Statement of Faith
1. The Bible is the inspired and infallible word of God and constitutes completed and final revelation. The Bible, in its original autographs, is without error in whole or in part, including theological concepts as well as geographical, historical, and scientific details.
2. God has existed from all eternity in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ was God come in human flesh being fully God and fully man, yet without sin.
3. All men are in violation of God's righteous requirements and His holy character both by nature and by act, and are therefore under His wrath and just condemnation. The central purpose of the coming of Jesus Christ was to pay the penalty for man's sin through His substitutionary death on the cross, the successful accomplishment of which was attested to by His subsequent visible, bodily resurrection.
4. Salvation is offered as a free gift to the sinner. This gift must be responded to individually by faith, believing in God's Word, not trusting in any personal good works whatsoever, but trusting only in the atoning sacrificial death of Jesus Christ.
