Our Beliefs

We believe that the Bible is the absolute Word of God.
We believe that God is eternal, all-powerful, all-knowing, and present everywhere at all times
We believe that Jesus Christ offered Himself as a sacrifice for sin, arose bodily from the dead, ascended into Heaven, is now seated at the right hand of God and will soon return to establish His kingdom on this earth.
We believe that the Holy Spirit shares all the attributes of the Godhead. He convicts ones of sin and indwells all that put their faith in Jesus Christ.
We believe that mankind is the direct creation of God and is now in a fallen state due to the disobedience of Adam. All are sinners and stand condemned in the sight of God.
We believe that salvation is only possible through the atoning work of Christ through faith.
We believe that the church is the body of Christ and is composed of all who believe in Jesus Christ.
We believe in a literal seven-year period of great affliction that will be preceded by the Rapture of the church and followed by the triumphant return of Jesus to the earth, a 1,000-year reign, the final judgment, and the new heavens and the new earth.
