VISION STATEMENT

We believe that there is only one true, living, and eternal God and that the Godhead is revealed as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

We believe that God created man in His own image to bring Him honor through obedience, and when man disobeyed, he became a fallen and sinful creature, unable to save himself. We believe that infants are in the covenant of God’s grace and that all persons become accountable to God when they reach a state of moral responsibility. 

We believe that salvation (regeneration, sanctification, justification, and redemption) has been provided for all mankind through the redemptive work (life, death, resurrection, ascension, and intercession) of Jesus Christ, and that this salvation can be received only through repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ. 

We believe the Holy Spirit is a teacher. He shows us truth and helps us understand why we should obey it and how to implement it in our lives. He enables us to discern the truth from falsehood and teaches us the ways of God. He teaches truth to God’s people as they seek to study and apply God’s word to their lives. 

We believe that the Holy Scriptures are the Old and New Testaments, the inspired and infallible Word of God, and therein is found the ONLY reliable guide of the Christian faith and conduct. 

We believe that the Church Universal is the Body of Christ, the fellowship of all believers, and that its members have been called out from the world to come under dominion and authority of Christ, its head. We believe that the local church is a fellowship of Christians, a part of the Body of Christ, voluntarily banded together for worship, nurture, and service.
