OUR BELIEFS

We believe in one God who alone is to be worshipped, who rules the universe and is creator of all. He has revealed Himself as three: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

We believe in God the Father: Holy, loving, the source of all goodness, truth and life.

We believe in God the Son, who is one with the Father and the Holy Spirit, our Lord Jesus Christ who was sent into the world by the Father’s love, conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. He was crucified for our sins and raised from the dead by the power of God. He now sits at the Father’s right hand praying and advocating for His Church.

We believe in God the Holy Spirit, one with the Father and Son, who inspired the Bible, who brings spiritual rebirth all who believe in Jesus through trust and turning from sin, who lives in us as a guarantee of eternal life, assists us in living holy lives, and empowers us for service and ministry.

We believe that people were created in God’s image, but were alienated from God because of sin, and now live in a damaged world. We, therefore, are unable to restore the broken relationship. God, in His love and mercy, through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross, restores us, giving us new birth, a new identity, and a new family.

We believe God brings all His new-born children into His family, the Church. The church exists as the local church wherever His people gather for worship, relationship, teaching, and service. As Lord of the Church, Jesus directs us to tell everyone everywhere about Him so that they too might follow Him and receive the benefits of the Kingdom. One day He will come and gather all His Church to be with Him in heaven’s glory forever.

We believe that the Church is the body of Jesus on earth and God’s family. Through these family relationships, God the Holy Spirit promotes unity, brings about healing, exercises His gifts, and mobilizes an army of Jesus-followers who join with Him to fight against the evil, demonic powers of darkness at work both in our world and in the heavenly places.

We believe in the Bible as God’s inspired, timeless, and relevant “Word” to all people. The Bible is true. It is completely trustworthy and our authoritative guide for all of life.
