“I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell. The third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty. From there He will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church*, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.”

God is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. He has eternally existed as the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The three are coequal and are one God. (Gen. 1:1, 26, 27, Psalm 90:2, Matt. 28:19, 2 Cor. 13:14)

Jesus is coequal with the Father and the Holy Spirit. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all people by dying on a cross. He rose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to heaven and will return to earth again to reign as King. (Matt. 1:22, 23, Isa. 9:6, John 1:1-5, Heb. 4:14-15, 1 Cor. 15:3-4, Rom. 1:3-4, Acts 1:9-11, Col. 2:9-10, 1 Tim. 6:14-15)

The Holy Spirit lives in each believer from salvation. He is coequal with the Father and the Son. He is present in the world to make people aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He provides the believer with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. He gives every believer spiritual gifts when they are saved. As Christians, we seek to live under His control daily. (Acts 1:8, John 14:16-17, 16:7-13, Galatians 5:25, 1 Cor. 2:12, 3:16, Eph. 1:13. 2 Cor. 13:14, 1 Pet. 1:2)

The Bible is God’s word to us. The Bible was written by human authors, under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs about living. Because it is inspired by God, it is truth without error and is the final authority in the believer’s life. (2 Tim. 3:16, 2 Pet. 1:20-21, Psalm 119:105, 160, Prov. 30:5, Isa. 55:11)

People are made in the spiritual image of God, to be like Him in character. Although every person has tremendous potential for good, all of us are marred by an attitude of disobedience toward God called "sin." Sin separates us from God and causes many problems in our life. People were created to exist forever. We will either exist eternally separated from God by sin or eternally with God through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God is hell. To be eternally in union with Him is eternal life in Heaven. Heaven and hell are real places of eternal existence. (Gen 1:27, Isa. 53:6, Rom. 3:23, Isa. 59:1-2, Psalm 139:13-16, Col. 2:13-15, John 3:16, 14:17, Rom. 6:23, Rev. 20:15, Phil. 2:5-11, Matt. 25:31-34, Matt. 25:41)

We can never make up for our sin by self-improvement or good works. Only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God's offer of forgiveness can anyone be saved from sin's penalty. When we turn from our self-ruled life and turn to Jesus in faith we are saved. Salvation begins the moment one receives Jesus Christ into his life by faith. (Rom. 6:23, Eph. 2:8-9, John 14:6, Rom. 5:1, 8, 10:9-10)

We believe the Bible is God’s written Word to us. It corrects us, guides us, and teaches us how to live godly lives. We don’t just read the Bible, we seek to live it out in our daily lives as well.

We love because God first loved us. We put our love for God into action by showing those around us that Jesus is the only way. We are unapologetic and unashamed about our love for Jesus.

God is a relational God who calls us into relationship with Him and His people. We choose to put on the identity that Christ has called us to and rejoice in being the family of Christ.

Prayer is our opportunity to speak directly to God and to know that He listens. Through the Holy Spirit, with Jesus as the mediator, believers can come before God praying for the world, others, and themselves.

As the hands and feet of Jesus, we offer back what God has given to us in order to glorify Him. It’s our privilege to participate with God in building His Kingdom here on earth.
