What we believe about God, the Bible, and salvation.

What we believe about God

God is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. He has eternally existed in three personalities: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and are one God.

What we believe about the Bible

The Bible is God's Word to us. It was written by human authors, under the super-natural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. Because it is inspired by God, it is the truth without any mixture of error. Since God's Word is the only completely reliable and truthful authority, we accept the Bible as our manual for living.

What we believe about salvation

Salvation is God's free gift to us, but we must accept it. We can never make up for our sin by self-improvement or good works. Only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God's offer of forgiveness can anyone be saved from sin's penalty.
