What We Believe

---

That the Bible is inspired by God (2 Timothy 3:16) and desire to live lives that honor Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection. It’s because of Jesus’ sacrifice that we are offered eternal life (1 John 2), and this life is a gift of God (Ephesians 2). 

We affirm Romans 10:9-10, “If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.”  

A great way to sum up what we believe is to read The Apostles’ Creed;

The Apostles' Creed

I believe in God, the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
On the third day he rose again;
He ascended into heaven,
He is seated at the right hand of the Father,
And 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. 

*The word "catholic" in the Apostles' Creed refers not to the Roman Catholic Church, but to the universal Church of The Lord Jesus Christ.
