Last Things
We believe that the Bible is the final authority in all matters pertaining to Christian
faith and practice.
We believe there is only one living and true God, perfect, infinite and eternal.
We believe that man was created by God but has alienated himself from God and
is in need of reconciliation.
We believe that God became man in the person of Jesus Christ and that Jesus
Christ is both completely divine as well as completely human.
We believe that the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity and that He
empowers us for life and service.
We believe that through the gift of Jesus' death on the cross our rebellion can be
forgiven, and through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ we can be reconciled to
God.
We believe that the Church is universal and that it is manifested locally through
Christ’s followers.
We believe that both Baptism [believers/immersion] and The Lord's Supper are
visible signs of the realities of salvation. We are commanded to observe them, but
we do not depend on them for salvation.
We believe that Christ will return at God's appointed time.
