Statement of Faith

We Believe.

We share our statement of faith so that you may know and understand the foundation of who we are and why we do what we do.

Our Statement of Faith

The Bible is the only inspired, infallible and authoritative Word of God.
(John 16:13, II Timothy 3:15-17, II Peter 1:21, I Thessalonians 2:13).

There is one God, eternally existent in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
(Deuteronomy 6:4, Isaiah 43:10-11, Matthew 28:19, Luke 3:22, John 14:16).

In the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ (John 1:1, Philippians 2:6-11, John 1:14, Isaiah 9:6, John 20:28-29, Colossians 2:9), whose divinity is, or will be, evidenced by:

  • His virgin birth. (Matthew 1:18, Luke 1:34-35, Isaiah 7:14).
  • His sinless life. (II Corinthians 5:21, Hebrews 7:26, I John 3:5, Hebrews 4:15, 7:26-27, I Peter 2:22).
  • His miracles. (Matthew 4:23, Luke 6:17-19, John 3:2).
  • His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood. (Colossians 1:14, 20, Romans 5:8- 9, Ephesians 1:7).
  • His bodily resurrection. (I Cor. 15:3-4, Luke 24:4-7, 36-48, Rev 1:17-18).
  • His ascension to the right hand of the Father. (Acts 2:23, 5:30-31, I Pet 3:22).
  • His personal return in power and in glory. (Acts 1:11, Philippians 2:9-11, I Thessalonians 1:10, 4:13-18, John 14:1-3).

That justification by faith in the atonement of Jesus Christ and regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for the salvation of lost and sinful man.
(Romans 3:24-25, John 3:3-7, Ephesians 2:1-16, Revelation 5:9, Acts 4:12, I Cor. 6:11, John 5:11-13).

The prime agency for the work of God’s Kingdom is the Christian local church functioning under the sovereignty of our Lord Jesus Christ. To the church have been entrusted the ordinances of Believer’s Baptism and the Lord’s Supper
(Acts 16:4-5, Matt 16:18, Matt 28:18-20, Acts 2:41- 47, Eph 1:22-23, I Car. 12, II Cor. 11:23-26).

In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, which includes: His indwelling by which the Christian is enabled to live a godly life; His supernatural gifting and empowering of the church for its work, life and worship.
(Luke 24:49, Acts 1:4-8, Acts 2:1-4, 10:4-46, I Cor. 12, 14).

In the return of Jesus Christ to consummate His Kingdom; in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost, those who are saved unto the resurrection of life and those who are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
(John 5:28-29, Revelation 20:4-5, 11-12, Mark 14:62, Revelation 1:5- 7, II Thessalonians 1:2-10).

In the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
(John 17:11, 21-23, Romans 12:4-5, Ephesians 4:11-16).

That God has ordained marriage and defined it as the covenant relationship between a man and a woman and therefore, the corporation will only recognize marriages between one biological man and one biological woman.
(Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6, Ephesians 5:22-33).

This Statement on Marriage and Sexuality specifically gives the Corporation the right and authority to hire staff and restrict the use of any facilities and property under its control to uses consistent with the Bible, its Statement  of Faith, and Statement on Marriage and Sexuality as solely determined by the Board of Directors.
