What We Believe

​

ABOUT GOD

There is one, and only one, God. He is the Creator, Redeemer, Preserver, and Ruler of the universe. He has eternally existed in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and co-eternal.

 

ABOUT JESUS CHRIST

In His incarnation, Jesus lived a sinless human life, perfectly revealed and did the will of God, and gave Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all people. He arose from the dead, ascended to Heaven's glory, and will visibly return again.

 

ABOUT THE HOLY SPIRIT

The Holy Spirit makes people aware of their need for Jesus Christ, comforts, reveals spiritual truth, and guides in doing what is right. He gives every believer spiritual gifts by which he or she may serve God.

 

ABOUT THE BIBLE

The Bible is God's Word to us. It was written by human authors under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the record of God's revelation of Himself to us. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. Because it is inspired by God, it is truth without any mixture of error.

 

ABOUT HUMAN BEINGS

Men and women are made in the image of God in order to be in personal relationship with Him. However, all of us are marred by an attitude of disobedience toward God called "sin". This attitude separates people from God and causes every problem in life.

 

ABOUT SALVATION

Salvation is God's free gift to us. We can never make up for our sin by self-improvement or good works. Only when we turn from our self-ruled life and turn to Jesus in faith can we be saved from sin's penalty.

 

ABOUT LAST THINGS

God, in His own time and in His own way, will bring the world to its appropriate end. Jesus Christ will return personally and visibly in glory; the dead will be raised; and Christ will judge all people.
