What We Believe

There is only one true and living God: an infinite, intelligent Spirit, the Maker and Supreme Ruler of Heaven and Earth. In the unity of the Godhead, there are three persons, the Father, the Eternal Son of God, and the Holy Ghost, equal in every divine perfection and executing (distinctively & harmoniously) in the GREAT work of Redemption.

Man, God’s special creation, was created in God’s own image. Male and female are the crowning Works of His creation.

Salvation is free and offered to all who accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. There is no other means of salvation other than through Jesus Christ

Baptism – immersion of a believer in water in the Name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. is an act of obedience symbolizing the believer’s faith in a crucified, buried, and risen Savior.
  • Signifies the believer’s death to sin, the burial of the old life, and the resurrection to walk in newness of life in Christ Jesus

  • Is a testimony to the believer’s faith in the final resurrection of the dead

  • As a church ordinance, baptism is a prerequisite to the privileges of church membership and to the Lord’s Supper
