We believe the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testament Scriptures alone to be verbally inspired by God, inerrant and infallible in its original text. They alone are of supreme and final authority in moral and spiritual teaching.

We believe in one eternal God, existing as one substance in three persons: Father, Son, Spirit; each of whom are coequal and co-eternal, possessing all attributes of deity and personality.

Jesus Christ is God, fully God and fully human, two distinct natures, united in one person, supernaturally conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary, a lineal descent of David.

Jesus lived a sinless life and voluntarily atoned for human sins by dying in our place. He rose bodily from the dead three days later in the same, though glorified, body in which he lived and died.

After his resurrection, Jesus showed himself, alive, to his disciples, until his ascension into heaven, where he sits at the Father’s right hand, mediating between God the Father, and humanity, continually making intercession for His own. Jesus will literally, and bodily, return to earth to finalize God’s plan for humanity.

We believe in ex-nilhilo (creation out of nothing) creation of the world, and that Adam and Eve were the literal progenitors of all people, and though Adam and Eve were created without sin, but were seduced by Satan to disobey God, in which came sin, resulting that all people came under divine condemnation, because all sinned.

We believe that all human life is created by God in His image, including fetuses, the aged, the physically or mentally challenged, and every other stage or condition from conception through natural death. We are therefore called to protect and value all human life

Human nature is corrupted, with a propensity towards sin. As a result, all people are dead in trespasses and sin, and fall short of the glory of God. We have no ability to save ourselves. The state of the unbeliever is eternal separation from God; death, as a just punishment for sin. This reality awaits us all unless one places their faith into the atoning work of Christ on their behalf before corporal death.

Salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. Salvation is not a result of works, in whole or in part, human goodness, or religious ceremony. God imputes His righteousness into everyone who put their faith in Christ, justifying them and giving them the right to become children of God.

We believe the Holy Spirit, convicts men of sin, applies the saving work of Christ to individuals, regenerates, indwells, baptizes, seals them for the day of redemption, and empowers believers day by day.

We believe that marriage is a conjugal, covenantal, and non-incestual union ordained by God, of one adult biologically born male and one adult biologically born female, and historically understood by the Church, to be the most basic societal institution and the exclusive institution appointed by God for sexual intimacy.

We believe primary human identity lies in being made in God’s image and this bestows intrinsic dignity that is worthy of Christian compassion and justice. Sin is the
ultimate problem and Christ’s redemption the ultimate solution. Redeemed people should promote genuine Social Justice within a biblical framework. So-called Critical Social Justice is corrupted by a focus on power and privilege rather than truth as the way to understand human relationships. “Social Justice” corrupted in this way misconstrues justice, grace, and compassion, and ultimately undermines the mission of the church and its gospel. We reject as anti-biblical any interpretation of Social Justice as a metanarrative inspired by the false components of Critical Theory (or Cultural Marxism). This views primary human identity in terms of opposing oppressor/oppressed groups along the axes of race, class, sexuality, gender, etc. granting special knowledge found only in the “lived experience” of the oppressed.
