We believe in God’s only Son, Jesus Christ

We believe in God’s only Son, Jesus Christ,
fully human, fully God,
the Word through whom all things were made.
Jesus came to the earth to teach the Truth and to proclaim the reign of God,
preaching good news to the poor,
release to the captives,
healing for the sick,
and forgiveness of sins.
He called all people to repent and believe the Gospel,
the Good News that salvation is found in Him alone.
He was crucified for us,
and on the third day God raised Him from the dead,
defeating the powers of evil and death
and securing for humankind forgiveness of sins
by grace alone through faith alone in Him alone.
He instructed us to observe the Lord’s Supper in His memory
so that by participating in His body and blood
we regularly commune with Him and with one another.
He ascended to the Father, where He is now our priest and advocate in whose name we pray.
He is Head of the Church under which our congregation governs itself.
He will return to judge the living and the dead
and to deliver us from death to life eternal with God in heaven.
He invited us to join Him as his obedient disciples
in the work of His ministry, the proclamation of the Gospel,
and the forming of disciples.
