We believe in the existence of the one true and living God—the Creator of the entire universe. Though beyond full human comprehension, He has graciously revealed Himself as a Triune God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This divine unity exists in perfect harmony, co-equal and co-eternal, working together in creation, redemption, and the ongoing work of salvation.
The first person of the Trinity—Creator and Sustainer of all things. He is sovereign, infinite, and all-powerful, yet intimately personal and loving. Though His greatness is beyond full human understanding, He desires to be known. And He has made Himself known through His Son, Jesus Christ. It is only through Jesus that we can truly know the Father.
(Genesis 1:1, Isaiah 6:3, Matthew 28:19, 2 Corinthians 13:14, 1 John 5:7, Colossians 1:16, Acts 4:24, Hebrews 1:3, Revelation 4:11, Psalm 145:3, Jeremiah 9:23–24, Matthew 11:27, John 14:6)
The second person of the Trinity—the eternal Son of God. He is God incarnate, fully divine and fully human, born of the virgin Mary and conceived by the Holy Spirit. Jesus lived a perfect, sinless life and willingly became the holy and worthy sacrifice for our sins. Though He was tempted and suffered as we do, He never sinned. He came not to be served, but to serve, and gave His life freely on the cross for the salvation of all. He was betrayed, beaten, crucified, and died—but death did not defeat Him. On the third day, Jesus rose from the grave, conquering sin and death and proving His divine power. After His resurrection, He appeared to many over 40 days before ascending into Heaven. One day, Jesus will return in glory to rule and reign forever, judge the world, and bring His followers into eternal fellowship with God. (John 1:14, 1 Peter 2:22, Matthew 20:28, Luke 24:6, Acts 1:11)

We believe that the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity—God’s presence living within every believer in Jesus Christ.
The Holy Spirit is given to all who place their faith in Jesus, empowering them to live godly lives and fulfill their calling. He teaches, guides, and bears witness to the truth of Christ. He convicts the world of sin, assures believers of their salvation, and sanctifies them to become more like Jesus.
The Holy Spirit equips followers of Christ with spiritual gifts for ministry, empowers prayer, strengthens believers in spiritual battles, and leads them in truth and righteousness.
(John 14:26, Acts 1:8, Romans 8:26, Romans 8:16, Galatians 5:25)
Acts 2:38 | Romans 8:9-11 | John 14:26 | John 15:26 | John 16:7-15 | Acts 1:8 | 1 Thessalonians 1:5 | 1 Peter 1:12 | 1 Corinthians 12:4-11 | Romans 8:26 | Ephesians 2:18 | Matthew 12:28 | Ephesians 6:10-18 | 1 Corinthians 6:11 | 2 Thessalonians 2:13 | Titus 3:4-7 | Romans 8:14 | Galatians 5:16-18 | Romans 8:16 | Ephesians 1:13-14
We believe that the Bible is the divinely inspired Word of God—true, authoritative, inerrant, and all-sufficient in its guidance for life and faith. It is God’s revelation of Himself to humanity—historically accurate, internally consistent, and centered on one redemptive story that points to Jesus Christ. Though written by over 40 human authors across 66 books, every word was divinely inspired by the Holy Spirit. The Bible is not only the standard of truth—it is truth itself. It speaks with timeless relevance and power, guiding our beliefs, shaping our lives, and revealing the heart of God.
It is the foundation of our beliefs and the final authority in all matters of doctrine and conduct. (Numbers 23:19, Psalm 12:6, Proverbs 30:5, John 17:17, 2 Timothy 3:16, 2 Peter 1:21, Hebrews 4:12, 2 Timothy 3:16, 2 Peter 1:21)
We believe that we are the pinnacle of God’s creation, uniquely made in His image and likeness. We were created to reflect His character, live in relationship with Him, and steward His creation.
However, through sin, humanity rebelled against God, resulting in separation from His glory and distortion of our original design. Because of this, every person is in need of redemption and restoration—a return to the likeness and purpose for which we were created.
