What We Believe

WE BELIEVE that the shed blood of Jesus Christ (which was shed on Calvary’s cross) provides the sole basis for forgiveness of sins and salvation, which is the free gift of God’s grace. Salvation cannot be secured by man’s works or personal merit.  Romans 6:23  says “the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord”. The stain of sin on humanity is so deep no-one but Jesus can remove it. And it can only be removed by Jesus – God in human form – sacrificing His own life. It is this spilling of Jesus’ innocent blood that forgives and saves humanity.

WE BELIEVE that if you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by openly declaring your faith that you are saved. (Romans 10:9-10)

WE BELIEVE in one true God eternally existing in three distinct persons (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) each of Whom is fully and equally God; possesses all of the divine nature and attributes and is totally worthy of our worship and service (Deut. 6:4; Matt. 28:19; John 1:14, John 10:30; 2 Cor. 13:14).

WE BELIEVE that the entire Bible is the inspired Word of God and that men of God were moved by the Holy Spirit to write the very words of Scripture. The Bible is therefore without error (inerrant) in its original manuscripts. God has supernaturally preserved the Bible, and it is the sole and final authority for faith and life, providing encouragement, guidance, comfort and instruction for training in righteousness (2 Tim. 3:16-17; 2 Pet. 1:20-21).
