Core Beliefs
Beliefs can be classified as Core or Shared. We believe that the following core beliefs are essential for attaining Salvation and are explicitly stated in Scripture without exception. Our shared beliefs are not vital for salvation and may not be clearly and unambiguously addressed in Scripture. It is crucial for our church to establish a clear position on these shared beliefs to ensure that we remain united and cohesive as a community. Our teachings and ministries are rooted in the following biblical core beliefs.
One purpose of Jesus Christ’s life was to restore our relationship with God. He lived a sinless life and willingly sacrificed himself on the cross to pay for our mistakes. God resurrected him, and now, by His mercy, offers eternal life as a free gift to anyone who confesses Jesus as their Lord and believes in His resurrection. Salvation cannot be earned by our actions but is a gift from God. We believe that all true believers will be kept safe in Christ forever and will show evidence of a changed life.
We hold the belief that the Bible is the Word of God, directly spoken by God and inspired through the Holy Spirit to Human authors who recorded it using their own personalities. It serves as the ultimate, absolute, and impeccable source of authority in both teachings and actions. Every scripture has value in guiding, correcting, and admonishing the lives of those who believe in Jesus Christ.
