We Believe
- Jesus is who he said he was. He is The Way, The Truth, and The Life! There is no other way to God, but through him. Jesus died to save us from the sin that entered the world through Adam and Eve by Dying on the Cross. With Faith in what Jesus did, we can come into a relationship with Him.
- The Father came down from heaven in the form of Jesus as 100% the created human being and died on the Cross. He rose 3 days later to conquer death and sin to show his power over it. Jesus said that it is better for Him to Go so he can send the Holy Spirit to Live in our Mortal body and guide us into all truth with the Power of Grace to Live Holy Transformed lives.
