What We Believe

We Hold the Faith that is Common to All Believers
(Titus 1:4; Jude 3)

The Bible is the Word of God, written under His inspiration word by word (2 Tim. 3:16), and is the complete and only written divine revelation of God to man (Deut. 4:2; 12:32; Prov. 30:5-6; Rev. 22:18-19).

God is uniquely one (Deut. 6:4; 1 Cor. 8:4b; Isa. 45:5a), yet triune—the Father, the Son, and the Spirit (Matt. 28:19), co-existing (Matt. 3:16-17; 2 Cor. 13:14) and coinhering (John 14:10-11) in three persons, distinct but never separate, from eternity to eternity.

Christ, the only begotten Son of God (John 1:18; 3:16), even God Himself (John 1:1), became a genuine man named Jesus through incarnation (John 1:14), having both the divine and human natures (Rom. 9:5; 1 Tim. 2:5).

Christ died on the cross for our sins, shedding His blood for our redemption (1 Pet. 2:24; Eph. 1:7).

Christ resurrected from among the dead on the third day (1 Cor. 15:3-4; Acts 4:10; Rom. 8:34).

Christ ascended to the right hand of God to be the Lord of all (Acts 1:9; 2:33, 36; 5:31; 10:36).

Salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone (Eph. 2:5, 8) and in His completed work, resulting in our justification before God (Rom. 3:24, 28; Gal. 2:16) and in our being born of God to be His children (John 1:12-13). This makes us living members of the one Body of Christ (Eph. 1:22-23; Rom. 12:5).

Christ is coming again to receive His believers to Himself (1 Thes. 1:10; 2:19; 3:13; 5:23).
