Statement of Faith

Man holding the holy scriptures written in the Bible close to his chest because Biblical principles are very important to him whether he is Christian or Catholic.
All of our statements of faith rest on the authority of the Bible. The interpretation of this authority rest with a majority interpretation of the board. We believe, affirm, and confess the following:

BIBLE

is God's word—holy, inspired, inerrant, and the final authority for faith and practice.


(Ps 119; Jn 10:35; 2 Timothy 3:16-17; Heb 4:12; 2 Pe 1:20-21)

GOD

is one, holy, good, unchanging, and eternally existent in three persons—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.


(Ge 1:1; Deut 6:4; Is 45:5; Mal 3:6; Mt 28:18-19; Jn 10:30, 17:22; 1 Cor 8:4; Eph 4:6)

JESUS

is the eternally begotten, not made, Son of God. He is fully God and fully man. By his perfect obedience and sacrifice on the cross, He became the only Savior of the world for all who would believe in Him as Lord and Savior.


(Is 9:6-7, 53:4-12; Mt 12:21; Mk 10:45; Lk 1:30-35, 9:20; Jn 1:1-14, 1:18, 3:16-17, 11:25, 14:6; 2 Cor 5:18-21; Ga 4:4; Col 1:15-19; 1 Timothy 2:3-6; 2 Timothy 1:10; Heb 4:15; 1 Pe 2:24, 3:18)

HOLY SPIRIT

is the third person of the triune God. He is the one who brings forth and life, and spiritual rebirth. Man is utterly dependent upon the Spirit for growth in holiness.


(Jn 3:3-8, 16:12-14; I Cor 12:3-30; Ga 5:16-26; Eph 4:3-16, 5:18)

MAN

is created in the image of God as either male or female. As created beings in His image, we are all subject to the rule and reign of our Creator. Being created in the image of God, every person has dignity, worth, and is distinguished from the rest of the created order.


(Ge 1:27, 2:16-17, 3:1-24; Ps 51:5; Acts 2:38; Rm 3:12, 3:23, 5:1-2, 6:23, 10:9-10, 11:29; Eph 2:1-3, 2:8-10; Col 3:23-24)
