About Us
Doctrine & Worship

Bible: The Bible is the inspired, inerrant, infallible, one - hundred percent accurate Word of God. We accept the Bible as our final authority in matters pertaining to life, conduct, and doctrine.
2 Timothy 3:15-17

God: We believe there is only one true God, the Creator of all things, Who is infinitely holy and eternally existent in three persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
John 14:16

Holy Spirit: The present ministry of the Holy Spirit is to indwell the Christian to guide, instruct, and supernaturally empower the Believer for righteous, victorious, joyful living, and miracle giving service. The precious Holy Spirit is available to every Believer, to fill you with power and to enable you to pray in an unknown language.
Mark 16:17- 18

Jesus: Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered Himself as a sacrifice for all humanity by dying on the cross. He arose bodily from the dead, ascended into Heaven, and is now at the right hand of God as our Intercessor.
  2 Corinthians 5:17

Salvation: Mankind was created in the image of God (Genesis 1:26) but chose to separate from Him and spiritually died. Only through complete surrender to the Lordship of Jesus Christ can a person receive eternal life. The blood shed by Jesus Christ on the cross redeemed our spirit, soul, and body. Salvation is inclusive. The efficacy of the cross provides eternal preservation, healing, deliverance, divine protection, and prosperity.

Worship
We encourage you to worship in the way you feel most comfortable. God looks at the heart, so we respect one another's joyous expressions in the acknowledgment of Jesus.
