The Bible

We believe the Bible is the inspired and inerrant word of God. We believe the Holy Scriptures are the only authority for what the Church believes, teaches, and practices. We believe our purpose in life is to glorify the Lord. We believe we should strive for righteous and holy living. We acknowledge that our only righteousness is in Christ. We believe the Lord is most honored and most pleased when we acknowledge the authority of His Holy Scriptures and apply its teachings to our lives.

The Bible is the most important book ever written. It can also seem like the most difficult to understand, which can be discouraging. Many of us have biases and many people are satisfied with whatever they’ve been taught. Many churches hold up their creeds and confessions above the Bible itself. While it is a blessing to have parents,  pastors, teachers, and others to instruct and guide us, each of us also has a duty to study the Bible personally. As you study your Bible, do so with prayer and a sincere desire to seek the truth. From the two links at the top of this page, you can read our articles of faith, as well as brief articles on some of the fundamental principles we believe the Bible to teach. We hope these articles will be a help to you in your studies and we are thankful you have visited our site.
