We Believe:
- The Bible is the inspired word of God , and it is truth without error. Studying and applying God's Word will
change your life!
2 Timothy 3:16-17 16All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for
teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17so that the man of
God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
- God is one God revealed in three persons- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We call this the Trinity.
1 Thessalonians 1:4-10 4For we know, brothers loved by God, that he
has chosen you, 5because our gospel came to you not simply with words, but also with
power, with the Holy Spirit and with deep conviction. You know how we lived among you for your sake. 6You
became imitators of us and of the Lord; in spite of severe suffering, you welcomed the message with the joy given by the Holy
Spirit. 7And so you became a model to all the believers in Macedonia and Achaia. 8The Lord's message rang out from you not only in Macedonia and Achaia—your faith in
God has become known everywhere. Therefore we do not need to say anything about it, 9for
they themselves report what kind of reception you gave us. They tell how you turned to God from idols to serve the living
and true God, 10and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead—Jesus,
who rescues us from the coming wrath.
- Jesus Christ is the virgin-born Son of God who died for our sins, rose bodily from the grave and is coming again
1 Corinthians 15:1-8 1Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the
gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2By
this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance[a]: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4that he was buried,
that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5and that he appeared
to Peter,[b] and then to the Twelve. 6After that, he appeared to more than five hundred
of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. 7Then
he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, 8and last of all he appeared to me
also, as to one abnormally born.
- Forgiveness of sins and Salvation is by Jesus Christ alone. To receive Him, one must recognize that they are
a sinner, turn from their sin, place their trust in Jesus who died for them, and confess their faith.
John 3:16 16"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and
only Son,[a] that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Romans 10:9 9That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe
in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
- Salvation is maintained by the grace and power of God, not by the self-effort of the Christian. All who are saved
cannot lose their salvation and those who are not saved will suffer eternal punishment.
John 10:28-30 28I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no
one can snatch them out of my hand. 29My Father, who has given them to me, is greater
than all[a]; no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand. 30I and the Father are one."
