What we believe
The word of God

About God

... that He is one God, the sole Creator and Sustainer of all things, infinite, perfect and eternally existing in three persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

About Jesus Christ

... that He is both God and man, born of a virgin, lived a sinless life and performed miracles. on the cross He died as our substitute and experienced the full judgement of God for our sin. We believe in His bodily resurrection, ascension to heaven and His future return to earth to reign.

About the Holy Spirit

... that He convicts individuals regarding their sin and of their need for repentance. At the point of salvation He permanently indwells every believer and becomes their source of assurance, strength and wisdom, and He uniquely endows each believer with gifts for the building up of the body.

About Sin

... that man was created in the image of God, that he sinned and thereby incurred not only the physical death, but also spiritual death, which is separation from God. We believe that all human beings are born with a sinful nature because of Adam's sin.

About Salvation

... that salvation is by faith in Christ alone and cannot be achieved by any human effort. It is wholly a work of God's free grace and by it we are justified on the grounds of Christ's shed blood

About the Church

... that it is the body of Christ, of which He is the head, comprised of all those who acknowledge Jesus Christ as saviour and Lord. It is not restricted to gender, denomination, social standing, race, colour or creed

About Judgement and Resurrection

... that there will be a resurrection of all people and a final judgement. Those who have received salvation will enjoy eternal life with Christ in God's presence. Those who reject Christ will suffer the judgement of eternal separation from God in Hell.

About the Bible

... that the Holy Scriptures (Bible) as originally given were without error and recorded by men who were inspired by the power of the Holy Spirit. We believe the Bible is the unique, full and final authority on all matters of faith and practice, and there are no other writings similarly inspired by God.
