I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.

I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit
and born of the Virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
He descended to hell.
The third day He rose again from the dead.
He ascended to heaven
and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty.
From there He will come to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic* church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen.

(*That is, the true Christian church of all times and places.)

We believe that the Church is made up of all people who put their faith in Jesus, regardless of location. The Church is empowered by the Holy Spirit to carry out God's mission on earth. While the Church is a global community, it is also expressed in local gatherings, each with unique characteristics. We believe that the Church exists not for itself, but as a community of worshipers called to serve others as Jesus taught. (Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 1:8; 2:1-47; Ephesians 1:22-23; 4:11-13; 5:25-30; 1 Corinthians 12:27)

Baptism in Water: We believe that water baptism is a biblical command for all who repent and believe in Christ. Through baptism, believers publicly declare their union with Christ in His death and resurrection. (Matthew 28:19; Mark 16:16; Acts 10:47-48; Romans 6:4)

Holy Communion: The Lord’s Supper, consisting of bread and the fruit of the vine, symbolizes our sharing in the divine nature of Jesus Christ. It serves as a memorial of His suffering and death and a proclamation of His return. (2 Peter 1:4; 1 Corinthians 11:26)

We believe that the Bible is the inspired Word of God. It is authoritative and serves as the foundation for our faith and daily living. (2 Timothy 3:15-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21; Matthew 5:18; John 16:12-13; Psalm 19:7-11; 119:105)

We believe in one eternal God who is all-powerful, all-knowing, and infinitely good. God exists eternally as three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Genesis 1:26-27; Deuteronomy 6:4; Colossians 1:15-17; Hebrews 1:8; 2 Corinthians 13:14)

Jesus is the exact representation of God’s nature. He was born of the Virgin Mary, fully God and fully man. He lived a sinless life, died as a sacrifice for our sins, and rose again. Through faith in Him, we are forgiven and reconciled to God. Jesus ascended to heaven and will one day return to establish justice and restore creation. (Matthew 1:18-25; John 1:14; Acts 1:9-11; Romans 5:8-10; Colossians 1:15-17; Hebrews 1:3)

The Holy Spirit dwells in all who trust in Jesus, teaching, comforting, convicting, and empowering believers. Through the Spirit, we are equipped with gifts to serve the Church and the world. (John 16:8-11; 2 Corinthians 3:6; 1 Corinthians 12:12-14; Romans 8:9; Ephesians 5:18)

All people are created in God’s image with dignity and value. However, sin separates us from God. Jesus’ death and resurrection provide the way for reconciliation with God. By faith in Christ, we receive forgiveness and new life. (Ephesians 2:8-10; John 1:12; Ephesians 1:7; Romans 3:22-26; 10:9-10; 1 Corinthians 15:1-7)

We adhere to the biblical teachings regarding sexuality and marriage. "So God created mankind in His own image... male and female He created them." (Genesis 1:27) We honor and support both marriage and singleness, recognizing the unique gifts each person brings to the Church.

While there are various views on the end times, we hold to the core belief that Jesus will one day return for His Church. (Daniel 12:2; Matthew 24-25; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Revelation 20-22)

We affirm that God is the Creator of all things. While interpretations of how and when creation occurred may differ, we believe that all creation exists for God’s purpose and glory (Genesis 1-2; Colossians 1:15-17).
