Our Statement of Faith

We believe:

• The Holy Scriptures are originally given by God, divinely inspired, infallible, and entirely trustworthy; and the only supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct.
• In one God, eternally existent in three Persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
• In our Lord Jesus Christ, God manifest in the flesh, His virgin birth, His sinless human life, His divine miracles, His death and resurrection, His ascension, His ongoing mediatorial work and His personal return in power and glory.
• By faith and God’s saving grace, lost and sinful man receives salvation through the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ.
• In the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the believer is enabled to live a holy life to witness to and work for, the Lord Jesus Christ. We believe in the Gifts and Fruit of the Holy Spirit and that signs, miracles and wonders will be provided as God wills.
• In the unity in the Spirit of all believers, the Church, or the Body of Christ.
• In the resurrection of both the believer and non-believer, in the eternal blessedness of the believer and in the judgment and eternal punishment of the non-believer.
