Our Beliefs

The Bible is the Word of God, written under His inspiration word by word, and is the complete and only written divine revelation of God to man.

(2 Tim. 3:16; Deut. 4:2; 12:32; Prov. 30:5-6; Rev. 22:18-19)

There is one God, who is triune—the Father, the Son, and the Spirit—co-existing and coinhering in three persons, or hypostases, distinct but never separate, from eternity to eternity.

(Deut. 6:4; 1 Cor. 8:4; Isa. 45:5; Matt. 28:19; Matt. 3:16-17; 2 Cor. 13:14; John 14:10-11)

Christ, the only begotten Son of God, even God Himself, became a genuine man through incarnation, having both the divine and human natures, the two natures being combined in one person and being preserved distinctly without confusion or change and without forming a third nature.

(John 1:18; 3:16; 1:1, 14; Rom. 9:5; 1 Tim. 2:5)

Christ died for our sins and was raised bodily from the dead, has been exalted to the right hand of God as Lord of all, and will return as the Bridegroom for His bride, the church, and as the King of kings to rule over the nations.

(1 Cor. 15:3-4; Acts 4:10; Rom. 8:34; Acts 5:31; 10:36; John 3:29; Rev. 19:7; 11:15; 19:16)

Salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone and in His completed work, resulting in our justification before God and in our being born of God to be His children.

(Eph. 2:5, 8; Rom. 3:24, 28; Gal. 2:16; John 1:12-13)

The church as the unique Body of Christ, the issue of the work of Christ, is composed of all genuine believers in Christ and, according to the New Testament revelation, is manifested in time and space in local churches, each of which includes all the believers in a given city, regardless of where they meet or how they may otherwise identify themselves.

(Eph. 1:22-23; Rom. 12:5; 1 Cor. 12:12; 1 Cor. 1:2; 1 Thes. 1:1; Rev. 1:11)

All the believers in Christ will participate in the divine blessings in the New Jerusalem in the new heaven and new earth for eternity.

(Rev. 21:1—22:5)
