We believe in one eternal God, Yahweh, the sovereign Creator and Sustainer of all things, infinitely perfect, existing in three persons: The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit.
We believe Jesus Christ was born of a virgin miraculously conceived and overshadowed by the Holy Spirit. He is true God and became true man united in one person forever. The fullness of His love and grace were displayed when God Himself entered into the human condition of suffering. He died on the cross as a sacrifice for our sins. On the third day, He arose bodily from the dead and ascended into heaven. Now He is our High Priest and Mediator at the right hand of the Majesty on High and will one day come again to the earth personally, visibly, and bodily, to judge the living and the dead, and to complete and perfect history and the eternal plan of God
We believe The Holy Spirit has come to glorify Christ and to apply the saving work of Christ to our hearts. He convicts us of sin and draws us to the Saviour. Indwelling our hearts, He gives new life to us, empowers and imparts gifts to us for service. He instructs and guides us into all truth, and seals us for the day of redemption. The baptism of the Holy Spirit is available for all believers with the evidence of speaking in tongues and supernatural gifts to be used for building up of the Church and ministry to the world.
We believe that mankind has estranged itself from God and we are condemned by our sinfulness. Our salvation is wholly dependent upon the finished work of Christ on the cross. Salvation is a work of God’s amazing grace. God credits His righteousness to those who put their faith in Christ alone for their salvation and thereby justifies them in His sight.
We believe the true Church is composed of all people who, through saving faith in Jesus Christ and the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit, are united together in the body of Christ. The Church finds her visible, yet imperfect, expression in local congregations where people gather in praise and worship of God; where the good news of the Gospel is preached in integrity; where we mature as disciples of Christ; and the sacraments of baptism by immersion, and of The Lord’s Supper are celebrated.
We believe in Christ’s leadership of the Church through the ascension ministries of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers, for the unity, maturity and growth of the Church and for the fulfilment of The Great Commission by every believer: to go into all the world and make disciples of Christ.
