What We Believe. |
The Trinity: Father, Son, Holy Spirit
- God the Father is the Creator of the universe. He created man in His own image for fellowship, and called man back to Himself through Christ after the rebellion and fall of man.
- Jesus Christ is eternally God. He was together with the Father and the Holy Spirit from the beginning, and through Him all things were made. He left Heaven and became incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the Virgin Mary; henceforth, He is forever one Christ with two natures–God and man–in one Person.
- The Holy Spirit is God, the Lord, and giver of life, who was active in the Old Testament, and given to the Church in fullness at Pentecost. He empowers the saints for service and witness, cleanses man from the old nature, and conforms us to the image of Christ.
- The Trinity is God, the Father; Jesus, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are three in One.
The Bible
- The Bible containing the Old and New Testament is alone the only infallible, inspired Word of God, and that its authority is ultimate, final, and eternal. It cannot be added to, subtracted from, or superseded in any regard. The Bible is the source of all doctrine, instruction, correction, and reproof. It contains all that is needed for guidance in godliness and practical Christian conduct.
Baptism
- In the ordinances of Baptism and the Lord’s Supper. Baptism is the outward sign of what God has already done in the individual’s life and is a public testimony that the person now belongs to Christ. It is identifying with the death and resurrection of Jesus and is done in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Lord’s Supper is a commemoration of the death of the Lord and is done in remembrance of Him until He comes again; it is a sign of our participation in Him.
- The baptism in the Holy Spirit with evidence of speaking in tongues, subsequent to conversion, releases the fullness of the Spirit, and is evidenced by the fruits and gifts of the Holy Spirit.
Salvation
- That salvation is a free gift of God, based on the merits of the death of His Son, and is appropriated by faith. Salvation is affected by person repentance, belief in the Lord Jesus (justification), and personal acceptance of Him into one’s life as Lord and Savior (regeneration).
DO YOU KNOW JESUS?
The Bible says that we are not perfect and we all have sinned; and that we cannot go to heaven unless we are born again
"For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God."(Romans 3:23) “There is no one righteous, not even one."(Romans 10:23) "Jesus replied, "Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again."(John 3:5)
But God sent His son Jesus, into this world. "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."(John 3:16) Jesus is perfect and without sin. Jesus went to the cross willingly to die a brutal death; "Who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and has become higher than the heavens;" (Hebrews 7: 26) taking the sins of everyone in this world so we could be forgiven. Three days later He rose from the dead. Jesus ascended into heaven and sent us the Holy Spirit "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you."(John 14:26)
If you were to die today, do you know for sure if you would go to Heaven?
If you arrived in Heaven and God asked you, "Why should I let you in?" - what would you say?
Do you know Jesus Christ as your personal Savior?
If you are uncertain about the answers to any of these questions, the gift of salvation is offered to anybody
To accept Jesus into your heart you have to ask Him in. There are no magical words to be said, but if you understand that you're a sinner and in need of Gods forgiveness, here is a prayer of salvation:
Dear Jesus, I know that I am a sinner. I know that I deserve the consequences of my sin. I believe that You died on the cross and rose on the third day. Please come into my heart and change my life. Thank you Lord, for saving me and forgiving me! Amen!"

HOW TO KEEP A RIGHT RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD
Although we have Jesus in our heart, it is something we must fight for; it is not something that comes natural. Here are a few tips of how to keep a right relationship with God.
Go To Church
Church is the place where your spiritualty can grow.
Hangout With Other Christians
It is important to fellowship with other believers. The people you keep company with will greatly influence your Christian life.
Read Your Bible and Pray
Having a personal relationship with God is the most important part of Christianity. What makes Christianity different than all other religions is that we have the ability to communicate with God. The fact that we have the opportunity to communicate with a God that is so powerful and mighty, is not something that we should take lightly.
Witness
The way you were before you got saved and the way God has changed you is not something to stay quiet about. Tell people! Share the good news of the Gospel.
