What we believe
|
We believe that the Bible (i.e. the Old and New Testaments excluding the Apocrypha), is the inspired Word of God, the infallible, all sufficient rule for faith and practice.
(2 Tim. 3:15-16; 2 Peter 1:21)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Who is God?
We believe in the unity of the One True and Living God Who is the Eternal, Self-Existent "I AM", Who has also revealed Himself as One being existing in three Persons - Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
(Deut. 6:4; Mark 12:29; Matt. 28:19; 2 Cor. 3:14)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jesus is God
We believe in the Virgin Birth, Sinless Life, Miraculous Ministry, Substitutionary Atoning Death, Bodily Resurrection, Triumphant Ascension and Abiding Intercession of the Lord Jesus Christ and in His Premillennial Second Advent as the blessed hope set before all believers.
(Isa. 7:14; Matt. 1:23; Heb. 7:26; 1 Pet. 2:22; Acts 2:22, 10:38; 2 Cor. 5:21; Heb. 9:12; Luke 24:39; 1 Cor. 15:4; Acts 1:9; Eph. 4:8-10; Rom. 8:34; Heb. 7:25; 1 Cor. 5:22-24, 51-57; 1 Thess. 4:13-18; Rev. 20:1-6)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All have sinned
We believe in the fall of man, who was created pure and upright, but fell by voluntary transgression.
(Gen. 1:26-31, 3:1-7; Rom. 5:12-21)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nothing we do can earn heaven
We believe in the salvation through faith in Jesus Christ, who, according to the Scriptures, died for our sins, was buried and was raised from the dead on the third day, and that through His Blood we have Redemption (Titus 2:11, 3:5-7; Rom. 10:8-15; 1 Cor. 15:3-4). This experience is also known as the new birth, and is an instantaneous and complete operation of the Holy Spirit upon initial faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
(John 3:5-6; James 1:18; 1 Pet. 1:23; 1 John 5:1)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Water baptism
We believe that all who have truly repented and believed in Christ as Lord and Saviour are commanded to be baptised by immersion in water.
(Matt. 28:19; Acts 10:47-48, 2:38-39)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Baptism in the Holy Spirit
We believe in the baptism in the Holy Spirit, the initial evidence of which is usually the speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance.
(Acts 2:4, 10:44-46, 11:14-16, 19:6; Isa 8:18)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gifts of the Spirit
We believe in the operation of the gifts of the Holy Spirit and the gifts of Christ in the Church today.
(1 Cor. 12:4-11, 28; Eph. 4:7-16)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Christian walk
We believe in the holiness of life and conduct in obedience to the command of God.
(1 Pet. 1:14-16; Heb. 12:14; 1 Thess. 5:23; 1 John 2:6)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Healing
We believe that deliverance from sickness, by Divine Healing is provided for in the Atonement
(Isa. 53:4-5; Matt. 8:16-17; James 5:13-16)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Communion
We believe that all who have truly repented and believe in Christ as Lord and Saviour should regularly participate in the Breaking of Bread
(Luke 22:14-20; 1 Cor. 11:20-34)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eternity
We believe in the bodily resurrection of all men, the everlasting conscious bliss of all who truly believe in our Lord Jesus Christ and the everlasting conscious punishment of all whose names are not written in the Book of Life.
(Dan. 12:2-3; John 5:28-29; 1 Cor. 15:22-24; Matt 25:46; 2 Thess. 1:9; Rev. 20:10-15)
