Statement of Faith
The Scriptures
WE BELIEVE that the Holy Scriptures, consisting of Old and New
Testaments, were originally given by God, divinely inspired,
without error, infallible and are entirely trustworthy and the
supreme authority in all matters of faith and practice.
God
WE BELIEVE in one God, Creator of all things, eternally
existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Jesus
WE BELIEVE in our Lord Jesus Christ, God manifest in the
flesh, His virgin birth, sinless life, divine miracles, vicarious
and atoning death on the cross, bodily resurrection,
ascension and exaltation, mediatorial work, and personal,
imminent and visible return in power and glory.
Man
WE BELIEVE that Adam and Eve, created in the image of
God, were tempted by Satan, the god of this world, and
fell; that their sin has passed to all people, who as a result
are lost, are unable to save themselves from the wrath of
God, and need to be saved.
Salvation
WE BELIEVE that salvation is a gift of God to those who
repent and personally believe in Jesus Christ; that it is
accomplished by God’s grace through the shed blood of
the Lord Jesus Christ and regeneration by the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit
WE BELIEVE in God the Holy Spirit who indwells all believers
enabling them to live holy lives, and to witness and work
for the Lord Jesus Christ despite opposition from the world,
the flesh and Satan.
The Church
WE BELIEVE in the spiritual unity of all true believers, the
universal Church, the body of Christ.
The Resurrection
WE BELIEVE in the resurrection of both the saved and the
lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of eternal
life with God, they that are lost unto the resurrection of
eternal condemnation separated from God.
The Great Commission
WE BELIEVE that Christ commanded the Church to go into
all the world and make disciples of all peoples, baptizing
them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
and teaching those who believe to obey all that Christ
commanded.
