Statement of Faith
Our foundational beliefs as a Bible-believing church, rooted in Scripture and centred on Christ
"All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness."
— 2 Timothy 3:16
Our Core Beliefs
These seven foundational doctrines form the bedrock of our faith and guide our understanding of God's truth
The Trinity
We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
Supporting Scripture
Matthew 28:19 - ""Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.""
2 Corinthians 13:14 - ""May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.""
1 John 5:7 - ""For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.""
The Deity of Christ
We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, and in His bodily resurrection.
Supporting Scripture
John 1:1 - ""In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.""
Matthew 1:23 - ""The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel (which means 'God with us').""
1 Corinthians 15:4 - ""He was buried, and he was raised from the dead on the third day, just as the Scriptures said.""
The Bible
We believe the Bible to be the inspired and infallible Word of God.
Supporting Scripture
2 Timothy 3:16 - ""All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness.""
2 Peter 1:21 - ""For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets, though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.""
Psalm 119:105 - ""Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.""
Salvation by Grace
We believe in salvation by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Supporting Scripture
Ephesians 2:8-9 - ""For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast.""
Romans 10:9 - ""If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.""
John 3:16 - ""For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.""
Baptism of the Holy Spirit
We believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in other tongues as a subsequent gift to salvation.
Supporting Scripture
Acts 2:4 - ""All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.""
Acts 1:8 - ""But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.""
1 Corinthians 14:2 - ""For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to people but to God. Indeed, no one understands them; they utter mysteries by the Spirit.""
Divine Healing
We believe in the provision of bodily healing in the atoning work of Jesus our Saviour.
Supporting Scripture
Isaiah 53:5 - ""But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.""
Matthew 8:17 - ""This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah: 'He took up our infirmities and bore our diseases.'""
James 5:16 - ""Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.""
The Return of Christ
We believe in the return of the Lord Jesus Christ and the resurrection of the saved and the lost; the saved unto eternal life, living eternally in the presence of God, and the unsaved unto eternal damnation.
Supporting Scripture
Acts 1:11 - ""Men of Galilee,' they said, 'why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven.'""
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 - ""For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.""
Revelation 20:15 - ""Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.""
