WHAT WE BELIEVE

WE BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT


What We Believe


We Believe there is one God who lives forever in three persons: The Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Matt 28:19; John 14:9-11)

We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God to the world, speaking to us with authority and without error.  (2 Timothy 3:16-17)

We believe in the divinity of Jesus Christ the Son, His virgin birth, His sinless life, his miracles, His death for us on the cross, His resurrection from the dead, his ascension to the Father, His exaltation, and His personal, physical return to rule the earth in power and love.  (John 1:14-18; Acts 1:10-11; I Thessalonians 4:16-18)

We believe that all mankind are lost in sin and need to repent and turn from it and trust personally in the Savior, Jesus Christ.  We all need to be born again by the Holy Spirit’s power into God’s family.  (Ephesians 2:1-10; John 3:5-7)

We believe in the power of the Holy Spirit.  The Holy Spirit lives in us and brings love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, humility and self-control in our lives.  He works in and through us with charismatic and ministry gifts.  We believe all Christians have a spiritual gift or gifts.   (Galatians 5:22-23; I Corinthians 12:7-11;  Ephesians 4:11-12; I Peter 4:10)

We believe in the resurrection of every person; to eternal life for the believer in Jesus Christ and eternal judgment for the lost.  (Matthew 25:31-46)

We believe in the unity for all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ and seek community together.  We want to become more like Him in every way, who is the head of His body, the Church.  We are called to Him and one another and are enabled to do this only as His life flows through us.  (I Corinthians 12:12-13; Matthew 22:37-40)
