We Believe

...in one God who is revealed to us as Father God, the Son Jesus Christ, and through the ministering presence of the Holy Spirit

...that the Bible is God’s Book of Hope that  brings to light the road to eternal salvation, describes the purpose for our existence, and teaches the precepts for living a fulfilled life that pleases God.
 
...that all people are born with a desire to serve their own self-interest and are separated from God by choosing to ignore His good plan for our lives.

...that remaining separated from God will ultimately result in permanent separation from His presence at the time of our physical death.

...that God sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to live among us and to sacrifice His life in order to provide forgiveness for the selfishness and rebellion of the entire human race.

...that Jesus was resurrected from the dead so that we might have hope for an eternal life in the presence of God in heaven.

...that those people that turn away from their selfishness and rebellion and set their heart upon the hope that the actions of Jesus Christ can fully connect them to God, will indeed be changed from the inside out and be forgiven for their selfishness and rebellion against God.

...that all forgiven people can be led and empowered by the presence of God’s Holy Spirit to live a life that fulfills His plan and purpose for our lives.

...that Jesus Christ will return and the dead will be resurrected to a final judgement.
