  • We believe that his Word tells us all sin is rebellion against God

  • We believe that God, in his mercy, sent his Son to die for us

(John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.)

  • We believe in the historical birth, death and resurrection of Christ

(Isaiah 53:5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.)
