WE BELIEVE
God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that whosoever would believe in Him would not perish, but have everlasting life!
We believe that this world, the universe, and life itself are the product of the wisdom, creativity and power of an eternal and personal God.
We believe in that one God.
We believe that, in a wonderful and mysterious way, He, being one, has always existed in Three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe that this glorious God created us (humanity) to enjoy and be in relationship with Him.
We believe that we and this universe are fallen, and that in the very beginning we threw off God’s authority and spurned His love. We sinned against God. As a result this world is fallen. We are fallen.
We believe that our nature and behavior evidence our fallenness. As the Bible declares, “We all like sheep have strayed away. We have left God’s plans to follow our own.”
We believe that God is just and judges sin.
We believe that 2,000 years ago, God sent His Son Jesus into this world, into human history, to be our Savior! We believe that Jesus took our place, underneath the just punishment from God for our sins, that He gave His life on a cross for us, so that we might find life in Him. He was wounded for our transgressions. He was crushed for our sins. He was beaten so that we could be made whole. And by His stripes we are healed.
We believe that Jesus died.
We believe that, three days later, Jesus rose (literally, and bodily) from death, that He rose to conquer the curse of sin and death.
We believe that Jesus ascended into Heaven, and that right now He is Home with His Father.
We believe that one day He is coming back again to ultimately undo the curse of sin.
We believe that everyone needs to be saved, and that (Praise God!) anyone can be saved. We believe that Jesus Christ is the one way, the ultimate truth, and the source of true life. We believe that faith in Him alone is what saves us.
We believe in the person and work of the Holy Spirit. We believe that He lives inside of every Christian – gifting, leading, comforting, and empowering them to live out their calling to follow Jesus.
We believe that the Bible is the true, inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God.
