What we Believe

We believe that God is the Creator. We believe in the Trinity and Jesus is God.

Genesis 1:1, 26 “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth…Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness…”

John 1: 1-3 “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.”

We believe Jesus is the only way to right standing before God.

John 14: 6  Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”

Romans 10:9-10 “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.”

We believe that God has a plan for all of us and that plan is good.

Jeremiah 29:11-13 “9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.”

We believe in the battle of light and dark in this world, over each person.

John 10:10 “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”

Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”

We believe in going because that’s what Jesus said to do.

Matthew 25:31-46 “…Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’ “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’”

Mark 16:15 “He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.” And when necessary, use words (Quote, unknown author)

 Our only emphases for everyone is a growing relationship with Jesus. Be believe in aiming to live like Jesus taught, growing in love for ourselves, others and God. When we do that and encourage others too, we let God work out the details.

Mark 12:30-31 “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’  The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b] There is no commandment greater than these.”
