What is the Gospel of Grace? You can’t earn it and you don’t deserve it; It is a free gift.
Grace is God’s unmerited favor towards mankind. We trust that as believers God delights in us! Nothing we do can make us more acceptable to or loved by Him. As such, we do not work or serve in order to earn acceptance and love. Instead, we work from a position of rest, overflowing with the amazing LIFE we have received.
So what do you believe?
Our beliefs are founded on the infallible written Word of God, the Bible, and all 66 books contained in both the Old and New Testaments.
- We believe there is one true God consisting of three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
- That Jesus Christ came to this earth, born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died to forgive our sins, rose again to bring us new life in Him.
- That the only way to heaven is through Jesus Christ, and that there is no other way.
- That Jesus Christ will return to this earth--personally, visible, and bodily--to consummate history and fulfill the plan of God.
- That Christ sent the Holy Spirit to us to reveal and glorify Jesus Christ and apply the saving work of Christ to men. He convicts and draws sinners to Christ and gives them new life in Christ. The Holy Spirit continually indwells believers from the moment of spiritual birth, baptizes them into the body of Christ, and seals them until the day of Redemption.
- That man was originally created in the image of God. He sinned by disobeying God and has been alienated from God. As a result of this sin, man’s nature is corrupt, and he is unable to please God without the Blood of Jesus Christ as covering.
- Salvation is the undeserved free gift of God’s grace, and not the result of any thing man can do whether in works, goodness, or religious ceremony.
- That Jesus Christ is the head of the Church, His Body, which is composed of all men, living and dead, who have been joined to Him through saving faith.
- That at the moment of physical death, the believer enters into eternal, conscious fellowship with the Lord and awaits the resurrection of the body to everlasting glory and blessing.
