Statement of Faith

1. The Bible

We believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God and the final authority for faith and life.

“All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness.” — 2 Timothy 3:16 (ESV)
“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” — Psalm 119:105 (ESV)

2. The Triune God

We believe in one true God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

“Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one.” — Deuteronomy 6:4 (ESV)
“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” — Matthew 28:19 (ESV)

3. Jesus Christ

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God, fully divine and fully human, whose life, death, and resurrection provide salvation for all who believe.

“In the beginning was the Word… and the Word was God.” — John 1:1 (ESV)
“But he was pierced for our transgressions… and with his wounds we are healed.” — Isaiah 53:5 (ESV)
“He is not here, for he has risen, as he said.” — Matthew 28:6 (ESV)

4. Humanity and Sin

We believe all people are created in the image of God but are separated from Him because of sin.

“So God created man in his own image.” — Genesis 1:27 (ESV)
“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” — Romans 3:23 (ESV)

5. Salvation through Grace

We believe salvation is a gift of God’s grace, received through faith in Jesus Christ alone.

“For by grace you have been saved through faith… not a result of works.” — Ephesians 2:8–9 (ESV)
“And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” — Acts 4:12 (ESV)

6. The Holy Spirit

We believe the Holy Spirit indwells believers, guiding, teaching, and empowering them to live godly lives.

“But the Helper, the Holy Spirit… will teach you all things.” — John 14:26 (ESV)
“Walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.” — Galatians 5:16 (ESV)

7. Sanctification and Being Set Apart

We believe all believers are called to live holy lives, set apart for God’s purposes and transformed by His truth.

“But as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct.” — 1 Peter 1:15–16 (ESV)
“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind.” — Romans 12:2 (ESV)

8. The Church

We believe the Church is the body of Christ, made up of all believers, called to worship God, grow in faith, and share the Gospel.

“Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it.” — 1 Corinthians 12:27 (ESV)
“Let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works.” — Hebrews 10:24–25 (ESV)

9. Eternal Life

We believe in the resurrection of the dead and eternal life for those who believe in Jesus Christ.

“For God so loved the world… that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” — John 3:16 (ESV)
“And this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ...” — John 17:3 (ESV)
