About God!
God is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. There is one true and living God. He has eternally existed in three personalities: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are coequal and are one God.
Gen. 1, 1:26,27, Gen.3:22, Psalm 90:2, Matt 28:19, 1 Peter 1:2, 2 Cor. 13:14About the Holy Spirit!
The Holy Spirit is coequal with the Father and the Son of God. He is present in the world to make men aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. The Christian seeks daily to live under His control. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. He gives every believer gifts to be used in ministry to other Christians and the world.

About Human Beings!
Mankind is made in the spiritual image of God to be like Him in character. He is the supreme object of God's creation. Although man has tremendous potential for life, he is marred by a fallen nature which produces disobedience toward God called sins. This fallen nature seperates man from God.
Gen1:27; Psalm 8:3-6; Isaiah 53: 6a; Romans 3:23; Isaiah 59: 1,2 About the Bible!
The Bible is God's Word to all mankind. It is written by human authors, under supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. Because it is inspired by God, it is truth without any mixture of error.
2 Tim 3:16, 2 Pet 1:20, 21; 2 Tim 1:13; Psalm 119:10, 160; Psalm 12:6; Proverbs 30:5

About Eternity!
Man was created to exist forever. After death, one will either exist eternally united with God in Heaven, or exist eternally separated from God in Hell. The gift of eternal life is offered to every individual through Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Heaven and Hell are places of eternal existence.
Jhn. 3:16; Jhn. 2:25; Jhn 5:11-13, Rms. 6:23, Rev 20:15, Matt 18:8, Matt. 25: 44, 46
About Ministry!
We believe that every Christian is a minister. It is the pastor's responsibility to help equip believers for ministry. Each minister has the responsibility to discover and employ their spiritual gifts in th life of the church. Every Christian needs to discover and be faithful in their ministry for Jesus Christ.
1 Cor. 12:7, Eph. 4:11-13
Plan of Salvation!
About Salvation!
Salvation is a gift from God to man. Man can never make up for his sin by self-improvement or good works. Only by trusting Jesus Christ as God's offer of forgiveness can man be saved from sin's penalty. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus Christ into his/her life by faith.
Rms 6:23; Eph2: 8-9; Jhn 14:6 Jhn 1:12; Titus 3:5; Gal 3:26; Rms 5:1

About Jesus Christ!
Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is coequal with the Father. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all men by dying on a cross. He arose from the dad after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to Heaven's glory and will return again to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
Matt 1:22,23; Isa 9:6; Jhn 1:1-5; John 14:10-30; Heb 4:14, 15; 1 Cor 15:3,4; Rms 1:3,4; Acts 1:9-11; 1 Tim 6:14,15; Titus 2:13About Praise and Worship!
The Christian exists to minister to the world, to other Christians and especially to God through praise and worship. We exist for the praise of His glory. Praise and Worship is celebrative as well as reflective and inspirational.

About Eternal Security!
Because God gives man eternal life through Jesus Christ, the believer is secure in that salvation for eternity. Salvation is maintained by grace and power of God, not by the self-effort of the Christian. It is the grace and keeping power of God that gives this security.
