Statement of Beliefs

1. We believe the Holy Scripture, composed of Old and New testament, are fully inspired by God, infallible and inerrant in the original writings and completely trustworthy in all areas in which they speak, the supreme and final authority of faith and practice. We believe that no single translation is perfect, for all were translated by fallible Human Beings.

2. We believe in the Jewish Sh'ma that teaches there is only one God, "Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one." Deuteronomy. 6:4.

3. We believe the Bible clearly teaches that God is made up of three persons; The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit.

4. We believe Jesus Christ was born of a virgin by a supernatural act of the Holy Spirit, is fully God and fully man. We believe Jesus is the promised Messiah.

5. We believe Jesus came to earth to pay the penalty for our sins. We believe that His death on the cross was full payment for our sins, and that nothing else is necessary.

6. We believe that on the third day after Jesus was crucified, He physically rose from the dead and now sits at the right hand of the Father.

7. We believe God created man in the image and likeness of God, not as robots who are forced to love Him, but with freedom to choose how we will live our own life.

8. We believe men are sinners from birth, are separated from God, and deserve eternity in hell.

9. We believe that there is nothing man can do to earn his salvation. That salvation is a free gift from God, bought by the shed blood of Jesus when He was crucified.

10. We believe each individual must personally decide for themselves if they will--through faith--accept God's gift of salvation and turn away from their sins.

11. We believe that Jesus will one day return to judge the world and deliver His people.
