Statement of Faith I believe the Bible is the Word of God and is without error. I believe in one God Who eternally exists in three persons, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. I believe that God the Father is the Creator of everything. He is Holy, all-knowing, all-powerful, and omnipresent. God is eternal, just, and loving. I believe that He sent His only Son, Jesus Christ, who became man but also remained God. He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary so that He may reveal God and redeem sinful man. I believe that Christ accomplished His purpose in redeeming us from our sinful state (separation from God) through His death on the cross. I believe that my salvation is guaranteed by Christ's life and resurrection from the dead. I believe that while Christ is in Heaven with the Father, the Holy Spirit is at work in the world to restrain evil, and convict people of sin. The Holy Spirit is at work in all believers carrying out God's purposes. I believe that there is a Devil, the fallen angel Lucifer (Satan), an enemy of God and all Christians, and originator of sin. I believe that Christ will return as promised to bring His people to Him and create a new Heaven and Earth. Ultimately Satan and Sin will be totally removed from God's people and we will live with Him eternally in Heaven. Our work as Christians here on earth is to go and spread God s word, lead people to Christ, grow as a body of believers in Christ, and glorify Him in everything we do. I believe that each one of us is unique and we were meant to have a personal ongoing relationship with Christ and with other people.
