What We Believe About God

God

We believe that God is love.  He is triune in nature and found in the personhood of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. God is perfect, never sinning, infinite, forgiving and always with us.

Trinity

The Christian Godhead is one God represented in three persons:  Father, Son and Holy Spirit.  God is immortal, all-powerful, all-knowing, above all, and ever present.

Father

The Father is the head of the triune God. We believe He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to save us from our sin and to reveal Himself to us. God is the eternal source of all love, and all life.

Son

Jesus Christ is the Son of God.  He became a human being to save us from the penalty of sin.  He is our teacher, advocate and redeemer.  He gives us the chance to learn from our mistakes and to prepare for heaven. Jesus willingly came to earth, from heaven, to serve as the sacrificial atonement that was required by God for the forgiveness of our sins.

Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit is the third person of the triune God, convicting, leading, and guiding our understanding of God’s commands, bringing encouragement in times of discouragement, and leading us in a righteous and holy lifestyle.  We believe that the Holy Spirit was active with the Father and Son in creation, incarnation, and redemption.  The Holy Spirit inspired the writers of the Bible.
