God is a Triune God: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. He is the sovereign Lord of heaven and earth. He created the world and all it contains in six, 24 hour days. The ultimate purpose of God's creation is to reveal His glory.
The Bible is the Word of God, inspired by the Holy Spirit and, therefore, without error. God has revealed Himself to us in the Bible and He tells us all we need to know for our salvation.
God is holy and righteous; therefore, He punished every sin. God created man perfect, but Adam, the first man, rebelled against God and consequently died spiritually. As a result, every descendant of Adam is born guilty and worthy of God's wrath. Man can do nothing pleasing to God, much less come to God in faith.
But, God is also a God of love, demonstrating this love by sending His own Son, Jesus Christ to save His people from their sins. By suffering and dying on the cross, Jesus endured the eternal punishment which His people deserved and reconciled them to God. Having fully paid for their sins, Jesus arose and now reigns supreme in heaven.
Jesus is coming again to be the Judge of all the living and the dead. Those who believe in Him will dwell with Him in eternal glory. Those that know not God and obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Chris will suffer God's eternal wrath in hell.
We believe in the importance of serious holy Christian living. This requires spiritual separations from the evil of the world. It involves taking God's law seriously and living in good works. We must live a life of devotion to the glory of God.
We believe in the importance of maintaining strong Christian homes. God has established His covenant with believers and their children which obligates us as parents to be serious about the instruction of our children. Our church has a strong program for the instruction of children in the truth of the Word of God to equip them for later life as mature Christians and citizens of the Kingdom of Christ . |
