Statement of faith...
- We believe in the One true and living God, Creator
and Lord of all things, and eternally existing in a Trinity of persons,
Father, Son and Holy Spirit. He is perfect in love, holiness, justice,
wisdom and might.
- We believe human beings were created in the image of God, but that
sinfulness and guilt resulted from their rebellion
against Him. All therefore incurred His anger and condemnation.
- We believe in Jesus Christ, God's Son, who was born
of the Virgin Mary, and who came to reveal God the Father. Through His
death on the cross He has taken the punishment for our sin, and promises
to grant forgiveness and eternal life to all who, by faith, believe
in Him alone for salvation.
- We believe in the Holy Spirit, and in the power of
His working, both to bring us to repentance and faith, and to make us
like Christ.
- We believe in the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ, and in His
personal and visible return in glory to judge the living and the dead,
leading to the eternal joy of believers and the eternal punishment of
unbelievers.
- We believe that the Bible, both Old and New Testaments, is the inspired
Word of God, and has supreme authority in all matters of faith and daily
living.
- We believe in the unity of The Church, that is all Christian believers,
which is the body of Christ.
- We believe it is the responsibility of all Christians to share the
good news of the gospel, to reveal His nature in their lives, and to
meet together frequently.
- We believe in baptism, by immersion, as a public declaration of personal
faith, and in the Lord's supper as an act of remembrance of Him and
His death. Both are in accordance with the instruction and example of
Jesus Christ, our Lord.
