Our Statement of Faith
We believe the Bible is the inspired word of God, a revelation from God to man, the
infallible rule of faith and conduct, and is superior to conscience and reason,
but not contrary to reason.
(2 Tim 3:15-17)
The Triune Godhead
Comprised of 3 separate and distinct personalities, The Father,
The Son and The Holy Spirit
(Mat 3:16-17)
Man, His Fall, and Redemption
Man was created good and upright in the image and
likeness of God. But man by voluntary transgression fell and man's only hope
is Jesus Christ.
(Rom 3:23)
The Salvation of Man
Man's only hope of redemption is through faith in the blood
and atoning work of Christ.
(Acts 4:12)
Total Prosperity Comes With Salvation
Spiritual (Jn 3:3-11),
Mental (2 Tim 1:7),
Physical (1 Pet 2:24),
Social (Proverbs 3:4),
Material & Financial (Deut 28:1-14).
Our Purpose - is to "Make disciples of all nations", by providing:
- A place for Worship: 'Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only'
(Mat 4:10)
- A place for Fellowship: 'Under his direction, the whole body is fitted together
perfectly, and each part in its own special way helps the other parts, so that the whole body is
healthy and growing and full of love.'
(Eph 4:16).
- Training for Discipleship: 'Go ye therefore and make disciples of all nations.'
(Mat 28:19)
- A Place to Serve: 'Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve
others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms.'
(1 Peter 4:10)
- Training for Outreach: 'We are ambassadors for Christ'.
(2 Cor 5:20)
