WE SEE OUR CHURCH…
with no limits to God, His power and love expressed through it
reaching out to our community with the transforming power of God’s love
as a refuge for the lost, hurting, and lonely
generously giving time, skills and money to serve the Kingdom of God
passionate in its pursuit of God in every aspect of each person’s life
as an army staying in step with the Spirit and taking the enemy’s ground
standing for justice and truth in a spirit of love upholding righteousness not selfishness
with influence nationally, ministering regionally
Our Statement of Faith
WE BELIEVE
There is one God — God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit
In the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ the Son of God — we believe in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, His constant intercession and in His imminent return
In the person and work of the Holy Spirit with His fruits and gifts available in the Church
The Bible is the living word of God — infallible, authoritative and everlasting, and the foundation of all Christian doctrine
In the existence of an evil spiritual being — the devil
In the spiritually lost condition of all people and the essential need for the “new birth” by faith in Jesus Christ
In the baptism of the Holy Spirit as a gift available to believers subsequent to the new birth, with the normal evidence of speaking in other tongues
In the sacraments of the Lord’s Supper and baptism by full immersion in water for all believers
In the resurrection of both the saved and the lost, the one to everlasting life and the other to everlasting separation from God
In the church being the body of Christ, and each member being an active part of a local church, fulfilling the Great Commission.
Marriage was instituted by God, ratified by Jesus, and is exclusively between a man and a woman. It is a picture of Christ and his church.
Sex is a gift from God for procreation and unity, and it is only appropriate within and designed for marriage.
