Our Beliefs
We believe in one God, who exists eternally in three persons: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
We believe, that every person has sinned, which is what drew the condemnation of God.
We believe that Scripture is the indisputable source of learning about God.
We believe that baptism is a public profession of faith of the person who is baptized.
Each of these persons is fully God; however, there are not three Gods, but only One. We believe that Jesus of Nazareth is the Christ, the Son of God. He is God from God -- begotten not created. He also had a human nature and was in all things like us except for sin.
However, God, in his love, sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to reveal to us the Father and show people a way to be rescued. Through His death and resurrection, Jesus assured our return to God, or in other words salvation. This salvation is a gift of God's grace, that we receive by putting our faith in Him.
All teachings and religious practices are evaluated in light of the Holy Scriptures. Any tradition incompatible with the Scriptures is not binding.
For this reason, only those who have made a conscious decision to believe in the message of the Scriptures and have decided to live in obedience to God can be baptized.
