We Believe:

Statement of Faith


That the whole of the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments as originally given, are the verbally inspired Word of God, supreme in authority and completely free from error.
 


In one true God: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, these being the same in substance and equal in power and glory.
 


In the Deity and perfect humanity of our Lord Jesus Christ who was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary, His substitutionary death, His bodily resurrection and ascension, and His unchanging office as High Priest.
 


In the personal nature of the Devil and his desire to draw people away from God.
 


In the fallen, sinful and lost state of all people.
 


In God’s provision of full salvation through the shed blood of Jesus Christ from the punishment and power of sin.  All who are willing, receive it by repentance towards God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
 


In the Person and work of the Holy Spirit in the immediate regeneration of believers and in their sanctification.
 


In the everlasting consciousness of the person, the resurrection of the body, the renewal of the whole creation, the everlasting fellowship and joy of the saved, the everlasting punishment of the lost and the final judgment of all people.
 


That the Church is God’s chosen people and priesthood, the company of all believers born of the Holy Spirit, and formed into one body of which Christ is the Head.
 


That God created human beings male and female, equally made in the image of God, and that marriage is between a man and a woman, as a type of the union between Christ and His church.
 


The personal and visible bodily return of Jesus Christ.
 


That the observance of the two ordinances of the Lord Jesus Christ, namely, Baptism and the Lord’s Supper is a Scriptural requirement upon all believers.  Baptism is a water rite that symbolises the cleansing from sin and the fellowship of the believer in their Lord’s death, burial and resurrection, upon profession of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. The Lord’s Supper is a memorial of the sacrifice of the body and blood of the Lord Jesus Christ until His return.
