OUR STATEMENT OF BELIEF:
We believe that the Bible is the Holy Word of God. We believe that the Word of God supersedes any man-made law that contradicts the Holy Scriptures. We believe in one God, who exists in three persons: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. We believe that God created the universe and everything in it. We believe that Jesus Christ is the promised Messiah, born without sin, and that He was crucified for our sins, was buried, rose again, and ascended to heaven. We believe that heaven is the final, eternal home for all who believe in Jesus Christ and accept His sacrifice on the cross. |
