God is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. He has eternally existed in three persons as explained in the Bible: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and are One.
Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is co-equal with the Father and the Holy Spirit. Jesus is fully God and fully human. He lived a sinless human life and offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of everyone by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to Heaven and will return again to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
The Holy Spirit is equal with the Father and the Son (Jesus) as God. The Holy Spirit is present in the world to make people aware of their need for Jesus and the work He has done. The Holy Spirit also lives in every follower of Jesus from the moment of salvation. The Holy Spirit provides the Christian with power for living, understanding spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. Followers of Jesus seek to live under the control of the Holy Spirit daily.
Salvation is a gift from God. People can never make up for what they have done wrong by self-improvement or good works. The only way to be saved from the penalty of our wrong doing (a.k.a. sin) is by trusting in Jesus as God’s offer of forgiveness. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus into his life by faith.
God is the One that gives eternal life through Jesus Christ. The person who truly believes in Jesus can be secure in this salvation for eternity. Why? This salvation is maintained by the grace and power of God, not by the self-effort of a person. It is the grace and keeping power of God that gives this security.

We believe the canonical books of the Old and New Testaments to be the inspired Word of God, containing all things necessary for salvation, and to be the final authority and unchangeable standard for Christian faith and life.
Every new believer should be baptized by immersion as a symbol of their new birth in Christ. Every believer should participate in the Lord’s Supper as a symbol of remembrance of Jesus’ suffering, death, and resurrection; to celebrate our unity in Christ; and to anticipate His return in victory.
