Statement of Faith

We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

We believe the Bible to be the inspired, inerrant, authoritative Word of God.

We believe in the deity and humanity of Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, in His present rule as Head of the Church and in His personal return in power and glory.

We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful men regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.

We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.

We believe that all those who die in God’s grace through faith are assured eternal salvation; those who die in a state of sin and unbelief suffer the consequence of hell.

We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ, with equality across racial, sex and class differences.

We believe God immutably creates each person as male or female. These two distinct, complementary sexes together reflect the image and nature of God, and rejecting one’s biological sex rejects the created image of God.

We believe God designed marriage as a unique conjugal relationship joining one man and one woman in a single, exclusive, life-long union. God intends sexual intimacy to only occur between a man and a woman joined in marriage.

We believe all forms of sexual immorality, defined in Scripture as outside the marriage covenant, are sinful and offensive to God.

We believe that the family is God’s first institution, that it is the primary means of expanding His Church, and that parents are given a divine mandate to love, nurture, and raise their children to know Jesus to the best of their ability.

We believe God endows all human life with inherent dignity at every stage of development and it must be respected and protected from conception to natural death. Thus, the unjustified, intentional taking of human life before or after birth is sinful and offensive to God.

We believe that this world is fallen, that we see the consequences of sin all around us, and that Christians are called to engage publicly and to joyously point the world back toward God’s design for our good through biblical living, evangelism, and action toward cultural transformation.

We believe that our hope is in Christ alone and that our political activity is an outflow of our love for Him and for our neighbor.

We believe that God’s eternal plan is good, that He wins and has won, and that hope is a defining characteristic of the Christian.
