"Witnessing to the glory of God in the gospel of Jesus Christ for all who believe; growing mature believers through the ministry of the word, sacraments, and prayer; loving each other while looking for the return of Jesus in glory." We believe that the Bible is the inspired, inerrant Word of God, that God's sovereign plan controls all of history, and that salvation from sin and death is only possi
ble through faith in Jesus Christ. By His substitutionary death on the cross, God's just wrath against sin was satisfied and we who believe in Jesus are declared righteous in God's sight. We now live by the power of the Holy Spirit in accord with God's will and lead transformed lives to the glory of God, looking in hope for the glorious return of our Savior from heaven. At that time the dead will be raised, the wicked who have not believed in Jesus will be condemned to an eternal hell, and those who are saved will be raised to new life and live eternally in the presence of God.
