We Believe....

      We Believe The one, true, TRIUNE God reveals Himself as Father, Son and Holy Spirit, three equal persons in one eternal Godhead.

We Believe Holy Scripture is the inspired, inerrant record  of  God’s  revelation to man and the only norm for what we believe,  teach and  confess.

We Believe All Christian doctrine is rightly understood in the dynamic of Law and Gospel.

We Believe The Sacraments  (Baptism and the Lord’s Supper)  are  God’s acts of grace by which He  brings  the  blessings  of  Christ’s  death and resurrection to bear on human souls.

We Believe Since the Fall of Adam, all people are  conceived and born in sin and would be lost forever were it not for  God’s gracious act of salvation in Jesus Christ.

We Believe Jesus Christ, God’s  only Son, is  both truly God and fully Man; by His life,  death and resurrection, Christ has won the forgiveness of sins for all people.

We Believe Salvation  is by  grace through faith in Jesus Christ; this gift makes of us  new creations, empowers us with the varied gifts of the Spirit, and constrains us to live  in  love and service in the Church.

We Believe The  Holy Spirit alone is responsible for our coming to faith and our growth in faith.
