Our Beliefs

We believe that the only true God is the Triune God; one God made of three distinct and separate persons.

  • The Father, who creates and preserves all things (Hebrews 11:1-3)
  • The Son, who redeems the world by His death and resurrection (John 3:16, Acts 4:12)
  • The Holy Spirit, who brings and keeps people in saving faith in Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 12:3)

We believe that God desires all people to be saved and know the truth.

  • God loves all people and wants them to come to love Him and each other (Ezekiel 33:11; 1 Timothy 2:3-4; 2 Peter 3:9; 1 John 4:16)
  • We are sinful at birth, alienated from God, and must be born again in faith (John 3:1-8; Romans 3:23; Colossians 1:21; Ephesians 2:1-5)

We believe that God so loved people that He sent His only Son Jesus to rescue us from our lost condition.

  • Jesus Christ is both God and man (1 Timothy 2:5-6, Colossians 2:8-9)
  • Jesus gave His life as the perfect sacrifice for our sins, resulting in our forgiveness and acceptance before God the Father (Isaiah 53:5; 2 Corinthians 5:21)
  • Those who believe and are baptized will be saved (Mark 16:16; Romans 10:9-10)

We believe that the Holy Spirit brings us to and keeps us in saving faith through God’s Word, Holy Baptism and the Lord’s Supper.

  • We can not believe in Jesus or come to Him without the assistance of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 12:3)
  • God’s Word is true, powerful and has the ability to change lives (Romans 10:17, 2 Timothy 3:14-16, Hebrews 4:12)
  • Through Baptism the Holy Spirit offers all people new life, and makes us God’s children (John 1:12-13; John 3:1-8; Titus 3:5; Acts 2:38)
  • In Holy Communion God offers believers His body and blood under forms of bread and wine for Christians to eat and drink (1 Corinthians 10:16-17)
  • In Holy Communion God offers believers the forgiveness of sins and increases the depth of their faith (Matthew 26:27-28; John 6:54-58; 1 Corinthians 11:26)

We believe that through the church God equips and empowers believers to serve Him by serving others and sharing the good news about Jesus.

  • God has uniquely gifted each person to do good works which He expects His children to do (Matthew 25:34-40; 1 Peter 4:10; Romans 12:3-21)
  • It is not good for people to live in isolation. God intends for us to share His love with nonbelievers and believers alike through intentional relationships (Genesis 2:18; Galatians 6:9-10)
  • The Christian faith is best lived in close relationship with other people ~ i.e. Life Groups such as cell groups, small groups, Bible study groups, etc. (Proverbs 27:17; Acts 2:42-47; Romans 12:9-13)
  • Our greatest purpose in life is to bring others into a saving relationship with Jesus their Savior. (Matthew 28:19-20; John 20:30-31)

We affirm the tenants of the Christian faith as they are outlined in the three Ecumenical Creeds; the Apostles’ Creed, the Nicene Creed and the Athanasian Creed.
