God
We believe that there is one God who exists in three persons, the trinty, that is made up
of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Jesus
We believe that Jesus is the Son of God, was born of a virgin, was wholly God and wholly
man, lived a sinless life, and died in our place as a sacrifice for all the sins of mankind, was
buried, arose from the grave, and ascended into Heaven.

Holy Spirit
We believe that God the Holy Spirit is active in convincing unbelievers of their need
for salvation, and is the Comforter and Guide Who lives in every believer.

Bible
We believe that the Bible is the inerrant Word of God , the handbook and sole authority for
a spiritual life of faith.

Man
We believe that man is made in God’s image, but that through the disobedience of the first
man and woman, Adam and Eve, mankind fell from grace, causing all men to become sinners and
in need of salvation.

Salvation
We believe that salvation is a free gift received through repentance of sin, the breaking of God’s
laws, and comes through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

Baptism
We believe that baptism is an act of obedience to the command of Christ and is by immersion
in water after salvation.

Prayer
We believe that through prayer every believer has direct access to God through the Lord Jesus Christ.

Church
We believe that the church is a local body of baptized believers with the Lord Jesus Christ
as the Head.

Eternity
We believe that those persons who die with their sins forgiven through Christ spend eternity in Heaven while those persons who die in their sins without Christ spend eternity in Hell

Assurance
We believe that every person who is truly saved is eternally secure in the Lord Jesus Christ.

Christ’s Return
We believe that Jesus Christ will literally return to earth.

Government
We believe in the separation of church and state, but not in separation of God and government.
Christians are to be salt and light in society.
