What We Believe

Our Doctrinal Statement

Article I
The Bible, including both the Old and the New Testaments, is a divine revelation inspired by God, inerrant in the original documents and of final authority in all matters of faith and practice.

Article I
There is one God, eternally existent in three Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Article II
The Bible, including both the Old and the New Testaments, is a divine revelation inspired by God, inerrant in the original documents and of final authority in all matters of faith and practice.

Article III
The Lord Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man. He was born of a virgin and is sinlessly perfect. His sacrifice is substitutionary and representative. He rose bodily from the dead and ascended to His Father’s right hand, where He now ministers as our Great High Priest. He will come to rapture His Church and subsequently return to reign over the earth.

Article IV
Man was created in the image of God but fell into sin, and is lost; and regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for the salvation of man. Redemption is wholly by the blood of Christ, and salvation is by grace, through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.

Article V
The Holy Spirit indwells the believer who is thus empowered to live a godly life.

Article VI
There will be resurrection of the saved and of the lost, of which the saved will be eternally be with Christ, and of the lost unto eternal conscious judgment.

Article VII
The Church began when the Holy Spirit descent on the day of Pentecost and is composed of all true believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. These believers are united to Him and to one another by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. The Church’s calling, hope and destiny are heavenly, and its chief functions are to glorify God and to witness for Christ until His return.

Article VIII
Christ, the risen head of the Church, is the source of all spiritual gifts which are given to all believers. Gifted individuals such as evangelists, pastors and teachers are responsible to Him for their service and are given “for the equipping of the saints for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the church of Christ.”

Article IX
There are two Christian ordinances, baptism and the Lord’s Supper. Baptism by immersion signifies that the believer, having died with Christ, is buried with Him in baptism and also is risen with Christ to walk in newness of life. The Lord’s Supper is a memorial feast, instituted by the Lord Himself exclusively for His own.

Article X
Every true child of God is promised eternal life and being justified, sanctified and sealed with the Holy Spirit, is safe and secure for all eternity.

Article XI
The personal imminent return of the Lord Jesus Christ to translate His Church will be followed by the Tribulation and the inauguration of Christ’s reign over the earth; He will then deliver up the Kingdom to God the Father that the Triune God may be all in all.
