Biblical Foundation Statement

The Bible

We affirm that the Bible is divinely inspired by God and serves as the ultimate authority for the faith of the believing community. It is infallible, authoritative, and free from error in its entirety.

The Trinity

We believe in one true and living God, who is eternal, transcendent, omnipotent, and personal. This God exists in three distinct but harmonious persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Each person of the Trinity is fully and equally God, executing distinct roles within the unified divine essence.

God the Father

We acknowledge God the Father as the first person of the Divine Trinity, embodying perfect holiness, wisdom, power, and love. He is infinitely sovereign, eternal, and unchanging, deserving of our honor, adoration, and obedience.

God the Son

We recognize Jesus Christ as the second person of the Divine Trinity, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He is fully God and fully man, living a sinless life and fulfilling His role as the perfect Son.

The Holy Spirit

We affirm the Holy Spirit as the third person of the Triune Godhead, actively involved throughout eternity. The Holy Spirit convicts, regenerates, indwells, sanctifies, and seals believers in Christ, empowering them for service. Believers are filled with the Spirit upon salvation, and while spiritual gifts are bestowed, their manifestation is not a prerequisite for salvation.

Historicity

We affirm the historical accuracy of the biblical account of primeval history, including the literal existence of Adam and Eve as the progenitors of humanity, the fall and resultant divine curse, the global flood, and the origins of nations and languages at the Tower of Babel. We also affirm the realities of heaven and hell.

Redemption

We believe in the redemptive grace of God through the substitutionary work of Jesus Christ, who atoned for the sins of the world through His literal death, burial, resurrection, and subsequent ascension into heaven.

Salvation

We uphold the belief that salvation is a personal gift from God, achieved solely through His grace and the atoning work of Jesus Christ. It is appropriated by faith in Christ’s completed work, rather than by human effort or merit. Salvation offers eternal deliverance from the penalty of sin.

Eschatology

We anticipate the personal and visible return of Jesus Christ to establish His kingdom on earth. We affirm the resurrection of the body, final judgment, the eternal joy of the righteous, and the fulfillment of divine purposes in creation and redemption, which includes both eternal rewards and punishments.

Biblical Creation

e believe in the biblical account of creation as both a historical and theological record of God’s creative work. The universe, including all its systems and living organisms, was created by God in a literal six-day period.

Satan

We recognize the existence of Satan as a personal, malevolent being who acts as a tempter and accuser. Believers can resist Satan through faith and reliance on the Holy Spirit. Satan, along with those who reject Christ, is destined for eternal punishment, where they will face conscious torment for eternity.
