statement

We believe...

In one God, eternally existing in three persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

That Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary. He led a
sinless life, took on Himself all our sins, died and rose again, and is seated at the right
hand of the Father as our mediator and advocate.

The Bible to be the infallible Word of God, that it is His holy and inspired Word, and
that it is of supreme and final authority.

In the necessity of the work of the Holy Spirit for the individual's new birth and growth
to maturity, and for the Church's constant renewal in truth, wisdom, faith, holiness,
love, power, and mission. Every believer is called to live and walk in the power, and the
indwelling Holy Spirit so that he will bear fruit to the glory of God and not fulfill the
lusts of the flesh.

That all men everywhere are lost and face the judgment of God, and need to come to a
saving knowledge of Jesus Christ through His shed blood on the cross for the remission
of their sins and are justified by Christ alone.

That we are called to proclaim the Truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in accordance
with the will of the Father and the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

That we should demonstrate love for others, not only toward fellow believers, but also
toward both those who are not believers and those who oppose us. We are to deal with
those who oppose us graciously, gently, patiently, and humbly. God forbids the stirring
up of strife, the taking of revenge, or the threat or the use of violence as a means of
resolving personal conflict or obtaining personal justice. Although God commands us to
abhor sinful actions, we are to love and pray for any person who engages in such sinful
actions.
