We believe the Bible to be the only inspired, trustworthy, true, and applicable, without error, Word of God. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)
We believe there is only one God who eternally exists in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:19, 1st Peter 1:2, and 2nd Corinthians 13:14)
We believe that God created all human beings in His image. Although man has tremendous potential for good, he is marred by an attitude of disobedience toward God called “sin.” This attitude separates man from God. (Genesis 1:27; Psalm 8:3-6; Isaiah 59:1-2, and Romans 3:23)
We believe salvation is a gift from God to man. Man can never make up for his sin by self-improvement or good works – only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God’s offer of forgiveness can man be saved from sin’s penalty. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus Christ into his life by faith. (Romans 6:23; Ephesians 2:8-9; John 14:6, 1:12; John 10:29-30; 2nd Timothy 1:12; Titus 3:5; Galatians 3:26; Romans 5:1; Hebrews 7:25; and Hebrews 10:10-14)
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, who lives within and guides Christians, so we are enabled to live godly lives. (John 14:15-26; John 16:5-16; and Ephesians 1:13-14)
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ, and that all believers are members of His body, the Church. (Philippians 2:1-4)
We believe that human life is sacred from conception to its natural end. Thus, we must honor the physical and spiritual needs of all people; following Christ’s example, of treating every person with love, dignity, and respect. (Genesis 1:27; Psalm 8:3-8; Psalm 139:13; Isaiah 49:1; Jeremiah 1:5; Matthew 22:37-39; Romans 12:20-21; and Galatians 6:10)
We believe God’s design for sexual intimacy is to be expressed only within the context of marriage. God instituted marriage between one man and one woman as the foundation of the family and the basic structure of human society. For this reason, we believe that marriage is exclusively the union of one man and one woman. (Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:5-6; Mark 10:6-9; Romans 1:26-27; and 1st Corinthians 6:9)
