• I believe the Bible is God's Holy
Word. It is unique from all other literature
in that, without error, it is the final authority
on truth (2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:19-21).
• I believe in only one living and true God, We
believe that in the Godhead there are three personal
distinctions: The Father, The Son, and The
Holy Spirit (1 Peter 1:2; Matthew 28:19).
• I believe they are co-equal in power and glory,
identical in their essential natures, characteristics,
and perfection and that they are co-eternal (Genesis
1:2; John 17.5)
• I believe the Bible reveals Jesus Christ as "being
the eternal Son of God, became man" (Hebrews
2:16; John 1:14; Luke 1:35)
• I believe that Jesus reveals to us the nature
of God and teaches us about our own nature, which
is utterly sinful. Our sin separates us from
God, who created us to have fellowship with Him.
The Bible teaches us that no amount of "good
works" will ever make us acceptable to God
(Romans 5: 6-8)
• I believe the Bible teaches that God extends
grace, though we do not deserve it, can not earn
it, and can never repay it, through the death
and resurrection of His Son (John 3:16).
• I believe that Jesus Christ is God born a man.
We believe that He lived a sinless life and died
to pay the penalty for our sins. He rose bodily
from the grave and gives eternal life to those
who believe in Him (Acts 15: 31; Romans 10: 9,10).
• As a believer, I depend upon the Holy Spirit
to do what we could never do before; bring glory
to God and love and serve men (Ephesians 5:23:
Ephesians 2:8-9). |
