Statement of Faith
We affirm that eternal life with God and salvation from sin and death are found through faith in Jesus Christ. People come to such a faith through the message of the Bible, which is inspired by God, and contains the primary and essential revelation that God wants us to have. While it is possible for people to know God and trust in Jesus without having the Bible itself, we believe that the Bible is invaluable in the development of one’s faith and personal relationship with God. Therefore every person should have access to the entire Bible in his or her own language.
We also accept common Christian beliefs, as, for instance, expressed in the Nicene Creed.
