| We believe the Bible to be the Word of God, therefore true and meaningful to
all generations and in all circumstances. We preach and teach the Bible,
believing that through it, God speaks to us today.
This is a short summary
of our faith:
We believe in.....
- One God the Father, Son
and Holy Spirit, who created all things by his almighty power and is
in control of all things.
- The Bible, which is God's
word and tells us all we need to know about what we should believe and
how we should live.
- Man, who was created perfect
in the image of God, but who through disobedience has become the slave
of sin and liable to God's just punishment.
- Jesus Christ, the eternal
Son of God who became man, lived a sinless life and died in our place,
taking away our guilt; who rose physically from the dead and is alive
and reigning in heaven today as Lord of all; who will one day come again
to this world and judge all men, condemning those who are unrepentant
and unbelieving and taking those who have truly believed in him to be
with him in everlasting glory.
- The Holy Spirit, who works
in the heart of sinners, enabling them to believe in Jesus Christ and
to repent of their sins, and who is a living reality in the lives of
those who are true believers.
- The Forgiveness of Sin,
which comes about as God's free and undeserved gift through the death
of the Lord Jesus Christ in the place of sinners and is received only
through faith in him.
- The Church, which is the
world wide community of all who truly believe in the Lord Jesus Christ.
