STATEMENT OF FAITH
We believe:
i) that the
Bible is the inspired Word of God, the only infallible rule of
faith and practice.
ii) that
there is one true and living God revealed in three persons:
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
iii) that man
was created in the image of God, but as a result of sin, is lost
and powerless to save himself.
iv) that the
Lord Jesus Christ is the eternal deity and is the virgin-born
Son of God who died upon a cross to bear mankind’s afflictions
and punishment for sin; who arose bodily from the dead and
ascended into heaven where He sits at the right hand of the
Father, and who will return to earth in power and glory.
v) that sin
is cleansed only through personal repentance and faith in the
precious blood of Jesus Christ.
vi)
that
personal salvation is the result of regeneration by the Holy
Spirit who baptizes the believer into the Body of Christ.
vii) that
believers are to be baptised in water and in the Holy Spirit
according to Acts 2:4 and that there is a moving and working of
the Holy Spirit in the lives of men in these last days.
viii)
in the
personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ to this earth, and in the
establishment of His Kingdom on this earth.
ix) that Christian marriage is a
Holy Sacrament between one man and one woman; adhering to the moral
standard of the Holy Scriptures.
