The
Inspirational Scriptures
We believe that all of Scripture, both the Old and New Testament, is
the infallible, inspired word of God, and is our final authority in
all matters pertaining to doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction
in righteousness. 2 Timothy 3:16 & 17
The
One True God
We believe in only one true God; the redeemer of mankind, one in essence,
nature, and attributes, revealing Himself in three persons: Father,
Son, and Holy Spirit.
1 John 5:7
The
Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ
We believe in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth,
of His shed blood on the cross for the forgiveness of our sins, of His
bodily resurrection and ascension to the Father's right hand. Matthew
1:23; 1 Corinthians 15:3; Matthew 28:6; Acts 1:9
We
believe that He is the only way to the Father through which we can receive
righteousness, regeneration, sanctification, and glorification. He is
our salvation.
1 Corinthians 1:30-31
The
Holy Spirit
We believe in the baptism with the Holy Spirit which is witnessed by
speaking in tongues as the Spirit of God gives utterance. Acts 2:4
Salvation
We believe that all who, through repentance and faith, receive the Lord
Jesus as Saviour and Lord of their lives are born again. Romans
10:10; John 3:3 & 7
Healing
We believe that the redemptive work of Christ on the cross has provided
divine healing for the human body and is the privilege of all believers.
Matthew 8:16 & 17; Isaiah 53:4; 1 Peter 2:24
The
Resurrection
We believe in the resurrection of the believers in Christ and the unbelievers
one to everlasting life and one to everlasting damnation. Matthew
25:46
The
Second Coming
We believe in a literal, physical second return of the Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
The
Church
We believe that the universal church, with Christ as its authoritative
head, comprising of all true believers who have received salvation through
Christ. Ephesians 1:22-23
We also believe in and encourage fellowship with all like minded local
churches. Hebrews 10:24
Gifts
of the Spirit
We believe that spiritual gifts are from the Holy Spirit and are manifested
for the common good of all today. 1 Corinthians 12:7
Tithing
and Offerings
We believe that by regular tithing and offerings to our church we demonstrate
our commitment to giving God first place in our lives. This commitment
supports the church’s financial obligations and its work in the
local area. Malachi 3:10
