We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God, true and authoritative in all that it teaches.
We believe in one God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—eternally existing in three Persons.
We believe God created all things and made mankind, male and female, in His image and for His glory.
We believe all people are sinners in need of salvation and cannot save themselves.
We believe Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man. He lived a sinless life, died on the cross for sinners, rose bodily from the grave, ascended into heaven, and reigns as Lord.
We believe salvation is by God’s grace alone, received through faith in Jesus Christ, and not earned by human works.
We believe the Holy Spirit gives new life, dwells within believers, produces holiness, and equips God’s people to serve Him.
We believe in one universal Church, composed of all who belong to Christ, expressed through local churches devoted to worship, biblical teaching, fellowship, prayer, and the ordinances of Christ.
We believe Jesus commands His Church to proclaim the gospel and make disciples of all nations.
We believe Christians are called to love God, love their neighbors, pursue holiness, care for others, and live faithfully under the lordship of Jesus Christ.
We believe Jesus Christ will return, the dead will be raised, God will judge the world in righteousness, and His people will dwell with Him forever.
In essentials, unity.
In secondary matters, charity.
In all things, Christ.
Jesus Christ is Lord.
