Our Beliefs
We Believe...
- The Scriptures of the Old and New Testament in their original writings as fully inspired by God, and accept them as the final authority for faith and life.
- In one God eternally existing in three Persons-Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
- That the Lord Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, and is true God and true Man.
- That God created man in His own image; that man sinned and thereby incurred the penalty of death, physical and spiritual; and that all human beings inherit a sinful nature which issues in actual transgression involving personal guilt.
- That the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins, a substitution sacrifice, according to the Scriptures, and that all who believe and trust in Him are justified on the grounds of His shed blood.
- In the bodily resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, His ascension into heaven, and His present life as our High Priest and Advocate.
- In the personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ.
- In the personality of the Holy Spirit, His regenerating work and His abiding presence in the true believer.
- That the whole company of those who have accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as their Saviour, been redeemed by Him and regenerated by the Holy Spirit, form the one true Church, and that the local church on earth should take its character from this concept. Therefore the new birth and personal confession of faith in Christ are essentials of church integration.
- That the Holy Spirit indwells all true believers and that He has been sent to be the Comforter and Empowerer of the Christian Church, to produce the fruit of the Holy Spirit and the gifts of the Holy Spirit according to the Scriptures.
- That the healing of the sick is still available in our day. (Mark 16:16-18; Matthew 8:16:16-17; 1 Corinthians 12:9; James 5:14-15)
- In the ordinances of the believer's baptism by total immersion in water and communion at the Lord's table to be open to all who have been born again by the Spirit of God and who love the Lord Jesus Christ.
