We are associated with Independent Christian Churches
and Churches of Christ as part of the Restoration Movement; which tries to restore the practice of the first century Church.
"Where the Bible speaks, we speak;
Where the Bible is silent, we are silent."
We hold that:
In essentials, Unity
In opinion, Liberty
In all things, Love
What We Believe
THE BIBLE
We believe the Bible is inspired by God, and is the sole authority for faith and practice. All our beliefs come from the Bible. (2 Tim. 3:15-16; 2 Pet. 3:15-16)
GOD
God is the one and only Sovereign Creator. He is holy, all-knowing, all-powerful, everywhere present, and eternally existent. (Ex. 3:14-15, 1.Tim. 6:15-16, Isa. 40:13-14, Jn. 4:24
God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are distinct personalities with distinct roles, but one God. (Mt. 28:19, Jn. 1:1-2; 10:30; 14:7-10)
JESUS CHRIST
Jesus became "God in the flesh". He existed in the beginning with God, and was God. He then was born a man through the miracle of the virgin birth by the power of the Holy Spirit. Despite temptation, He lived a sinless life. (Mt. 1:18-25, Lk. 1:26-45, Jn. 1:1-2; 14) Jesus was crucified and died a physical death as an atonement for the sins of mankind. He experienced a physical resurrection from the grave. (Lk. 23:23-24, 53; 1 Cor 15:3-8)
THE HOLY SPIRIT
The Holy Spirit lives within those who believe in Jesus Christ. He is our Comforter, our Advocate, and He helps us to become more like Jesus in thought, word, deed and character. (Gal. 2:20-21, Jn. 13:15-17)
