Our Beliefs and Vision
We Believe:
-
In one God, Creator of all things, infinitely perfect and eternally existing in three persons…Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Matt 28:19)
-
That Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the Living God; and, as such, is Head of His body, the Church. (Matt. 16:16; Col. 1:18)
-
That He died to atone for the sins of all people and that He was raised bodily from the dead for their justification. (Rom. 4:25)
-
That Jesus stands before the Father as our eternal High Priest.
(Heb. 4:14-16) -
That Jesus will return to bring to perfection His already inaugurated Kingdom (1 Thess. 5:1-11).
-
That people are justified by faith in Him according to the terms of the Gospel laid down in the New Testament. (John 3:16, Acts 2:38, Rom. 10:9-10)
-
That the Holy Spirit lives in all Christians, gifting them for ministry, and producing the fruit of the Spirit. (1 Cor. 12:4; Gal. 5:22-23). The work of the Spirit equips Christians to practice the priest- hood of all believers (1 Peter 2:6,10).
-
That the Bible is the inspired Word of God and that it is the all-sufficient guide for the teaching, organization, and the life of the Church. (2 Tim. 3:14-16).

That we are to seek the unity of all believers by practicing Biblical Christianity. (John 17:20; Eph. 4: 1-13)
-
That the Church is the precious bride of Christ, temple of the Holy Spirit and a primary organ of God’s intervention in the world (2 Cor. 11:2, Rev. 19: 6-8; 1 Cor. 3: 16, 17)
-
That the mission of the Church worldwide is evangelism and Christian nurture. (Matt. 28: 18-20)