Only through Jesus Christ can we be restored, renewed, and reconciled to God.
2 Corinthians 5:17 | Genesis 1:27 | Genesis 5:1-2 | Romans 3:23 | Romans 5:12 | 1 Corinthians 15:49 | Colossians 3:10
We believe that salvation is a gift from God that can never be earned through good works or self-improvement. Salvation is only given by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone, the redemption of our sin. Salvation is based on the work of Jesus on the cross where He sacrificially died, bearing the sin and punishment of all mankind, and paying the price required of sin for all those who believe in Him. We believe that one is justified by God when they believe the atoning death of Jesus Christ, repent of their sinful nature and confess their sins before God. We believe the Believer is sanctified by the working of the Holy Spirit in him when he allows the Holy Spirit to dominate his life.
(Romans 6: 6; 5: 8 – 9; 2 Corinthians 7: 1 | Romans 15: 16 | Galatians 5: 16 – 17 | 2 Thessalonians 2: 13 | John 1:12 | John 3:16 | Ephesians 1:7 | Ephesians 2:8-9 | Romans 3:23-25 | Romans 5:6-9 | Romans 6:23)
We believe that salvation comes by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. Baptism is a public declaration of that faith—an outward expression of an inward transformation—before God, the church, and the world.
Following the New Testament example and the meaning of the Greek word baptizo (“to immerse”), we practice baptism by immersion. Jesus Himself modeled this, and through it, we symbolically participate in His death, burial, and resurrection—dying to our old self and rising as a new creation in Christ.
Anyone who has placed their faith in Jesus is encouraged to be baptized at the time of their conversion or shortly thereafter.
(Ephesians 2:8 | Matthew 10:32 | Matthew 3:13-17 | Matthew 28:19 | Romans 6:3-4 | 2 Corinthians 5:17 | Acts 2:38 | Acts 8:12 | Acts 8:36-38 | Acts 10:44-48)
We also believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit for all believers, accompanied by signs and spiritual empowerment. The Holy Spirit equips followers of Christ with diverse spiritual gifts for the building up of the Church and the advancement of God’s Kingdom
These gifts—such as wisdom, knowledge, faith, healing, miracles, prophecy, discernment, tongues, and interpretation—are given according to the Spirit’s will and are active and relevant today.
We affirm the operation of these gifts as described in Scripture and encourage their use in love, humility, and alignment with God’s Word.
(1 Corinthians 12:8–11 | Mark 16:17–18 | Acts 2:4 | Romans 12:6–8)
Man was created for eternal existence. Jesus will return one day and on that day all will be judged. There will be just punishment and reward. For those who are in Christ Jesus there is no condemnation, and they will spend eternity in the presence of God in real places, the new Heaven and the New Earth. Those who reject Jesus will be separated from Him by their sin in a real place of eternal conscious punishment called Hell.
(Matthew 24:44 | John 14:3 | Acts 1:11 | 1 Thessalonians 4:16 | Hebrews 9:28 | Revelation 22:20 | Romans 14:10-12 | Revelation 20:11-15 | Romans 2:5-8 | 2 Corinthians 5:10 | Matthew 25:34 | Romans 8:1 | 2 Peter 3:13 | Matthew 25:41 | Matthew 25:46 | Revelation 14:9-11| John 5: 28 – 29| Daniel 12: 2)
is a sacred ordinance instituted by Jesus Christ. It is a symbolic act of remembrance, thanksgiving, and proclamation of His death, resurrection, and promised return.
Through the bread and the cup, we remember Christ’s body broken and His blood shed for the forgiveness of our sins. Communion is a time of reflection, unity, and renewed commitment to live in the grace and truth of the gospel.
All believers who have placed their faith in Jesus Christ and are baptized are invited to participate in this act of worship.
(Luke 22:19 | 1 Corinthians 11:26)
