What We Believe: 

Very briefly...

We believe that the Bible and the Lord Jesus Christ are the final, inspired, inerrant and living Word of  God to mankind for all time and the only rule for true faith and  practice.  

We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal and divine Son of  God, who took on the form
of a man, being born of a virgin, lived a sinless life  and performed miracles during His earthly ministry.

We believe that Jesus Christ willingly offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of His  people and that He died as a substitute for them on the cross, taking upon  Himself their sins and the judgment of God once and for all.

We believe  that Jesus was buried and on the first day of the week rose bodily from being  dead.  After appearing to many witnesses, Jesus ascended to heaven where He  sovereignly rules over all the affairs of mankind. One day He will return in all His heavenly glory with His angels at which time He will judge mankind.  


We believe that every person is born a sinner, spiritually dead and is  in rebellion against God. Because of this, every person is in need of a Savior.  Due to our spiritual condition, there is nothing that anyone can do or  contribute in any way to earn their own salvation, it is a free gift of God's  grace.  Therefore to know the salvation of God in Jesus Christ, a person must be  born again spiritually by  Holy Spirit that they then might believe and be  saved.  

These are some of the tenants of the Reformed Faith as  summarized in the Westminster Confession and its Catechisms. 

A more detailed summary of what we believe as a Church is found  in the historic
Westminster Confession of  Faith and the Westminster Larger and  Shorter Catechisms.
