WE BELIEVE that Jesus is God and man, the redeemer of mankind (I Timothy 2:5, Galatians 3:13, St. John 20:24-29)

WE BELIEVE that all men are sinners and separated from God but That God demonstrated His love for us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us. (Romans 3:23, Romans 5:8)

WE BELIEVE that everyone must repent of their sin (have a change of mind and turn from) in order to be in right relationship with God. (Acts 2:38, Acts 3:19, Acts 17:30)

WE BELIEVE that here is no other name under heaven given among men where by we must be saved. (Philippians 2:5-11)
