What We Believe
The Bible
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God, our only guide for faith and practice. We seek to follow the New Testament pattern for the church in all we do.
Jesus Christ
We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God, fully divine and fully human. Through His death, burial, and resurrection, He provides salvation to all who believe and obey.
The Church
We believe the church is the body of Christ, made up of all those who have been saved by His grace. We gather each Lord's Day to worship in spirit and truth.
Worship
We worship through:
Singing - A cappella, from the heart (Ephesians 5:19)
Prayer - Individual and congregational (1 Thessalonians 5:17)
Lord's Supper - Every Sunday (Acts 20:7)
Giving - Cheerfully and generously (2 Corinthians 9:7)
Preaching - Teaching God's Word (2 Timothy 4:2)
Salvation
We believe salvation comes through faith in Jesus Christ, demonstrated by repentance, confession, and baptism for the forgiveness of sins.
The Path to Salvation as given by the Scriptures:
HEAR THE GOOD NEWS...
For faith comes by hearing the Word of God - Romans 10:17
For this reason, Jesus sent His apostles and preachers - **Acts 10:42-43**
BELIEVE (TRUST) IN JESUS...
As the Son of God whom the Father sent because He loved us - **John 3:16**
As the propitiation (atoning sacrifice) offered by God for sins - **1John 4:9-10**
Whose blood provides redemption, the forgiveness of sins - **Ephesians 1:7**
REPENT OF SINS...
For Jesus is coming to judge the world - **Acts 17:30-31**
For we must turn from darkness to light, from the power of Satan to God - **Acts 26:18**
Otherwise, we will perish! - **Luke 13:3**
CONFESS JESUS AS LORD...
If we want Jesus to confess us before His Father in heaven - **Matthew 10:32-33**
If we want to receive the salvation that Jesus offers - **Romans 10:9-10**
BE BAPTIZED INTO CHRIST...
To be saved - **Mark 16:15-16**
To receive the remission of sins and gift of the Holy Spirit - **Acts 2:38**
To be raised with Christ from death to newness of life - **Romans 6:3-7**
REMAIN FAITHFUL TO JESUS...
To learn from Him as His disciples - **Matthew 28:19-20**
To imitate Him as our Mentor - **Luke 6:40**
To remain faithful to Him even to the point of death - **Revelation 2:10**
