We affirm the Apostles and Nicene Creeds. We affirm the use of creeds and confessions of faith to express the teaching of the Scriptures as maintained by the People of God throughout all age.
Like the Apostle Paul and the rest of the Church, we believe the reality that God is completely holy, absolutely just, and infinitely merciful. In the community of the Trinity, God demonstrates these qualities from eternity and then reveals them to His Creation in order to relate to it.
The Son of God, Jesus Christ, took on human flesh – equally God, equally man. He was born of the Virgin Mary by the power of the Holy Spirit and chose to humble Himself to the point of obedience, taking on human form to be like His Creation, to bring men to God by His grace, through Himself, the Truth. Jesus received the Holy Spirit and everything that He did was led by and empowered by Him from the beginning of the Gospel declaration to Jesusʼ resurrection. The Holy Spiritʼs primary work is to reveal that same Jesus to the world.
Not only does the Spirit testify to the Truth about Jesus, but Jesus has given a mission to the Church to testify to the Truth of His Gospel in the entire world. Every believer has a direct command and call from Jesus to ensure that the Gospel is preached, and to push it to every corner of the world.
God, by His grace, gives people faith in Christ, that brings their soul from spiritual death to spiritual life. They are repentant, leaving behind the old sinful nature to pursue and be changed in radical ways by the new Spirit-dominated nature, to become more like Jesus.
This work of God will continue until the Last Day, when Jesus will return from the right hand of God and judge all people, living and dead, and take His place as the King over Godʼs creation. Those who are the people of God will be renewed to live a life of everlasting blessing and those who did not turn away from sin and escape the bondage to Satan will be cut off from God, to experience the punishment their sins have earned. At that time, all creation will be made new and God Himself will live with His people.
