Members of this web site do not need to believe the following statements.  These statements simply reflect the belief of the owners of the web site. 

We believe...

  1. The Scriptures - The Holy Bible was written by men divinely inspired and is God's revelation of Himself to man. It reveals the principles by which God judges us.

  2. God - God is an intelligent, spiritual, and personal Being, the Creator, Redeemer, Preserver, and Ruler of the universe. He is all powerful and all knowing; and His perfect knowledge extends to all things, past, present, and future. To Him we owe the highest love, reverence, and obedience.

  3. Jesus - Jesus, the eternal son of God, left the glories of heaven to become fully human, able to be tempted, but choosing not to sin in order to die as a perfect sacrifice for the sins of mankind.

  4. The Holy Spirit - The third member of the Godhead is the Spirit of God. He intercedes for mankind before God; He is our earnest of our inheritance; and He leads people to all truth, among other exalted responsibilities.

  5. Man - Man is the special creation of God, made in His own image. God created them male and female as the crowning work of His creation. In the beginning man was innocent of sin and was endowed by his Creator with freedom of choice. Man sinned against God and brought sin into the human race. Only the grace of God can bring man into His holy fellowship and enable man to fulfill the creative purpose of God. The sacredness of human personality is evident in that God created man in His own image.

  6. Salvation - Salvation involves the redemption of the whole man, and is offered freely to all who have faith believing they are sinners and deserve eternal punishment but have a repentant heart and want to accept Christ's free gift of forgiveness and eternal life and make their Savior Jesus Christ, who by His own blood obtained eternal redemption for the believer.  Those who truly believe and are saved, are saved by grace through faith and not by works.  Their desire to obey and live for God is not because they want to work their way to heaven, but rather because they are thankful for what Christ has done for them and so they want to please God with their life, and so they seek to obey God and do God's will and learn from the Bible how to live a life that says "thank you" to God.
