What We Believe About the Word of God

We Believe In:

1. We believe in one true sovereign God, infinite, eternal, and unchangeable, existing in unity and in the tri-personality of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
2. We believe in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, his virgin birth, his sinless life, his vicarious death, his burial and his resurrection, his ascension to heaven, and his present ministry as high priest and advocate for his people at the right hand of God.
3. We believe in the deity and personality of the Holy Spirit, who indwells every believer, the effective agent both in regeneration and in that holy living which is the necessary evidence of true faith.
4. We believe in the divine inspiration and complete trustworthiness of the entire Bible as the Word of God and its supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct.
5. We believe in the radical depravity of man through Adam's fall and his absolute helplessness to please God apart from the new birth.
6. We believe in the unique and historical death of the Lord Jesus Christ for our sins, a voluntary substitutionary sacrifice, and the justification of the believer by the appropriation of this redemption through faith alone.
7. We believe that God the Father in his sovereignty, and before the foundation of the world, gave to God the Son those whom he had chosen in Christ, for whom Christ died, and to whom he guarantees eternal security.
8. We believe in the one holy, universal church, which is the body of Christ, and to which all true believers belong.
9. We believe in the personal and visible return of the Lord Jesus Christ and the bodily resurrection of the redeemed to be with God eternally, and the bodily resurrection of the unredeemed to judgment and eternal punishment.
