We
believe there is one God who lives forever in three persons;
the Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Matt. 28:19)
We
believe that the Bible is God's Word to the world, speaking
to us with authority and without error. (2 Tim. 3:16-17)
We
believe in the divinity of the Jesus Christ the Son, His virgin
birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His death for us on the
cross, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the Father,
and His personal, physical return to rule the earth in power
and love. (John 1:14-18; 1 Thess. 4:16-18)
We
believe that all mankind are lost in sin and need to turn from
it and trust personally in the Saviour, Jesus Christ. All need
to be born anew by the Holy Spirit's power into God's family.
(Eph. 2:1-10; John 3:5-7)
We
believe the Holy Spirit lives in us as believers and brings
love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
humility, and self-control into our lives. He works in and through
us with His charismatic gifts. (Gal. 5:22-23; 1 Cor. 12:7-11)
We
believe in the resurrection of every person; to eternal life
for the believer and eternal judgment for the lost. (Matt. 25:31-46)
We
believe in unity for all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ
and seek community together: We want to become more like Him
in every way, who is the head of His body, the Church. We are
called to love Him and one another and are enabled to do this
only as His life flows through us. (1 Cor. 12:12-13; Matt. 22:37-40)
