Living a sinless life in perfect obedience to His Father, Jesus proclaimed God's reign in word and deed. We believe that the Son of God, while fully divine, became fully human through the virgin birth to save the world from sin. God's promises to Abraham and David are fulfilled in Jesus, the mediator of the New Covenant. We believe that God's plan to redeem fallen humanity and renew creation flows through His promises to the Jewish people. As such, our sinful ways have corrupted God's creation, resulting in discord to society and nature. As a result, every human is born in sin, leaving us totally depraved, alienated from God and destined to spiritual and physical death. We believe that our first parents forfeited their original righteousness when they succumbed to Satan's temptation and rebelled against God's revealed will. Their union as man and woman models God's design for marriage and perpetually stands as God's loving and righteous will for all sexual intimacy. We believe that God directly created Adam and Eve, the historical parents of the human race, distinct from the rest of creation in their bearing of God's image and their stewardship over creation.
They lead us to Jesus Christ, who shows us the Father, and rightly interpreted, they enable us to understand God's revelation in humanity, nature and history.
We believe that God has revealed Himself in the sixty-six canonical books of Scripture, which are verbally inspired, truth without error, and serve as our final authority in faith and life. We believe in one sovereign, omnipotent and fully omniscient God who eternally exists in three persons-Father, Son and Holy Spirit-who in love and for His glory created all things out of nothing and pronounced them good. It expresses our commitment to the key teachings of Scripture as interpreted through the ecumenical creeds of the early church, the chief insights of the Reformation and evangelical Christianity.
