God is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. We believe that God is eternal and that He revealed Himself as one God existing in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Genesis 1:1,26-27; 3:22 | Psalm 90:2 | Matthew 28:19 | John 1:1 | I Peter 1:2 | II Corinthians 13:14
Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all men by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to Heaven’s glory and will return to earth again to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
Matthew 1:22-23 | Isaiah 9:6 | John 1:1-5, 14:10-30 | Hebrews 4:14-15 | I Corinthians 15:3-4 | Romans 1 :3-4 | Acts 1 :9-11 | I Timothy 6:14-15 | Titus 2:13
The Holy Spirit is equal with the Father and the Son as God. He is present in the world to make men aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. The Christian seeks to live under His direction daily.
II Corinthians 3:17 | John 16:7-13, 14:16-17 | Acts 1:8 | I Corinthians 2:12, 3:16 | Ephesians 1:13, 5:18 | Galatians 5:25
Salvation is a gift from God to man. Man can never make up for his sin by self-improvement or good works. Only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God’s offer of forgiveness can Man be saved from sin’s penalty. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus Christ into his life by faith.
Romans 6:23, 5:1 | Ephesians 2:8-9 | John 14:6, 1:12 | Titus 3:5 | Galatians 3:26

A man with glasses and a beard, wearing a teal shirt, stands with arms raised in front of a microphone on stage, leading a congregation in worship. The audience is raising their hands. A large screen behind displays the words "You deserve it" twice. Colorful balloons are on the right side of the stage.

Man is made in the spiritual image of God, to be like Him in character. He is the supreme object of God’s creation. Although man has tremendous potential for good, he is marred by an attitude and posture of disobedience toward God called “sin.” This attitude separates man from God.
Genesis 1:27 | Psalm 8:3-6 | Isaiah 53:6a, 59:1-2 | Romans 3:23
Man was created to exist forever. He will either live eternally separated from God by sin, or in union with God, through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God is Hell. To be eternally in union with Him is eternal life. Heaven and Hell are places of eternal existence.
John3:16 | I John 2:25, 5:11-13 | Romans 6:23 | Revelation 20:15
God gives man eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ, and because of this, the believer is secure in that salvation for eternity. Salvation is maintained by the grace and power of God, not by the self-effort of the Christian. It is the grace and keeping power of God that gives this security.
John 10:29 | II Timothy 1:12 | Hebrews 7:25, 10:10-14 | I Peter 1:3-5
The Bible is God’s Word to all men. Human authors wrote it under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. It was inspired by God, and thus, it is truth without any mixture of error.
II Timothy 3:16-17, 1:13 | 2 Peter 1:20-21 | Psalm 119:105,160, 12:6 | Proverbs 30:5
