Scripture
I believe the Bible is the Word of God. Both the Old and New Testaments are inspired by the Holy Spirit. They are not just ancient writings; they are God’s actual communication to us. Scripture is true, reliable, and final. Everything we believe must be tested against what the Bible teaches. Traditions, opinions, or feelings cannot stand above it. I believe Scripture is the authority in everything related to life, faith, and salvation.
God
I believe there is one God. He exists eternally as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. He is not a force or an idea, but a real, personal being. God is holy. He is perfect. He created all things, holds all things together, and rules over everything. I believe He alone is worthy of worship and obedience.
Jesus Christ
I believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is both fully God and fully human. Born of the virgin Mary, He lived a perfect, sinless life. He was crucified not for His own guilt, but for ours. He willingly gave His life to pay for our sins. After His death, He physically rose from the dead and appeared to many witnesses. His resurrection proved that He is Lord. He now reigns at the right hand of the Father and will return in glory. Jesus is not one path among many. He is the only way to salvation.
Salvation
I believe salvation is a gift from God. It cannot be earned by good works, religious rituals, or personal effort. We are saved by God’s grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone. This means trusting in His sacrifice on the cross and surrendering our lives to Him. Real faith includes repentance—a turning away from sin and towards God. Those who believe are forgiven, made new, and adopted as God’s children.
The Church
I believe all true followers of Jesus are part of His Church. This is not just a building or an organization. It is His body. Local churches matter because believers are meant to gather, worship together, learn, and encourage one another. Through the Church, we share communion, baptism, and sound teaching. But the Church’s real head is Christ, not any human leader.
The Christian Life
Being a Christian is not just agreeing with certain ideas. It is a life fully surrendered to Christ. We are called to holiness. That means turning away from sin, praying regularly, reading Scripture, and obeying God. It is not always easy, but God gives us His Spirit to help us. A true believer is someone whose life is being changed by Christ. We are called to speak the truth in love and to show grace without compromising that truth.
The Return of Christ
I believe Jesus will return physically, personally, and visibly. When He comes, He will judge the living and the dead. Those who rejected Him will face eternal separation from God. Those who belong to Him will be welcomed into eternal life with Him. Until that day comes, we are called to stay faithful, obedient, and ready.
Christ Alone
In everything I teach and believe, Christ is enough. He is the center of my faith, the reason for this website, and the hope I hold onto. No other person, no other religion, and no other teaching can replace Him.
