22 This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.
Romans 3:22-24 (NASB1995)

 

The Bible

14 But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, 15 and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17 so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. - 2 Timothy 3:14-17

God

We believe in one living and true God, who, being one in essence, exists eternally in three distinct persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The Persons of the Godhead, or Trinity possess the same divine nature, attributes, and perfections, are equally worthy of honor, trust, and obedience, and carry out different functions in God's dealings with mankind.
See: Deuteronomy 6, Matthew 28, Luke 3, 2 Corinthians 13

The Father

We believe the first Person of the Trinity orders and directs all things according His own purpose, pleasure, and grace. He sovereignly decreed all things that come to pass for His own glory. He graciously involves Himself in the affairs of mankind, hears and answers prayer, and saves from sin and death all who, by grace, come to Him through faith in Jesus Christ.
See: Matthew 6, John 5, Ephesians 1

The Son

We believe Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, conceived of the Holy Spirit, and born of the Virgin Mary. Fully God and fully man, Jesus Christ surrendered nothing of His deity during His earthly life. Jesus lived a sinless life. By His own death on the cross, His burial, and His literal, bodily resurrection, He accomplished our redemption by substituting Himself for us and receiving the punishment that we should have received. Jesus is the only means of salvation. We believe that Jesus Christ is the visible image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation, the Creator and Sustainer of heaven and earth, and the Head of the church. We believe the Lord Jesus Christ is now in heaven, exalted to the right hand of God where, as High Priest to His people, He serves as our Advocate and intercedes for us.
See: Luke 1, John 1, John 14, Romans 3, Romans 4, 1 Corinthians 15, Colossians 1, Colossians 2, Hebrews 1, Hebrews 2, Hebrews 4, Revelation 19; Revelation 20, Acts 4, Philippians 2, 1 Timothy 2, 1 John 2

The Holy Spirit

We believe the Holy Spirit, the third Person of the Trinity, executes the will of God in the world of men. It is the Spirit of God who convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment. He regenerates the elect, baptizing them into the body of Christ. He indwells and transforms individual believers, empowering them to live Christ-like lifestyles and endowing them with spiritual gifts so that they are able to accomplish distinct ministries planned beforehand by God the Father.
See: 1 Corinthians 12, John 3, John 14, John 16, Ephesians 1, Galatians 5, Romans 8

The Nature Of Man

We believe humanity was created innocent in the image of God to enjoy fellowship with God and to fulfill God's will on this earth. By willful disobedience to the clearly revealed will of God, man sinned; as a result all men are spiritually dead (separated from God). This fall of man into sin is a once-for-all historical fact. Sin's spiritually deadening effect spread to all people - as each individual is born with a sinful nature and sins habitually in thought, word, and deed. This fall made mankind into enemies of God. Man can do nothing to merit God's favor, and as such, is in need of salvation brought through Jesus alone.
See: Genesis 1, Genesis 2, Genesis 3, Romans 1, Romans 3, Romans 5, Romans 6, Ephesians 2

Salvation

We believe that Jesus Christ sacrificed His life on the cross to pay for our sins. Though we all were once rightly convicted and spiritually dead because of our rebellion against God, all who trust in Jesus are declared innocent by the Father on the grounds of Jesus' death and resurrection. This salvation is a sovereign gift of God and is received by man through personal faith in Jesus Christ and His sacrifice for sin. There is no other way by which mankind may be reconciled to God. We are justified by grace, through faith and not from works.
See: John 1, John 3, John 16, John 5, John 14, John 21; Acts 4, Acts 13, Romans 6, Romans 3, 1 Corinthians 15, Galatians 3, Ephesians 1, Ephesian 2, Titus 3, Hebrews 2

The Future

We believe in the physical, personal return of Jesus Christ to judge the living and the dead. This is the believer's "Blessed Hope" — the next great event of salvation history for which all who love Jesus eagerly await. Though the timing of Christ's return is a mystery, the fact of it is as certain as His first coming. We believe in the resurrection of the dead and life everlasting in the presence of God for those who believe. Those who do not believe will be raised to conscious and everlasting punishment in hell.
See: Matthew 16, Matthew 24, Matthew 25, John 14, Acts 2, 1 Corinthians 15, 1 Thessalonians 4, 2 Timothy 4, Hebrews 9
