We believe in one God, creator and sustainer of all things, infinitely perfect and eternally coexisting in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Deuteronomy 6:4, Matthew 3:16-17, John 15:26, 2 Corinthians 13:14, Hebrews 1:2-3)
We believe the Scriptures, both Old and New Testaments, to be the inspired Word of God and the complete revelations of his will for the salvation of mankind, and the divine and final authority for all faith, life, and practice. (Deuteronomy 8:3, Psalm 119, Isaiah 40:8, Acts 20:32, Ephesians 1:13, 2 Timothy 3:16, 2 Peter 1:19-21)
We believe that the Holy Spirit is the agent of regeneration and renewal for believers in Jesus Christ and that he makes the presence of Jesus Christ real in believers and enables them to live in a manner that honors God. (John 7:37-39, John 14:16-18, Romans 8:11-16, Ephesians 3:16-19, Titus 3:4-7)
We believe that the shed blood and substitutionary death of Jesus Christ and his physical resurrection provide the only ground for justification, forgiveness, salvation, and sanctification for all who believe in Christ alone. Everyone who is born of the Holy Spirit by faith alone through grace alone becomes a child of God. (John 1:12-13, Romans 3:21-23, 1 Corinthians 15:1-7, 2 Corinthians 5:21, Galatians 2:16)
We believe that all events, both good and bad, are controlled by the sovereign God who administers all things for His intended pleasure, which displays his ever-present desire for the good for his people. (1 Chronicles 29:11-12, Psalm 24:1, Psalm 47:7, Psalm 135:6, Isaiah 46:10, Daniel 4:35, Romans 8:28-30)
