Our Beliefs

The Scriptures

We believe the Bible is the inspired, inerrant, and authoritative Word of God (2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21). It is the supreme and final rule for faith and practice, without error in its original manuscripts, and sufficient for all matters of life and godliness.

Creation

We believe the Genesis account of creation. God created everything in six literal days. (Genesis 1 & 2). We reject the theory of evolution.

The Nature of God

We believe in one eternal God, existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14). He is sovereign, holy, loving, and just—the Creator and Sustainer of all things.

Jesus Christ

We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:23), sinless life (Hebrews 4:15), substitutionary atoning death (1 Peter 2:24), bodily resurrection (1 Corinthians 15:4), ascension into heaven (Acts 1:9-11), and His personal, visible return in power and glory.

Salvation by Grace Through Faith

We believe that salvation is a free gift of God’s grace, received through faith alone in Christ alone (Ephesians 2:8-9). All who repent of sin and trust in Jesus are justified, regenerated by the Holy Spirit, and eternally secure in Him (John 10:28-29; Romans 8:38-39).

The Holy Spirit

We believe the Holy Spirit convicts the world of sin, regenerates believers, indwells them at conversion, and empowers them for godly living and service (John 16:8; Titus 3:5; Ephesians 5:18).

The Church

We believe the church is the body of Christ, composed of all true believers (1 Corinthians 12:12-13). The local church is an autonomous body of baptized believers, committed to worship, discipleship, fellowship, and evangelism (Acts 2:41-47).

The Two Church Ordinances

Believer’s Baptism: We practice immersion baptism as an act of obedience for those who have personally trusted Christ (Acts 2:41; Romans 6:3-4). Baptism does not save but symbolizes the believer’s identification with Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection.

The Lord’s Table: We believe the Lord’s Table is observed to remember the Lord’s sacrifice on the cross, His shed blood, and His second coming (I Corinthians 11:23-26).

The Last Things

We believe in the bodily resurrection of the dead, the return of Christ, the final judgment, and the eternal state—heaven for the redeemed and hell for the lost (Revelation 20:11-15; 21:1-4).

Ethical & Practical Positions

Sanctity of Life

We affirm that all human life is sacred, from conception to natural death (Psalm 139:13-16; Jeremiah 1:5). We oppose abortion, euthanasia, and any unjust taking of human life.

Biblical Marriage & Sexuality

We believe marriage is a sacred covenant between one man and one woman (Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:4-6). We uphold sexual purity, affirming that God’s design for intimacy is within marriage alone (1 Corinthians 6:18-20).

Gender Roles in Ministry

We affirm male leadership in pastoral ministry (1 Timothy 2:12; 3:1-7), while recognizing the vital role of women in other areas of service (Titus 2:3-5; Acts 18:26).

Stewardship & Generosity

We believe Christians should honor God with their finances, giving cheerfully and sacrificially (Malachi 3:10; 2 Corinthians 9:7).

Missions & Evangelism

We are committed to the Great Commission, making disciples locally and globally (Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 1:8).

Religious Liberty & Civil Engagement

We support religious freedom for all people while advocating for biblical truth in the public square (Acts 5:29). Christians should be salt and light in society (Matthew 5:13-16).

This is not the sum total of our doctrinal beliefs. Ultimately all of our beliefs are based on the Bible; it is our final authority.

Our Mission

Our mission is to glorify God by proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ with faithfulness and clarity. Grounded in the authority of Scripture, we seek to live in obedience to God’s Word and to reflect His grace through our lives.
