To do this, we have a solid foundation of core beliefs that give us sure footing in today's world of shifting positions and political correctness.
The listing below is meant to give you a taste of that firm foundation upon which we as a church are building.
God
There is only one true God who manifests Himself as the Trinity - Father, Son, and Spirit. God is all-knowing, all-powerful, everywhere, perfect, loving, just, faithful, merciful, creative, and so much more! Jesus is the Son of God and the only Savior for mankind.
Humanity
God created man in His image to have fellowship with Him and to share in the rulership over His creation. Every man and woman born was created with a divine purpose and dream, and has great value to God and the fulfillment of His Kingdom on earth. (Gen 1:26-28)
Sin
Man sinned through Adam's disobedience and has lived under the curse that passed down a sin-bent nature. Every person born is guilty before God and deserving of fitting punishment. (Rom 5:12-20, Rom 6:23)
Salvation & Restoration
God loves us so much that He took the punishment for man's sin upon Himself when He send His Son Jesus to die on the cross. If we come to God for real relationship through repentance, salvation is a free gift that begins to work restoration in our lives. (John 3:16, Rom 5:8 & 15, Rom 10:9-10, Eph 2:8-9)
Bible
God has carefully orchestrated history and people to produce a writting manifestation of His thoughts toward man, as well as the principles by which we should live. The Bible is the pure word of God for man and will lead us to real relationships with both God and others. (2 Tim 3:16, Joshua 1:8)
Present Truth
God hasn't finished speaking. Since the mid 1500's, God has been restoring Truth in the earth that had been lost through the Dark Ages. Waves of Reformation and Restoration have been overtaking the earth to realign man with the Truth and purposes of God. Our passion and success will largely be determined by our ability to discern God's voice in our generation and align ourselves to be obedient to it. (1 Chron 12:32, 2 Peter 1:12)
Church
God has chosen to fulfill the work of His Son Jesus through the blood washed saints who come together to define the Body and Bride of Christ. The church is a growing orgainism, not a static organization. Led and equipped by a graced 5-fold leadership (Eph 4:1-16) and empowered by the Spirit and His gifts (Acts 1:8, Roms 12:5-8, 1 Cor 12) , the church is destined for greatness as she enforces God's judgements and brings manifestation on earth to God's Kingdom until all the kingdoms of the earth are brought into God's Kingdom (Ps 149:9, Rev 15:11).
