God

God, Creator of all things, perfect and eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Jesus Christ

Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God: conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary.  He died on the cross as a sacrifice for our sins; he rose again on the third day, ascended into heaven and is now seated at the right hand of God, interceding on our behalf.

The Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit ministers to glorify Jesus Christ, to convict people of sin, guide, instruct, and empower the believer for godly living and service, with spiritual gifts given by God.

The Bible

The Bible is God’s Word given by divine inspiration, the record of God's revelation of Himself to humanity.  It is trustworthy, sufficient, without error, the supreme authority and guide for all doctrine and personal conduct.

Mankind

Mankind was created in God's image, the crowning work of his creation.  In the beginning, mankind was innocent of sin and was endowed by God with freedom of choice.  By this free choice, mankind sinned against God through disobedience and brought sin into the human race.  Therefore all people are lost and face eternal separation from God without the saving grace of Jesus Christ.

Salvation

Salvation is a free gift from God, given to all, who by faith believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God.  "Salvation is found in no other person than Jesus Christ."  The only way to salvation is through faith in Jesus Christ; no one comes to the Father, except through Him (Ephesians 2:8-9; Acts 4:12).

Baptism

Baptism is an ordinance given to the church by Jesus, where believers are to be immersed in water.  It is an act of obedience symbolizing the believer's faith in a crucified, buried, and risen Savior; surrendering the old way of living and walking in newness of life.

The Lord's Supper

The Lord's Supper is a symbolic act of obedience, whereby Christians partake of the bread and the fruit of the vine, remember the death of Jesus, and celebrate His resurrection in anticipation of His second coming.
