We believe in:

1. The Triune God
We joyfully affirm one eternal God who exists as three distinct yet fully unified Persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. The Father reigns as Creator and Sustainer, the Son took on flesh as Jesus Christ to accomplish redemption, and the Spirit actively indwells and empowers believers today. Together they share the same divine nature, purpose, and glory (Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14).

2. The Inspired Word of God
We hold the Scriptures, Old and New Testaments, to be God-breathed, entirely trustworthy, and wholly authoritative for faith and life. The Bible communicates God’s character, His saving purposes, and His guidance for everyday living without error in its original writings (2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21; Psalm 19:7-11).

3. Grace and the Finished Work of Christ
Salvation rests on God’s generous grace, richly revealed in Christ’s completed work on the cross and His triumph over the grave. All spiritual blessings flow from this grace, making us accepted in the Beloved and supplying every need for life and godliness (Ephesians 1:7-8; Ephesians 2:4-10; Colossians 2:13-15).

4. The Virgin Birth
Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary, fulfilling prophecy and demonstrating both His full divinity and full humanity. This miraculous birth set Him apart as the sinless Messiah who alone can reconcile humanity to God (Isaiah 7:14; Luke 1:26-35; Galatians 4:4-5).

5. Christ’s Death and Resurrection
Jesus willingly died on the cross as the perfect sacrifice for our sins and rose bodily on the third day. His resurrection confirms His victory over sin and death and guarantees eternal life for all who believe (1 Corinthians 15:3-4; Romans 4:25; 1 Peter 1:3-5).

6. The Second Coming
We anticipate the literal, visible return of Jesus Christ, when He will gather His church, judge the nations, and establish His everlasting kingdom of righteousness and peace. This hope motivates holy living and faithful service (Acts 1:10-11; 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18; Revelation 22:12-13, I John 3:1-3).

7. Salvation by Grace through Faith
Forgiveness and new life come solely through trusting in Christ’s death and resurrection. No human effort can earn salvation; it is God’s gift received by repentant faith, resulting in a restored relationship with Him (John 3:16-18; Romans 10:9-13; Titus 3:4-7).

8. Holiness as God’s Standard for His People
Holiness is essential for every follower of Christ. God calls His people to live set apart, reflecting His character in all areas of life. By the Holy Spirit and the grace found in Christ, believers are empowered to walk in purity, obedience, and spiritual maturity. Holiness marks those who truly belong to God and reveals a life transformed and set apart by Him (Leviticus 19:2; Hebrews 12:14; 1 Peter 1:15-16; 2 Corinthians 7:1).

9. Water Baptism
Following personal faith in Christ, believers publicly identify with His death, burial, and resurrection through water baptism. This act of obedience symbolizes the washing away of the old life and the beginning of a new journey with Jesus (Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 2:38-41; Romans 6:3-4).

10. Baptism in the Holy Spirit
We believe in a distinct experience, subsequent to salvation, in which Jesus pours out the Holy Spirit to empower believers for witness and holy living. Speaking in tongues, as the Spirit gives utterance, serves as a biblical sign of this baptism (Acts 1:8; Acts 2:1-4; Acts 10:44-46).

11. Spiritual Gifts and the Supernatural
The Holy Spirit distributes gifts to the church for building up the body of Christ and extending God’s mission in the world. These gifts—whether prophetic insight, healing, service, or others—operate today as God directs, always in harmony with Scripture and for His glory (1 Corinthians 12:4-11; 1 Peter 4:10-11; Hebrews 2:4).

12. Holy Communion
The Lord’s Supper is a sacred reminder of Christ’s sacrifice. As we partake of the bread and the cup, we remember His body given and His blood shed, proclaim His death until He returns, and celebrate the unity of believers in Him (Luke 22:19-20; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26).

13. Fasting and Prayer
Regular times of fasting and prayer draw us closer to God, cultivate dependence on Him, and invite His intervention in our lives and communities. Jesus modeled and taught these disciplines as vital expressions of faith (Matthew 6:5-18; Acts 13:1-3; Nehemiah 1:4-11).

14. Tithing
We honor God by returning a tenth of our income to support His work through the local church and the broader mission of the gospel. Tithing reflects gratitude, trust, and stewardship of all that He has entrusted to us (Malachi 3:10; Proverbs 3:9-10; 2 Corinthians 9:6-8).

15. Holy Matrimony
We uphold marriage as a lifelong covenant instituted by God between one biological male and one biological female. This sacred union reflects Christ’s love for His church and provides the foundation for family and society (Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:4-6; Ephesians 5:31-33).
