What We Believe

  • We believe in one God, revealed in the Holy Trinity - God, the Father, God, the Son (Jesus Christ), God, the Holy Spirit.
  • We believe that God is love, a love so great and deep that He desires people to come to eternal "Saving" Faith in Jesus Christ. People come to eternal "Saving" faith when they realize and accept, that in God’s love, He provided the required sacrifice for sins. That sacrifice was Jesus Christ, His One and Only Son. Therefore, every person who repents of their sins and accepts Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, will spend eternity in Heaven when they leave this earth.
  • We believe the Bible is the holy Word of God.
  • We believe that Jesus Christ is coming back and will rapture His church from this earth.
  • We believe the Christians should worship the Jesus in Spirit and in truth and faithfully.
  • We believe that we should genuinely strive to honor the Lord with our lives.
