- We believe in one God, eternally existing in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, equal in essence, power and glory. God is infinite in His knowledge and power, perfect in His character and ways, and is the Creator of and sovereign Lord over all things.
- We believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are verbally inspired by God and without error in the original writings and that they are the supreme and final authority for faith and life.
- We believe that Adam and Eve were created in the image and likeness of God. However, they sinned, and thereby incurred not only physical death, but also spiritual death, which is separation from God. As a consequence, this spiritual death has been transmitted to the entire human race so that all human beings are born with a sinful nature, become sinners in thought, word, and deed, and are therefore rightly deserving eternal punishment.
- We believe that Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary, and is therefore fully God and fully man.
- We believe that, out of His great love for guilty and lost human beings, God sent His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ to die for the sins of mankind as a representative and substitutionary sacrifice. Jesus was buried, and He rose from the dead three days later.
- We believe that through His death and resurrection, Jesus bore the penalty of sin, appeased God’s wrath, broke the power of sin and death, defeated Satan and secured eternal life for His people.
- We believe in the bodily resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, His ascension into heaven, His enthronement as Lord of heaven and earth, and His present ministry there as High Priest and Advocate for all who believe in Him as Savior and Lord.
- We believe that all who repent of their sin and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ are justified by grace, apart from any of their works. Furthermore, all who receive the Lord Jesus by faith are born again of the Holy Spirit, and thereby become children of God.
- We believe in the reality and personality of Satan and evil spirits who wage war against all people, especially the people of God, by spiritual and physical means in a constant effort to prevent or hinder the establishment of Christ’s kingdom in the hearts of all people.
- We believe that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will personally return and set up His earthly Kingdom through which He will rule the world in righteousness and finally bring peace to the world.
- We believe in the bodily resurrection of all people, eternal blessedness for the saved in heaven, and eternal misery and damnation in hell for the lost.
- We believe that, since Pentecost, the Lord Jesus Christ has been building His Church – His spiritual body – by joining to it all who have been born again of the Holy Spirit. He has commissioned and enabled the Church to make disciples in all parts of the earth and teach them His word.
