Statement Of Faith
- We believe that the Bible is God’s unique revelation and that every word was supernaturally inspired by the Holy Spirit as it was being written down by various human authors.
- We believe that there is only one God, creator of heaven and earth, who exists eternally as three distinguishable persons - the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, each fully God yet each personally distinct from the other
(Mat 28:19; 2Co 13:14). - We believe that all people are created in the image of God and matter deeply to Him.
- We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God and the Saviour of the world.
- We believe that salvation is a gift of God received through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ.
- We believe in the Holy Spirit who is equal to the Father and the Son.
- We believe in the necessity of water baptism by immersion in the name of the Godhead in order to fulfil the command of the Lord Jesus Christ
(Mat 28:19; Acts 2:34-36; 19:1-6). - We believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit as an important experience available to every believer.
- We believe in the healing of the body by God’s power as practised in the early church
(Acts 4:30; Rom 8:11; 1Co 12:9; Jam 5:14). - We believe in the Lord’s Table, commonly called “communion” or “the Lord's Supper”, for believers
(1Co 11:28-32; Mat 26:26-28). - We believe in the reality and personality of the Devil and eternal judgement in the lake of fire for the Devil and his angels
(Mat 25:41; Rev 20:14, 15). - We believe that there is one true universal church made up of genuine believers and comprising many churches in various localities each exercising autonomous government under the headship of Jesus Christ.
