Statement of Faith</b></font></p>
<blockquote>
<p><font color="#000099" face="Arial">1) We hold the Bible as the complete and unique
divine revelation. We believe it is the inspired Word of God, God breathed, and is
infallible.<br>
<br>
2) We believe that God is eternally one and also eternally three, the Father, the Son, and
the Spirit, i.e. the Triune God.&nbsp; We believe that three of the Trinity are distinct
but not separate. <br>
<br>
3) We hold that Christ is both the complete God and the perfect man. Without abandoning
His divinity, He was conceived in the womb of a human virgin, lived a genuine human life
on earth, and died a vicarious and all-inclusive death on the cross. After three days He
resurrected bodily and ascended to the heavens. He is now in glory, fully God but still
fully man. He will physically return from the heavens with the kingdom of God, and He will
reign over the earth in the millennium and in eternity. <br>
<br>
4) We believe that mankind is in need of God's salvation and we, as fallen sinners, can
not fulfill the demands of God's righteousness, holiness, and glory.&nbsp; We believe that
Jesus Christ fulfilled all these requirements through His perfect life and His death on
the cross. We believe that anyone who through repentance and personal faith in Jesus
Christ comes to God will be eternally saved (by faith and not by works).&nbsp; We believe
that because of Christ's death, and through our faith, God has forgiven us of our sins,
reconciled us to Himself and justified us. Based on Christ's redemption, God also
regenerates the redeemed with His Spirit that they may become His children, possessing
God's life and nature. We believe that this is an eternal salvation and that in eternity
we will dwell with God in the New Jerusalem.</font></p>
