An independent, Bible-believing Baptist church. The Bible itself is the sole and final authority for all we believe.
Who God is, and how He has spoken to us.
We believe all sixty-six books of the Bible were given by God, word for word, without error in the originals. We use the Authorized King James Version as a faithful copy, and it is our final authority for faith and life. Read in its plain, literal sense, Scripture shows how God has dealt with people through the ages.
We believe in one true God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe Jesus Christ is God the Son. He was born of a virgin, lived without sin, worked miracles, and died on the cross as the payment for our sins. He rose bodily from the grave, ascended to the Father, and now intercedes for His people.
We believe the Holy Spirit is a person. He convicts the world of sin, gives new life, places every believer into the body of Christ, lives within and seals the believer, and teaches us to understand God's Word. God may choose to heal in answer to prayer.
Our need, and God's free gift in Christ.
We believe God created the universe in six literal days, and made man in His own image by a special act of creation, not by evolution. Through Adam's disobedience the whole human race fell into sin and is lost apart from God's grace.
We believe salvation is by grace through faith in the shed blood of Jesus Christ. It happens in an instant and has nothing to do with human merit. Every person must personally trust Christ and receive Him as Saviour to be saved.
We believe salvation is eternal. Everyone who is truly born again is kept by God and can rejoice in full assurance, while never using that liberty as an excuse to sin.
How believers worship, serve, and live together.
We believe the local church is the body and bride of Christ, made up only of born-again believers, and is self-governing, free of any outside authority or control.
We believe baptism is the immersion of a believer in water, in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. It does not save, but testifies to what Christ has done. The Lord's Supper remembers His death until He comes. The bread and cup are symbols, and the Supper should be preceded by careful self-examination.
We believe the Christian life is one of righteousness, good works, and separation from the evil ways of the world, guided by the Bible and strengthened by the Holy Spirit. Our goal is to grow in Christ, build up other believers, and lead others to Him.
We believe God established civil government for good order. Leaders are to be prayed for, honored, and obeyed, except where that would go against God's Word.
What Scripture says about the end of this age.
We believe Satan is a real, created being who fell through pride. He is the god of this world, but his judgment is certain, and he will be cast into the lake of fire.
We believe in the personal, imminent return of Jesus Christ for His church before the Tribulation, and His return with the church at the end of the Tribulation to reign on earth for a thousand years.
We believe in the bodily resurrection of all people. At death, believers go to be present with the Lord, and will live with Him forever. Those who reject Christ face judgment and everlasting, conscious punishment.
We would be glad to talk with you, or to open the Bible together.
