Our Beliefs
Bible Inspired
We believe that the Bible is the inspired Word of God and that in its original form is without error. We believe that the Bible is the final and sole authority for all Christian life and practice.
Personhood of God
We believe in the eternal existence and Personhood of God. We believe that God is One in essence, but has revealed Himself in three distinct personalities – God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
God the Son
We believe that Jesus Christ is God the Son. We believe in His preexistence, His incarnation, His virgin birth, His physical death, His bodily resurrection from the grave, His ascension into heaven, and His imminent return to receive His church and to one day rule on earth for 1,000 years.
We Are Born Sinners
We believe that all people are born sinners and are therefore separated from God and His holiness.
You Cannot Save Yourself
We believe that people cannot save themselves and make right their relationship with God through good deeds.
Faith in Jesus Christ
We believe that faith in Jesus Christ is the only way by which people can be saved.
Resurrection of the Human Body
We believe in the resurrection of the human body, the eternal existence of all people either in heaven or hell and in divine judgment and rewards.
Ministry of the Holy Spirit
We believe in the ministry of the Holy Spirit who convicts, regenerates, baptizes, indwells, fills, enlightens, seals, and empowers believers for godly living.
We Are The Body
We believe that the church is the spiritual body of which Christ is the Head.
One Body, Many Members
We believe that there is one church and one body of Christ made up of many different people, denominations, cultures, worship, and ministry styles. Therefore, we seek unity within the body of Christ on essential doctrinal positions, and liberty on non-essentials.
Zion Campuses
There are 4 physical church locations and our online Anywhere campus.
