We believe the Bible, consisting of the Old and New Testaments, is the Word of God. That it is without error in the original and that we have reasonably accurate copies of it in our standard English translations.

We believe the Bible is ultimately our only rule of faith and practice. This does not rule out sound reason, but places it below the authority of God's Word.

We believe the Bible teaches that God is a triune God; that there are three persons in the Godhead: God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit; and that these three are ONE in essence. (Deut. 6:4, Matt 28:19)

We believe our Lord, Jesus Christ, is the only begotten Son of God; that He was truly God and truly man; that these two natures unite in the one person, Jesus Christ; and that the nature of God and man were never fused or confused, even though they are united in His person.

We believe in our Lord's virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His death on the cross, His bodily resurrection, and His ascension into Heaven to sit at the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return again in power and glory to judge the living and dead and establish His eternal Kingdom.

We believe Christ, our Lord, died for all our sins and that He sent the Holy Spirit, the Comforter, to regenerate man so that he may truly repent and believe in Christ and God's promises through Him. Individuals are saved (receive eternal life) and delivered from hell by receiving Christ as their personal Lord and Savior and not by works.  (Ephesians 2: 8,9)

We believe that God, through Christ, has called us into His church to be followers of Him, by proclaiming the Gospel to all the World, by resisting the powers of evil and aiding the causes of righteousness, by administering the sacraments of Baptism and the Lord's Supper, and by joining together to worship in spirit and truth (John 4: 24), by teaching and preaching God's Word, and by showing mutual concern for the physical and spiritual welfare of one another.
