OUR BELIEFS
THE ONENESS OF GOD
We believe there is one God, and His name is Jesus. He has revealed Himself as the Father in creation, the Son in redemption, and the Holy Ghost in regeneration. All the fullness of the Godhead dwells bodily in Jesus Christ.

SIN AND SALVATION
All have sinned and come short of the glory of God and are in need of salvation. Salvation comes only through faith in the atoning blood of Jesus Christ, expressed in obedience to the Gospel.
-
We obey the Gospel by:
-
Repenting of our sins (death to sin).
-
Being baptized in water in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins (burial).
-
Receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost, with the initial evidence of speaking in other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance (resurrection life).

THE BIBLE
We believe the Bible is the inspired and infallible Word of God. It is our final authority in all matters of faith, doctrine, and life. Through its teachings, we find direction, correction, and the revelation of God’s will.

Scripture References: 2 Timothy 3:15–17; 2 Peter 1:20–21; John 17:17
THE GOSPEL
The Gospel is the good news that Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and rose again on the third day. We apply the Gospel to our lives through repentance, baptism in Jesus’ name, and receiving the Holy Ghost. This is the same pattern experienced by the early church in the Book of Acts.
