All to Thee
Statement of Faith
We stand firm in the truth that the entire Bible is inerrant, God-breathed and useful for teaching the truth, convicting of sin, correcting faults, and for training in right living, that anyone who belongs to God may be fully equipped for every good work. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)
​
We believe God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit are co-equal; a trinity of One God. (Matthew 28:19; Genesis 1:26)
​
We believe all have sinned and do not meet God’s standard of righteousness, thereby deserving an eternal separation from God. But Jesus took the consequence for our sin and gave us His righteous standing before God. (Romans 3:23; Corinthians 5:21)
​
We recognize that salvation and being born again as new creations, are gifts by grace through faith in Jesus' sacrifice and resurrection and not by our own goodness or efforts. (Ephesians 2:8-9; Romans 3:28; 2 Corinthians 5:17)
​
We believe that our future lies in either an eternity with our Triune God, a place of no more tears, pain or sorrow, filled with God’s glory (Revelation 21:4 & 14) or an eternity separated from Him, choosing judgement, weeping, depressing darkness, torment and gnashing of teeth. (Revelation 14:11; Matthew 13:42; Matthew 25:41)
​
We understand that at salvation, God the Holy Spirit, comes into us and empowers us to do His will. (Zechariah 4:6; Acts 1:8)
​
We believe that all human life is sacred and created by God in His image. Human life is of inestimable worth in all its dimensions, including pre-born babies, the aged, the physically or mentally challenged, and every other stage or condition from conception through natural death. (Psalm 139:1-16)
​
We believe that God creates each person as male and female. These two distinct, complementary genders together reflect the image and nature of God. (Genesis 1:26- 27)
​
We believe that the term “marriage” has only one meaning: the uniting of one man and one woman in a single, exclusive union, as delineated in Scripture. (Genesis 2:18-25)
​
We believe that God intends sexual intimacy to occur only between a man and a woman who are married to each other and that God has commanded that no intimate sexual activity be engaged in outside of this marriage covenant. (1 Corinthians 6:18; 7:2-5; Hebrews 13:4)
​
We believe that any form of sexual immorality (including adultery, fornication, homosexual behavior, bisexual conduct, bestiality, incest, or pornography) or attempt to change one’s sex, or disagreement with one’s biological sex, is sinful and offensive to God. (Matthew 15:18-20; 1 Corinthians 6:9-10)
​
We believe that God offers redemption and restoration to all who confess and forsake their sin, seeking His mercy and forgiveness through Jesus Christ. (Acts 3:19-21; Romans 10:9-10; 1 Corinthians 6:9-11)
​
We believe that every person must be afforded compassion, love, kindness, respect, and dignity. Hateful and harassing behavior or attitudes directed toward any individual are to be rebuked. (Mark 12:29-31; Luke 6:35-36; 1 John 4:7-8)
