| Statement of
Faith |
We believe in the
fundamental truths of Christianity as revealed in the
Scriptures including the following:
- The unity of the Godhead - Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
(Duet 6:4, Mat 28:19, 2 Cor 13:14)
- The sovereignty of God in creation, revelation,
redemption and final judgement. (Gen 1:1, Heb 1:1-2, Titus
3:4-5, Acts 17:31)
- The divine inspiration of the Old and New Testaments and
their entire trustworthiness and supreme authority in all
matters of faith and conduct. (2 Tim 3:16, 2 Pet 1:21)
- Mans fallen condition through Adams sin, rendering him
subject to Gods wrath and condemnation. (Rom 5:12, John
3:18)
- Redemption from our sin solely through the sacrificial
and atoning death of our Lord Jesus. (Rom 3:25, 2 Cor
5:19, Mk 10:45)
- The bodily resurrection of our Saviour from the dead and
His ascension to the right hand of the Father in glory. (1
Cor 15:4, Heb 8:1)
- The justification of the sinner by the grace of God
through faith alone. (Gal 2:16, Eph 2:8-9)
- The Holy Spirit as the divine agent through whom lost
and sinful man is regenerated, and by whom the believer is
empowered for life and service. (Jn 3:5-6, Rom 8:9, 2 Thes
2:13)
- The one universal Church is the body of Christ to which
all true believers in Him belong. (Eph 1:22-23, 1 Cor
12:12-13, Acts 2:41-47)
- The blessed hope of Christ's return to power and glory.
(Act 1:11, Heb 9:28, 2 pet 3:10)
We believe in the gifts of the Holy Spirit (1 Cor 12) and
the many infillings of the Holy Spirit. (Eph 5:18)
We are firmly committed to "discipling the
nations". (Mat 28:19-20, Acts 1:8) |
