CREATION AND THE FALL

We believe in the Biblical account of creation; that God created all things. That all three persons of the Godhead was active in creation, and that all things exist to bring glory to the Triune God. We believe that creation was a literal and historical event of God’s direct, immediate, creative act, and that all beings, both spiritual and physical are subject to His authority.

We believe that man and woman were created sinless beings in the image and likeness of God, for the purpose of glorifying God. By voluntary disobedience Adam fell from that sinless state and as a result all mankind are born into sin and are sinners by nature and by choice and therefore justly subject to judgment and death.
