Statement Of Faith |
| |
We believe in God,
the almighty
creator of heaven
and earth.
We believe in the
trinity of God. We
believe that God
is eternally One,
and also eternally
the Father, the
Son and the Holy
Spirit -- the
three being
distinct, but not
separate. Each
Person of the
Godhead coexists
from everlasting
to everlasting.
We believe in the
Messiah, Jesus,
God's only
begotten son, God
come in the flesh.
He was conceived
by the Holy
Spirit, born of
the Virgin Mary.
He suffered under
Pontius Pilate. He
was crucified,
died and buried.
On the third day,
He rose again.
Soon afterward He
ascended into
heaven. Now He is
seated at the
right hand of the
Father and He will
return to judge
both the living
and the dead and
reign for
evermore.
We believe all
mankind are sinful
and are therefore
subject to God’s
wrath and
condemnation.
We believe that
everyone is in
need of God's
salvation. Mankind
is absolutely
unable to fulfill
the heavy demands
of God's
righteousness,
holiness and
glory. Therefore,
God, in sending
His Only Begotten
Son, has
accomplished
redemption for us
through the
shedding of Jesus'
blood. Because of
His Son's death,
God has forgiven
us of our sins,
reconciled us to
Himself, and
justified us by
making Him our
righteousness.
We believe that
salvation is a
gift received by
faith alone, in
Messiah alone, and
is expressed in
the individual’s
recognition and
repentance of sin,
and the acceptance
of the risen
Messiah as Saviour,
Lord and God.
We believe in the
supreme Lordship
of Jesus Christ,
before whom every
knee in heaven and
on earth will bow.
And that there is
no other name
under Heaven by
which we can
approach the holy
throne of God.
Jesus Christ is
the one and only
mediator between
God and man.
We believe that
immediately upon
death, the soul of
the believer is
absent from the
body, and present
with the Lord.
We believe in the
ongoing work of
sanctification by
the Holy Spirit
after redemption
for the purpose of
producing life
changing fruit --
love, joy, peace,
longsuffering,
gentleness,
goodness, faith,
meekness and
self-control.
We believe that
the 66 books of
the Canon, from
Genesis to
Revelation are the
exhaustive,
inerrant and
inspired word of
God. |
