TO LOVE...

Jesus Christ taught His disciples that the most important goal was to love God. This is number one over all other commandments, even before our service unto God. So, our vision and daily goal is to LOVE God with all our heart, and with all our soul, and with all our mind.

TO GROW...

We accomplish this by growing in our knowledge of God through the reading and studying of the Bible. Jesus prayed in John chapter 17:17: "Sanctify them through thy truth: they word is truth."

TO HELP...

As we Love God with all our heart, we will want to GROW into the image of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, so that we can keep the two greatest commandments: "...Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'" Matt 22:37-39 (NIV)

To LOVE, to GROW, to HELP is the passion and purpose of our ministry!

That the only true basis of Christian fellowship is Christ's love (Agape), which is greater that any differences we possess, and without which we have no right to claim ourselves Christians.

That the worship of God should be spiritual. Therefore, we remain flexible and yielded to the leading of the Holy Spirit to direct our worship.

That the worship of God should be inspirational. Therefore, we give great place to music in our worship.

That the worship of God should be intelligent. Therefore, our services are designed with great emphasis upon the teaching of the Word of God that he might instruct us how He should be worshipped.

That the worship of God should be fruitful. Therefore, we look for His love in our lives as the supreme manifestation that we have been truly worshipping Him.

In the fundamental doctrines of orthodox evangelical Christianity.

In the inerrancy of Scripture. We believe that the Bible --Old and New Testaments --is the inspired, infallible Word of God.

That God is eternally existent in three separate persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

That God the Father is the personal, transcendant, and sovereign Creator of all things.

That Jesus Christ is fully God and fully human, that He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, provided for the atonement of our sins by his vicarious death on the Cross, was bodily resurrected by the power of the Holy Spirit, ascended back to the right hand of God the Father, and ever lives to make intercession for us.

That after Jesus ascended to Heaven, He poured out His Holy Spirit on the believers in Jerusalem, enabling them to fulfill His command to preach the Gospel to the entire world, an obligation shared by all believers today.

That all people are by nature separated from God and responsible for their own sin, but that salvation, redemption, and forgiveness are freely offered to all by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. When a person repents of sin and accepts Jesus Christ as personal Savior and Lord, trusting Him to save, that person is immediately born again and sealed by the Holy Spirit, all his/her sins are forgiven and that person becomes a child of God, destined to spend eternity with the Lord.

That the gifts of the Holy Spirit mentioned in the Scriptures, are valid for today if they are exercised within the Scriptural guidelines. We as believers are to covet the best gifts, seeking to exercise them in love, that the whole Body of Christ might be edified. We believe that love is more important than the most spectacular gifts, and without this love all exercise of spiritual gifts is worthless.

That church government should be simplistic , rather than a complex bureaucracy, and we depnd on the Holy Spirit to lead, rather than on fleshly promotion.

In the pre-tribulation rapture of the church, and that the second coming of Christ with His saints to rule on the earth will be personal, pre-millenial, and visible. this motivates us to holy living, heartfelt worship, committed service, diligent study of God's Word, regular fellowship, and participation in adult baptism by immersion and Holy Comunion.

In teaching the Word of God in such a way that its message can be applied to an individuals' life, leading that person to greater maturity in Christ.
