our sins, believe that Jesus Christ is our true and only Savior, and accept God's forgiveness offered to us...

That living a Christian life means receiving God's grace and the indwelling of His Holy Spirit, by which we are enabled to follow the teachings of Christ and His Apostles...

That our eternal destiny, whether in heaven or hell, is determined by whether or not we truly receive trust in Jesus Christ our Savior. If we are lost, it will be because we rejected what God offers us in Jesus...

That study of God's Word, prayer, worship and fellowship with other Christians in the church are necessary to maintain a close relationship with Jesus Christ...
