God is...
There is one God, Creator and Lord of the universe, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Genesis 1:1; Mark 12:29; John 10:30; 2 Corinthians 13:14
The Bible is...
The Bible, both Old and New Testaments, is God's authoritative, inspired Word, without error in all its teachings, including creation, history, its own origins and salvation. It is the supreme and final authority in all matters of belief and conduct. Matthew 5:18; John 17:17; 2 Timothy 3:16–17; 2 Peter 1:19–21; Revelation 22:18–19
Jesus is...
Jesus Christ, God's Son was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, lived a
sinless life, died a substitutionary, atoning death on the Cross, rose bodily from the dead, and ascended to heaven, where as truly God and truly man, He is the only mediator between God and man. Matthew 1:18–25; Mark 14:61–62; Luke 3:22; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Philippians 2:5–11; Colossians 2:9
We believe…
That Jesus Christ will personally and visibly return in glory to raise the dead and bring salvation and judgment to completion. God will fully manifest His Kingdom when He establishes a new heaven and new earth, in which He will be glorified forever and exclude all evil, suffering, and death. (John 14:2–3; Romans 14:10–12; 1 Corinthians 15:51–54; 2 Corinthians 5:10; 1 Thessalonians 4:15–17; Revelation 20:11–15, 22:12–17)
We are...
All people are lost sinners and cannot see the Kingdom of God, except through the new birth, which takes place through repentance of sin and faith toward God. Justification is by grace through faith in Christ alone. John 1:11–13, 3:16, 5:24, Romans 3:23–26, 6:23; Ephesians 2:8–10; Titus 3:5; Hebrews 7:24–25; 1 John 5:11–13
