WE BELIEVE:

• That the Holy Bible is the living Word of God, infallible, authoritative, and declares God’s design and plan for mankind. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)
• In the Eternal Godhead, that there is only One True God, revealed in three persons: The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit (commonly known as the Holy Trinity). (2 Corinthians 13:14 / 1 John 5:7 NKJV )
• In the Godship of the Lord Jesus Christ. As God’s Son, Jesus was both human and Divine. (John 1:1-5, 14)
• That though originally perfect, created in the image & likeness of God, man willfully disobeyed God and fell to sin, ushering evil & death, both physical & spiritual into the world. (Romans 5:12)
• In salvation by grace through faith alone, in Christ alone with sincere repentance (metanoia) and not by works, resulting in a new birth. (John 3:16; John 3:3; Ephesians 2:8; John 6:40; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Luke 5:20)
• That it is the will of God that we be sanctified daily through a progressive lifelong process of separating from evil as we continually draw closer to God and become more Christlike. (Hebrews 6:1; Romans 12:1-2; 2 Peter 3:18)
• In water baptism by immersion as an outward sign of an inward work (Matthew 28:9), in the commemoration of the Lord’s Supper by the symbolic use of the bread and juice of the vine (1 Corinthians 11:24-25) and in the Baptism with the Holy Spirit to empower believers for witnessing and effective service, just as it did in New Testament times. (Acts 2:4)
• That it is the will of God that we have a Spirit-filled life (Ephesians 4:30-32), with the spiritual gifts and fruit constantly evident as bestowed upon us by the Holy Spirit (1Corinthians 12:1-11; Galatians 5:22) without showing extremes of fanaticism. (Philippians 4:5)
• That divine healing is the power of Jesus Christ to heal the physically sick in answer to the prayer of faith. (James 5:14-16)
• In the Second Coming of Jesus Christ (1Thessalonians 4:16-17), His Millennial Reign that will bring the salvation of national Israel and the establishment of universal peace (Revelation 20:1-6), and we believe and look forward to the perfect New Heavens & a New Earth that Jesus Christ is preparing for all people, of all time, who have accepted Him. (Revelation 21:1-4)
• That it is our sacred duty to identify ourselves with the visible Body of Jesus Christ (Acts 16:5; Hebrews 10:25) and that soul winning is the most important responsibility of the Church (James 5:20), a Church with a divinely called and scripturally ordained leadership ministry. (Matthew 20:25-27)
• In Heaven, the glorious eternal home of born-again believers (John 14:1-3; Revelation 7:15-17), and in hell, which is the place of eternal torment for all who reject Christ as the Saviour (Revelation 20:10,15), and that all shall stand someday before the judgement seat of God, and there receive eternal life or death. (2 Corinthians 5:10)
