our Beliefs
God
We believe there is only one God. Who is sovereign above all? God is infinite and all-powerful. He has been revealed to us as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Deuteronomy 6:4
2 Corinthians 13:14
John 1:1
Jesus
Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God. He is the only man ever to have lived a sinless life. He was born of a virgin, lived an innocent life, performed miracles, died on the cross for humanity, and thus, atoned for our sins by shedding His blood. According to the Scriptures, he rose from the dead on the third day, ascended to the Father's right hand, and will return again in power and glory.

The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is present to make men aware of their need for Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. The Holy Spirit gives the Christian the power to live, understand spiritual truth, and guide in doing what is right. The Christian seeks to live under the direction of the Holy Spirit daily.
The Church
The church is the Body of Christ: the habitation of God through the Spirit and with divine appointments to fulfill Jesus' great commission. Every person born of the Spirit is an integral part of the church as a member of the body of believers. There is a spiritual unity of all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.​
