The Bible: God’s Love Letter to Mankind. Our Creator preserved His message in writing because He wants you to be part of His eternal family. Romans 15:4

Bible; We believe the Bible, to be the inspired Word of God, without error, the revelation of His will for the salvation of men, and the divine and final authority for all Christian faith and life. 2 Timothy 3: 15,16 l 2 Peter 1:19,21
God; We believe in one God existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. God has always been and will always be the only God. There were none before Him and shall be none after him.
The Father; We believe that the Father created all things in heaven and on earth. He created human beings out of a love for us and desires a personal relationship with each of us.
Jesus; We believe that Jesus Christ is true God and true man, having been conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He lived a sinless life and died on the cross as the sacrifice for our sins according to the Scriptures. Further, He arose bodily from the dead and ascended into heaven. Matthew 3: 16,17 l 1 John 5:7
Holy Spirit; We believe that the ministry of the Holy Spirit is to convict men, making them aware of their sin and the salvation available through Jesus. He regenerates, guides, instructs,
and empowers the believer for godly living and service.
Man; We believe that man was created in the image of God and sinless, but fell into sin and is therefore lost and subject to judgment. There is nothing man can do to save himself from this judgement, but he can allow the death of Jesus to take the place of his own eternal damnation by acknowledging God and accepting the free gift of salvation. Genesis 1:26,31 l Romans 5:14
Salvation; We believe that the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ provides the only way of justification and salvation for all who believe. Furthermore, any who attach additional works of man as a requirement for salvation are false in that they infer Jesus death is insufficient in and of itself to save and that human beings somehow have the capability to save themselves.
Accepting the Sinner, Denouncing the Sin; We believe that no sin is too big for God to forgive. Therefore, as Christians we should be open and eager to share the Gospel with everyone regardless of their sin or affliction. However, making Jesus lord of our lives means striving towards holiness and turning from our sinful ways. Therefore, while being open to all sinners, Christians ought not accept, ignore, or promote any sin as permissible.
John 3:16 - For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life
2 Timothy 4: 3-5
3 For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. 4 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. 5 But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry.
