We Believe in Jesus Christ…
…God’s one and only Son, my one and only Savior …
(John 1:14, 3:16; 1 John 4:9; 2 Peter 3:18)
… Who was born Jesus of Nazareth, both fully human and fully divine, conceived of the Holy Spirit and the virgin Mary.
(Matthew 1:18, 21:11; Luke 1:26-38, John 1:14, 19:19; Romans 5:15-17; Colossians 2:9; 1 John 1: 1)
… Who suffered and was crucified
(Luke 23:1-46)
… Who died and was buried, and Who rose again bodily from the dead on the third day (Luke 23:44-24:8; John 20:24-29; 1 Corinthians 15:3-8)
… Who ascended into Heaven and now sits at the right hand of the Father (Luke 22:69; Acts 1:1-9; Colossians 3:1),
and
… Who will return to earth to judge both the living and the dead (Matthew 24:36-42; John 14:1-3; Acts 1:10-11, 10:39-42; 1 Peter 4:5)
…God’s one and only Son, my one and only Savior …
(John 1:14, 3:16; 1 John 4:9; 2 Peter 3:18)

(John 16:5-15; Acts 1:7-8; Romans 8:26-27)
… Who indwells every Christian
(1 Corinthians 3:16,6:19; 2 Timothy 1:14)

We believe in the Bible…
– God’s Holy Word, Scripture. We believe God inspired the autographs (original writings) of the Scripture and those autographs were consequently without error.
(Mark 12:36; John 14:26, 16:12-15; Acts 1:16; 1 Corinthians 2:12-13; 2 Timothy 3:14-16; 2 Peter 1:20-21)
– We accept the Bible as the final authority for all matters of faith and practice.
(Isaiah 40:8; Matthew 5:18,24:35; Romans 15:4; Hebrews 4:12)
We believe the Bible teaches that man, created by God, willfully sinned against God and is consequently lost and without hope apart from Jesus Christ (Acts 4:12; Romans 3:23)
We believe the Bible teaches that salvation – the forgiveness of sins – is only obtained by grace through the shed blood of Jesus Christ (Matthew 26:28; Romans 5:9; Ephesians 2:8-9; 1 Peter 1:18-1 9; 1 John 1:7)
We believe the Bible teaches that one receives God’s grace as a free gift (Ephesians 2:8-9) by putting faith in Christ (Mark 16:16; John 3:16; Romans 5:1-2), repenting of sin (Acts 2:38,3:19,17:30; 2 Peter 3:9), confessing Christ (Romans 10:9-10, Matthew 10:32-33), and being immersed into Christ (Acts 2:38, Matthew 3:15,1 Peter 3:21, Romans 6:1-7), but that none of these is sufficient in and of itself for the assurance of salvation.
We believe in the Church of Jesus Christ, founded on the Day of Pentecost and consisting of all Christians everywhere (Matthew 16:13-18; Acts 2:14-47)
We believe the Bible teaches that the Elders are to exercise authority over the local congregation (Acts 20:28; Philippians 1:1; 1 Timothy 3:1-7; Titus 1:5-9; 1 Peter 5:1-4)
