Statement of Faith
We believe that there is one God who has revealed Himself to be three eternal persons whom we confess as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We believe Jesus Christ came to save mankind from condemnation and eternal death. Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, became fully human and by His sacrificial death on the Cross and by His resurrection from the dead, provided the redemption which saves those who come to Him in repentance and faith.
We acknowledge that the Church is God's instrument for mission and evangelization. The local congregation, in its worship, sacraments and fellowship, together with its evangelism and social care, witnesses to the love and justice of God.
We affirm that the Bible, both Old and New Testaments, is the uniquely inspired Word of God and is the only and wholly trustworthy test of faith and conduct.
We confess Jesus Christ to be the only Savior and Lord and we affirm His deity, virgin birth, incarnation, substitutionary death, bodily resurrection, ascension and personal return.
Commitment to this basis of faith does not mean a uniformity of belief that excludes different points of view on areas that are not part of this foundation statement. It is recognized that the Universal Church consists of persons from many denominations and emphases, but all in the true church are there by grace through faith in substitutionary sacrifice of Jesus Christ as payment for their sin.
