| 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. |
| 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 co- existing in three Persons - Father, Son and Holy Spirit. |
| 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 personal, visible, bodily return in power and glory as the blessed hope of all believers. |
| We Believe .... |
in the fall of man, who was created pure and upright, but fell by voluntary transgression. |
| We Believe .... |
in salvation through faith in 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. 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. |
| 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. |
| We Believe .... |
in the
baptism in the Holy Spirit as an enduement of the believer with power
for service, the essential, biblical evidence of which is the speaking
with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance. |
| We Believe .... |
in the operation of the gifts of the Holy Spirit and the gifts of
Christ in the Church today. |
| We Believe .... |
in holiness of life and conduct in obedience to the command of God. |
| We Believe .... |
that deliverance from sickness, by divine healing, is provided for in
the atonement. |
| We Believe .... |
that all who
have truly repented and believe in Christ as Lord and Saviour should
regularly participate in Breaking of Bread. |
| 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. |
