We believe:
- that the Bible (both Old and New Testaments) is the Word of God and the final rule for faith, doctrine and conduct.
- in the sovereignty of the Word of God above all interpretations. And our most common question is "Where is it written?"
- that salvation is found in Christ alone, and that without Him we are lost.
- that each person was planned and formed by God to be loved by Him, and that He wants our love in return. That is the only way to live an abundant life on earth and have eternal life in heaven.
- our unity is found in Christ alone. Our church a fellowship of believers that recognizes, yet transcends, theological disagreements. We observe the freedom to disagree on the "nonessentials" but we are all connected and strengthened by our central belief in the final authority of the Bible as the Word of God.
- that the Word of God teaches all Christians to share in the task of reaching those who don't know Christ. Our primary purpose is to share the gospel with every person everywhere, and we are committed to discipling believers in Christ. This belief is evident by the sending of missionaries from our own church, our support of missions worldwide and our many community outreach programs.
