Core Foundational Beliefs
We believe in the Holy Trinity—one God, eternally existing in Three Persons: Father, Son
and Holy Spirit.

We believe in one God the Father, creator of heaven and earth, of all things seen and unseen.

All things were made through Him and for Him. He is true God and true man. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit, and was born of the virgin Mary. He suffered, died, was buried, and on thethird day He rose from the dead. He ascended to the right hand of the Father, and He will return to judge the living and the dead. His kingdom will have no end.  
 
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of life, who eternally proceeds from the
Father. He is Teacher, Comforter, Helper, and Giver of spiritual gifts.  Through Him the
saving and sanctifying works of Jesus Christ are applied to the life of believers. He is the
empowering Presence of God in the life of the Christian and the Church. The Father has sent
His Son to baptize with the Holy Spirit. Speaking in tongues and bearing the fruit of the
Spirit are New Testament signs of being filled with the Holy Spirit.
 
We believe that salvation is by grace through faith in the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ on
the cross; and that He died in our place. The believer’s sins are forgiven by the shedding of
His blood. We believe that healing of mind, body, soul, and spirit is available to the believer
through the blood of Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit.

We believe that the grace of God brings forgiveness and reconciliation to those who repent,
as well as transformation in holiness, enabling them to live a Christ-like life. Sanctification is
both a definite work of grace and a lifelong process of change in the believer brought by the
blood of Jesus, the Word of God, and the enabling power of the Holy Spirit.
 
We believe in one holy, universal Church, composed of all true believers in Jesus Christ,
offering fellowship and calling for service to men and women of all races, nations, cultures,
and languages. We believe in the spiritual and ultimate visible unity of the Church.
 
We believe that the Bible—both Old and New Testaments—is the inspired Word of God. The
Bible is God’s revelation of Himself and His will to humankind, sufficient for instruction in
salvation and daily Christian living. The Bible is the Christian’s rule of faith and practice.
 
We believe that God will ultimately reconcile all things in heaven and earth in Christ.
Therefore, we look forward to new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.
