What we believe

 

THE BIBLE

The Bible is the inspired, inerrant and authoritative Word of God for the Christian faith and living. ( John 17:17; 2 Timothy 3:15-17; Hebrews 4:12; 1 Peter 1:23-25; 2 Peter 1:20-21) 

THE TRINITY

There is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:19; John 10:30-33; 15:26; Romans 8:9; Colossians1:15; 2:9; Hebrews 1:2-3)

GOD THE SON

We believe in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His vicarious and atoning death, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His personal return in power and glory.  (The gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John; Hebrews 4:15; 9:26-28; I Peter 2:22; Romans 3:21-26; Acts 7:56; Colossians 3:1; I Corinthians 15; Acts 1:11; I Thessalonians 5:15-17)

THE HOLY SPIRIT

We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling every Christian is able to live a godly life. (John; Acts 1:8; Romans 8:1-17; Galatians 5:16-25)

SALVATION

All people are lost sinners and must turn to Christ in saving faith and repentance for regeneration by the Holy Spirit. (John 3:3-8;16-21; Acts 4:12; Romans 3:21-26; 6:23; Ephesians 2:1-10)

RESURRECTION

We believe in the resurrection of both those who believe in Jesus and those who do not believe: those believing to eternal life with Christ and those unbelieving to eternal punishment in hell. (Matthew 25; John 6:40; 1 Corinthians 15; Revelation 20:11-15)
