The sole basis of our belief is the Bible. We believe that is it is God’s infallible Word, inspired by the Holy Spirit. It is inerrant and it is the supreme and final authority on all matters in which it speaks. 

(2 Timothy 3:16-17)

 

We believe in the Trinity of the eternal Godhead: The Father, The Son and the Holy Spirit (John 14:26)(Matthew 28:19).

 

We believe that Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man. He became flesh through His miraculous conception by the Holy Spirit and the virgin birth. (Matthew 1:18-25). We believe that He lived a sinless life (1 Peter 2:22;1 John 3:5) and that His death on the Cross paid for our sins. He rose from the dead and His resurrected body ascended into heaven where He is exalted as Lord of all (Acts 1:9).

 

We believe in salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ and not of works (Ephesians 2:8). We believe that no one can enter the Kingdom of God unless they are born again (John 3:5-8) and that all who accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour are declared righteous by God (Hebrew 10:19-25). All born again believers in Jesus Christ should be baptised (Mark 16:16). Every born again believer needs to show evidence of salvation from sin by pursuing a Godly life and exhibiting fruit of a life being lived for Jesus Christ.

 

We believe in the Holy Spirit and in the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking with other tongues (Acts 2:4). The Holy Spirit lives within (1 Corinthians 3:16) and guides (John 16:13; Romans 8:14) born-again believers. The Holy Spirit builds up the Church and empowers its members to preserve in worship, service and mission.

 

We believe in the imminent return of Jesus Christ (Matthew 24:36-46). He will return in glory and He will judge the world in righteousness (Romans 2:16). The wicked will be sent to eternal punishment (Revelation 20:15) and the righteous will be welcomed into a life of eternal joy in fellowship with God (John 6:40) 

(John 14:1-3).
