Statement of Faith

• There is one God, eternally existent in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
• That the Bible is the divinely inspired Word of God and is infallible in the origional manuscripts.  It can, however, be mistranslated or misunderstood when taken out of  historical and literary context.
• That Jesus of Nazareth, historically recorded as living some 2,000 years before this writing, is God incarnate, born of a virgin, fully God and fully human, and that by being one with God, Jesus has demonstrated once and forever that all people are likewise Children of God, being spiritually made in God's image.
• Every person is justified by grace to God through faith in Jesus Christ.
• That the Holy Spirit is God making known God's love and interest to all people. The Holy Spirit is God, available to and working through all who are willing to place their welfare in God's keeping.  
• That while spiritual gifts such as speaking in other tongues are valid expressions of faith, they are far less important than the development of personal character.
