What We Believe

These points are a basis of faith and are not an exhaustive list of the teaching of the church; they are, however, considered by the church to be the essentials. If you would like to discuss matters of doctrine further, please do get in touch with us.

  1. That the Bible (The Old and New Testament, excluding the Apocrypha), as given by God, is divinely inspired, without error, entirely trustworthy, and the supreme authority in all matters of belief and conduct.
  2. In one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit (The Trinity).
  3. That God created the world in 6 days and rested on the 7th.
  4. In our Lord Jesus Christ, God who took on a human body; His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, and His atoning death.
  5. In the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, in His personal return, and the judgment of the world by Him.
  6. That everyone has sinned, having broken God’s laws, and are justly exposed to the wrath of God.
  7. That redemption from the guilt, penalty and power of sin is possible only through the death, shed blood and resurrection of Jesus Christ, and that only by faith in Him can the human soul be saved and have eternal life.
  8. In the necessity of the work of the Holy Spirit to make the death of Christ effective to the individual sinner, granting him repentance towards God, faith in our Lord Jesus Christ and enabling the believer to receive the righteousness of God in Christ. The Holy Spirit indwells the Christian, helping him live a holy life and giving him gifts to witness and work for Him.
  9. In the resurrection of the body, the eternal blessedness of those who follow Christ and the eternal conscious punishment of those who do not.
  10. In the existence of a personal devil (Satan), who is still working in the world to destroy the souls of men and that he and all his angels will eternally perish in the lake of fire.
  11. In the Church, consisting of all those who are “born again”, the head of which is Jesus Christ. Its mission is to bring the Good news of the Gospel to all the world.
  12. That all believers should be baptised by full immersion and regularly partake in The Lord’s Supper (communion).
