We believe in God, the Creator of all things, who is love, light, and life. God is present, personal, and always inviting us into a deeper relationship.
Genesis 1:1 (NIV):
“In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.”
This affirms God as the origin of all creation. Everything begins with Him.
Colossians 1:16 (NIV):
“For in Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible… all things have been created through Him and for Him.”
This ties God’s creative power directly to Christ, showing continuity in the Trinity.
1 John 4:8 (NIV):
“Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.”
This is not just an attribute—love is God’s very nature.
1 John 1:5 (NIV):
“God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all.”
Light represents purity, truth, and revelation—God is the source of all clarity.
John 1:4 (NIV):
“In Him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind.”
Life itself flows from God, and through Christ, it becomes the light that guides us.
Revelation 3:20 (NIV):
“Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.”
Relationship with God is always by invitation, never coercion.
We believe in Jesus Christ, the Son of God, whose life, death, and resurrection reveal the fullness of God’s love and the path to a restored relationship with Him. Through Jesus, we see what it means to love, serve, and live with purpose.
John 14:9 (NIV):
“Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father.”
Jesus’ life reveals God’s heart—His compassion, truth, and grace made visible.
John 3:16 (NIV):
“For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son…”
Jesus is the expression of God’s deep, sacrificial love for us.
1 Corinthians 15:20–22 (NIV):
“Christ has indeed been raised from the dead… For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.”
Resurrection is the proof of God’s power and the promise of our future.
John 13:15 (NIV):
“I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you.”
Jesus modeled servanthood when He washed His disciples’ feet.
Mark 10:45 (NIV):
“For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.”
True greatness is found in serving others.
We believe in the Holy Spirit, God’s active presence in the world, guiding, comforting, and empowering us to live in truth, freedom, and grace.
Romans 8:11 (NIV):
“And if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you…”
The same Spirit that empowered resurrection now empowers our lives.
John 16:13 (NIV):
“But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth.”
The Spirit leads us—not by force, but with clarity and conviction into what is true.
Romans 8:26 (NIV):
“The Spirit helps us in our weakness… the Spirit Himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.”
In pain, confusion, or grief, the Spirit meets us with deep, wordless comfort.
2 Timothy 1:7 (NIV):
“For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.”
Empowerment through the Spirit includes courage, love, and wise living.
Galatians 5:1 (NIV):
“It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again…”
Where the Spirit is, there is liberty.
2 Corinthians 3:17 (NIV):
“Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.”
God’s Spirit always moves us toward freedom, not fear.
Galatians 5:22–23 (NIV):
“The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.”
Life in the Spirit is marked by grace-filled character, not condemnation.
We believe in the Bible as a sacred collection of writings inspired by God, offering wisdom, guidance, and insight for living a life of love, faith, and integrity.
2 Timothy 3:16–17 (NIV):
“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.”
The Bible is not just ancient literature; it is divinely inspired and deeply relevant.
Psalm 119:105 (NIV):
“Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.”
The Bible illuminates our journey—showing us the next right step.
James 1:22 (NIV):
“Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.”
Scripture is not just to be studied but lived.
Matthew 22:37–40 (NIV):
“Love the Lord your God with all your heart… and love your neighbor as yourself. All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
At its core, the Bible leads us to love.
We believe every person is created in the image of God, inherently valuable and capable of choosing a life of love, faith, and meaning.
Psalm 139:13–14 (NIV):
“For You created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made.”
Each person is uniquely and wonderfully made—known, seen, and loved by God before birth.
Luke 12:6–7 (NIV):
“Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God… you are worth more than many sparrows.”
Jesus affirms our value with tender clarity: You are remembered and cherished.
Deuteronomy 30:19–20 (NIV):
“This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses… that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live.”
We’re invited to make choices that align with love, faith, and purpose.
Galatians 3:28 (NIV):
“There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.”
There are no second-class image-bearers. Every life has equal value in God’s eyes.
We believe salvation is a gift of grace, received freely through faith, not earned through works. It is an invitation to know God, not a burden to perform.
Ephesians 2:8–9 (NIV):
“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast.”
Grace means unearned favor. Salvation is not a reward for performance, but a gift we receive, not a wage we earn.
Romans 3:22–24 (NIV):
“This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe… for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.”
Faith is the open hand that receives the gift. It’s not about what we do, but about trusting what Jesus has already done.
Matthew 11:28–30 (NIV):
“Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest… For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”
Jesus invites us to enjoy rest, not pressure. The way of grace frees us from the weight of proving ourselves.
We believe in the freedom of will, and that faith must be chosen, not forced. God’s love never demands, only invites—and our response must come from the heart.
Revelation 3:20 (NIV):
“Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with Me.”
Jesus doesn’t barge in. He waits, invites, and honors our choice.
Romans 2:4 (NIV):
“Or do you show contempt for the riches of His kindness, forbearance and patience, not realizing that God’s kindness is intended to lead you to repentance?”
It’s not fear or pressure that changes hearts, but God’s kindness and patience.
1 Samuel 16:7 (NIV):
“The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”
God desires an honest, heartfelt relationship, not conformity.
We believe the Church is the people, not the place—a diverse and growing body united in Christ, called to love God and love one another.
1 Corinthians 12:27 (NIV):
“Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.”
Every person in Christ makes up His Church—we are not spectators in a building but participants in His Body.
Acts 2:46–47 (NIV):
“Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together… And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.”
The early Church met in homes, not cathedrals. Their community was marked by relationships, worship, and shared life.
Matthew 22:37–39 (NIV):
“‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart…’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”
These are the guiding pillars of the Church’s mission and identity.
John 13:34–35 (NIV):
“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another.”
Love is the mark of true Church.
We believe in living out our faith through action
James 2:17 (NIV):
“In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.”
True faith moves us. It cannot remain passive as it expresses itself in how we live.
Matthew 5:16 (NIV):
“Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”
Our actions are not for show—they’re reflections of God’s love and character.
Micah 6:8 (NIV):
“He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.”
Our active, lived-out faith is rooted in justice, compassion, and humility.
1 John 3:18 (NIV):
“Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.”
Love is more than sentiment—it shows up in real, tangible ways.
