OUR FAITH
God is three Persons; the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. God is, was, and always will be. God is perfect in character. God is the Creator of all things. God created all things good. Human beings are created in the image of God.
Our relationship with God was broken through sin. Sin is our choice to reject God and act in opposition to His perfect character. In our sinful state we are utterly hopeless and unable to come back to our Creator. In order to restore relationship, God became a man and walked among us in the person of Jesus Christ. He paid our debt of sin through His death on the cross, and secured for us eternal life through His resurrection.
Because of His sacrifice and by His grace we are made new, and are invited to become a part of His family by believing in Him and walking in obedience to His commandments.
As His children He gives us the gift of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit convicts us of sin, comforts us, and guides us to right understanding and right living. We are able to communicate with God through prayer, and we learn who God is, and what His will is through the Bible and the work of the Holy Spirit in our lives.
Our walk of faith is meant to be shared with a body of believers. As a body we are able to care for, encourage, correct, pray for, and love each member. Our faith should be evident in our lives and be demonstrated by love in action toward God and others.
God gives us great joy and perfect peace as we trust Him and know Him better. He desires that our lives will be a beautiful testimony of His work in us, bringing us into His glory!
