God (Triune)
There is only one true God. God is omnipotent (all-powerful),
omnipresent (present in all places at the same time), and omniscient (knowing all things). He is the sovereign God. God exists, simultaneously and eternally, and reveals Himself to us as one in three distinct personalities biblically called the ‘Godhead’: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. God is without division of essence, nature, mind, or will. We believe that the economy of God moves in concert executing the will of God the Father, fulfilled by Christ the Son, by the power of the Holy Spirit.

I Peter 1:2; II Corinthians 13:14
God the Father
God as Father reigns with providential care over His universe, His creatures, and the flow of the stream of human history according to the purposes of His grace. He is all powerful, all knowing, all loving, and all wise. God is Father in truth to those who become children of God through faith in Jesus Christ. He is fatherly in His attitude toward all men.

Jesus Christ the Son
Jesus Christ is the eternal and only begotten Son of God. He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He died on the cross and in His substitutionary death He made provision for the redemption of men from sin. God raised him from the dead, he appeared unto His disciples, and ascended into heaven and is now exalted at the right hand of God where He is the One Mediator, our High Priest and Advocate.

The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God, complete and divine. Through illumination He enables men to understand and receive truth. He inspired men of old to write the scriptures. The ministry of the Holy Spirit is to exalt the Lord Jesus Christ, to convict men of sin, regenerate the redeemed sinner, indwell, guide, instruct, and empower the believer for Godly living, worship and service. He enlightens and empowers the believer and the church in worship, evangelism, and service.

About The Bible
The Bible is the infallible Word of God, that it is Holy and perfect instruction. It is divinely inspired, salvation is its end, and truth is its matter. It is food for the spirit that sustains us in all circumstances. All scripture is a testimony to Christ, who is Himself the focus of divine revelation. It is the supreme and final authority.
