Our
Statement of Faith
THE
SCRIPTURES:
We believe that:
- The
Holy Bible was written by divinely inspired men and is the
record of God's revelation of Himself to men, and that
- Both
the Old and New Testaments are inerrant in the original writings
and are the supreme and final authority for faith and life.
THE
GODHEAD:
We believe the Godhead exists in three Persons - Father, Son and
Holy Spirit. These three persons are one God having precisely the
same nature and attributes.
THE
LORD JESUS CHRIST:
We believe in:
- His
eternal existence as God,
- His
incarnation and virgin birth,
- His
death on the cross as the substitutionary atonement for sin,
- His
literal, bodily resurrection from the dead,
- His
present ministry of intercession in heaven, and
- His
bodily, future return to earth.
THE
HOLY SPIRIT:
We believe that:
- The
Holy Spirit, the third person of the Godhead, convicts men of
sin, regenerates, baptizes, indwells, seals, and sets apart
believers unto a holy life,
- He
keeps and empowers believers day by day, and
- He
is the Teacher of the Word of God and the Guide for daily
living.
MANKIND:
We believe that:
- Mankind
was created innocent and pure, and
- Adam
fell through the sin of disobedience, therefore,
- All
men are corrupted in body, soul, spirit, and
- All
men need redemption.
SALVATION:
We believe that:
- Salvation
is by grace, a free gift of God apart from works,
- Salvation
requires repentance, a turning from one's own way to God's way,
- Salvation
is through personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ,
- All
who receive Jesus Christ are regenerated by the Holy Spirit and
become the children of God and
- True
salvation will be manifested by a changed life.
WE
BELIEVE:
We believe in:
- The
visible, bodily return of Jesus Christ to earth,
- The
bodily resurrection of the just to eternal life in the glory of
God's presence, and
- The
bodily resurrection of the unjust to judgment and everlasting
punishment
With
our Biblical counseling, our purposes are:
- To
bring each person into a personal relationship with Jesus
Christ as Lord and Savior
- To
help people develop intimacy with God the Father
- To
provide emotional support
- To
help individuals live as healthy and productive human beings
