Biblical Core Values
Scripture
II Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine for reproof for
correction for instruction in righteousness. The Bible is the inerrant and infallible record of Gods revelation to humanity and it is the only sufficient source of appeal on matters relating to the Christian faith.
God
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:312:2 And God saw everything
that he had made and behold it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. Thus the heavens and the earth were finished and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. Genesis 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. John 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made. There is one and only one living true God. The historical account of Genesis decrees that He is the personal and direct Creator of all that exists including the first human beings Adam and Eve. To Him we owe the highest love reverence and obedience.
Jesus Christ
John 14:6 Jesus said to them I am the way the truth and the life: no man comes to the Father but by me. God made provision through Christ for the redemption of sinful humanity by His substitutionary atonement on the cross and He alone is sufficient as Savior.
Salvation
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life. Salvation involves Gods gracious redemption of individuals and is offered freely to all who accept Jesus Christ as personal Lord and Savior by repentance and faith.
Life of the Believer
Romans 12:2 And do not be conformed to this world but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind that ye
may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Christians are to be consistent with Scripture in their character and conduct.
Evangelism and Missions
Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me
both in Jerusalem and in all Judea and in Samaria and unto the uttermost part of the earth. It is the privilege and
duty of every Christian to share the Gospel of Christ personally and by all other methods in harmony with the Gospel.
