About
TRINITY
Welcome to Trinity Church! We hope you take a few minutes to look around and get aquainted with Trinity Church and the mission God has planted in our hearts. It's our prayer that you would be lead to come and join our community of believers as we strive to experience His presence, express His love and explore His Word!
Essentially, Trinity Church is people—people whose highest purpose is to know and love God, and then to translate that love into caring relationships with each other, through which we can fulfill our mission to reach out to the lost. People of all races and denominations are welcome among us. We are contemporary, so as to be relevant to our culture, yet uncompromising in our commitment to the Bible as our standard for life.

BELIEFS
+ We believe that the Bible is the inspired Word of God (2 Timothy 3:15-17).
+ We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy
Spirit (Deuteronomy 6:4; Luke 3:21,22).
+ We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His atoning
death, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His future return to this earth
in power and glory (John 1:1; Matthew 1:23; 1 Peter 2:22).
+ We believe although created good and upright, mankind transgressed God's command and fell into a condition
of moral and spiritual depravity (Genesis 3:6; Romans 5:12-19).
+ We believe the only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance and faith in the precious blood of
Jesus (Luke 24:47; Romans 5:6-17). When an individual repents of sin and trusts Jesus as Savior, the Holy Spirit
comes into that individual and he/she is born again (John 3:3; 2 Corinthians 5:17). The indwelling presence of
the Holy Spirit enables the believer to live a holy life (Romans 8; Galatians 5:16-18).
+ We believe the Baptism in the Holy Spirit is given to born again believers as empowerment for Christian
service (Acts 1:8). This experience is accompanied with speaking in tongues and other supernatural
manifestations (Acts 2:1-4; 1 Corinthians 12:7-11).
+ We believe the redemptive work of Christ on the cross provides healing for the human body in answer to
believing prayer (Isaiah 53:4,5; Matthew 8:16, 17; James 5:14).
+ We believe Christ instituted two ordinances for the Church: The Lord's Supper and water baptism by
immersion (1 Corinthians 11:26; Matthew 28:19; Romans 6:4.
+ We believe our blessed hope is the rapture of the church at Christ's coming (1 Thessalonians 4:16,17).
+ We believe in the final resurrection of all the dead: the saved to eternal life and the lost to the judgement of
God (Revelation 20:4-6; 11-15).
