Sanctification – perfect love for God and neighbor – is the goal of every Christian and the result of God’s work in our life.

We believe that it is possible in this life to attain true holiness in that we can be rid of all motivation other than love for God and people.

Through justification and sanctification, God removes the sinful nature and restores us to what we were created to be.

Of all the good things about the Christian life, one of the best is that we really do get to start again.

While we accept God’s salvation by faith, we believe God provides us assurance of his pardon through the Spirit’s witness to our spirit.

It was through the sacrificial death of Jesus on the cross that humanity was reconciled to God.

While righteousness doesn’t lead to salvation, salvation does lead us to righteousness.

The sacrifice of Christ was made for all people, and all are invited to accept and receive salvation.

Works do not lead to salvation, and are not a prerequisite to salvation. Instead, they flow from salvation.

We believe God judges as righteous those who repent, based not on their merits, but on the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.
