Statement of Faith
We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)
We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:19)
We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ (Colossians 2:9), in His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14), in His sinless life (2 Corinthians 5:21), in His miracles (Matthew 19:26), in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood on the cross (Hebrews 9:12-14), in His bodily resurrection (Luke 24:5-7), in His ascension to the right hand of the Father (Mark 16:19), and in His personal return in power and glory (1 Peter 3:22).
We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful people, one must believe in their heart and confess with their mouth that Jesus is Lord and that regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential. (Romans 10:9-10, Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 8:9)
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a Godly life. (John 14:26)
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost: they that are saved unto the resurrection of life. (Matthew 25:31-46)
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in Christ, and that all believers are called to take part in the Great Commission given by Jesus. (Matthew 28:16-20)
