What We Believe

• We believe that both Old and New Testaments constitute the divinely inspired word of God, inerrant in the originals.  
• We believe in one God existing eternally in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
• We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, became man without ceasing to be God, in order that He might reveal God and redeem sinful men.  
• We believe that the Holy Spirit came forth from the Father and the Son to convict the world of sin, of righteousness and of judgment; and to regenerate, sanctify, comfort, and seal those who believe in Jesus Christ.  
• We believe that man is totally depraved in that of himself he is utterly unable to remedy his lost condition.
•  We believe that salvation is the gift of God brought to man by grace and received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, whose atoning blood was shed on the cross for the forgiveness of sins.  
• We believe in the water baptism of believers, symbolizing the believer’s union in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.  
• We believe in the observance of the Lord’s Supper commemorating the sacrifice of our Savior for all mankind.  
•  We believe the life of the believer is to be separated from the world by consistent conduct before God and man, and is to be in the world as a life-giving light.  
• We believe in the personal and visible and bodily return of the Lord Jesus Christ.  
• We believe marriage is between a man and a woman and ordained by God.  
• We believe that sexual relations should be between a man and a woman by birth (Romans 1:24-29).  We believe in procreation by a man and woman by birth.

​Romans 1:24-32 
Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.   For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.   And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers,

Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
