CORE BELIEFS

  1. We believe in the inspiration and infallibility of the Bible as the Word of God and that it is the only reliable standard for our faith and life.
  2. There is one God, eternally self-existing, creator of all things, manifest as Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
  3. Jesus Christ is God Incarnate, born of the virgin Mary, fully human, fully divine. He died for the sins of the whole world and on the third day was bodily resurrected. He ascended to heaven and is our high priest, interceding for believers before God’s throne.
  4. The Holy Spirit is God and has revealed Himself as a living Person. The Holy Spirit enables man to know God and serve Him. He seals believers and is an agent in their regeneration and sanctification.
  5. Man, created in God’s image, has fallen in the sin of Adam and is in need of regeneration.
  6. The only basis of salvation is the shed blood of Jesus Christ. Genuine faith in Jesus Christ (which includes repentance) is the only means of salvation and that it is a gift of God.
  7. The church is the body of Jesus Christ composed of all those who have been born of the Spirit of God.
  8. We believe in the personal imminent return of Jesus Christ.
  9. The dead will be resurrected. The righteous to be ushered into eternal bliss, the unrighteous to eternal punishment.
