Our Core Convictions
- There is only one true God who is holy, supreme, eternal, infinite, all-powerful, all-wise, morally perfect, loving, merciful, long-suffering, and faithful to fulfill all His promises. (Psa. 90:2, Isa. 44:6, Rev. 1:8, Psa. 135:5-7, Psa. 139:1-6, Psa. 33:6-11 & 66:1-7, Isa. 6:3, Jn. 3:16, Psa. 89:1-2)

- God is the Creator, Sustainer and Ruler of all creation. (Gen 1, John 1, Col. 1, Heb. 1)
- The Bible is God’s own inerrant and infallible revelation about His character and nature. It describes the loving relationship He desires with His human creation. (2 Tim. 3:15-17, 2 Pet. 1:20-21)
- Humans are the special creation of God, made in His own image, giving them immeasurable worth. (Gen. 1:27, James 3:9)
- We willfully sin against God, which separates us from a relationship with Him. (Gen. 3, Rom. 3:23, 5:12, Eph. 2:1-5, 1 John 1:8-10)
- Jesus, God the Son, is God’s revelation of Himself to His human creation. Jesus was fully divine and fully human, born of the Virgin Mary. Jesus lived a sinless human life. (John 1, Col. 1:15-17, Heb. 1:1-3, Matt. 1:23, 2 Cor. 5:21)

- Believers in Jesus Christ are spiritually born again, indwelled, and regenerated by the power of the Holy Spirit. (Acts 2:38, Eph. 1:13, 2 Cor. 5:17, Titus 3:5)
- God’s Church is made up of believers in the Lordship of Jesus Christ. It exists to draw people to God, help them to develop a Christian lifestyle and deploy them to serve others. (Rom.12:4-8, 1 Cor. 12, Heb. 10:24-25)
- Jesus Christ will return in wondrous visible glory to judge each person. People who accept His gift of forgiveness and follow His teachings will be rewarded and live forever with Him in the joy of Heaven.
