Statement of Faith

The Inerrancy of Scripture

We believe that Scripture is the infallible, final authority for all matters of Christian faith and Christian conduct, above all/any culture.

The Godhead

We believe in the Triune God, who exists in three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

The Creation and Fall

We believe God is the Creator of all that is. We believe in the reality of Satan, and the eternal judgment of Satan and his angels. We believe it was man’s freewill decision to depart from the perfection of God’s creation, bringing sin into the world. The Fall created a need for redemption which is ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ who is the ransom for our sin.

The Lord Jesus Christ

We believe in the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His death on the cross, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.

The Holy Spirit

We believe in the Holy Spirit, sent by God, to lead, guide, direct, convict, comfort, and teach God’s children.

Salvation

We believe in the salvation of sinners by grace, through repentance and faith in the perfect and sufficient work of Jesus Christ on the cross by which we obtain remission of sins.

 

 

Marriage

We believe God’s design for marriage is between one man (biologically born male) and one woman (biologically born female) and that sexual intimacy is designed to be expressed exclusively within the context of marriage.

 Sanctity of Life

We believe that all human life is sacred and created by God in His image.  Human life is of inestimable worth in all its dimensions, including pre-born babies, the aged, the physically and mentally challenged, and every other stage or condition from conception through natural death.  We are therefore called to defend, protect, and value all human life.

Israel

We believe that Israel is God’s covenant with Abraham and that Jewish, Arab and Christian believers in Christ should live in unity.
