“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life."

 STATEMENT OF FAITH

ARTICLE ONE:

We believe the Bible is the inerrant, inspired Word of the Living God. The Bible is the final authority on all matters of life, faith, and practice.

ARTICLE TWO:

We believe in the Trinitarian God of the Bible, one in substance, and three in persons, consisting of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.

ARTICLE THREE

We believe that the Son of God, the second person of the Godhead, took upon Himself the form of man, becoming the God-man, with two distinct natures, and by His atoning work through His death, burial and resurrection has made salvation possible for man by His free grace.

ARTICLE FOUR:

We believe that salvation is an act of God's saving grace by the work of the Holy Spirit in regenerating and converting the hearts of men by His free gift of saving faith.

ARTICLE FIVE:

We believe in the personal return of Jesus Christ, in eternal damnation in a literal hell for the wicked, and in everlasting life, in heaven, with the living God for the righteous.

ARTICLE SIX:

We believe that there is but one Head of the church, the Lord Jesus Christ. It is the

responsibility of the church and its institutions to maintain His Lordship over their activities, and not to submit that right to any individual, corporate body, governmental agency or head of state, as long as we conduct ourselves as ambassadors of Christ and

live as lawful citizens

ARTICLE SEVEN:

We believe that every area of life is to be subject to the Lordship of Jesus Christ. We adhere to a world and life view which seeks to make the Lord Jesus Christ preeminent in all things.
