Statement of faith

WE BELIEVE IN ONE GOD.

The one God exists eternally in three persons - the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God, and is completely trustworthy, speaking with supreme authority in all matters of belief and practice.

We believe all people are created in the image of God and have intrinsic value, but as a result of sin are alienated from God and each other, and therefore in need of reconciliation.

We believe the Church is the body of Christ, the fellowship of all believers and is commissioned to make disciples of all nations.

WE BELIEVE JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD.

He was born of the virgin Mary, and he is fully God and fully human. He demonstrated God's love for sinners by suffering the penalty of death in their place, rose bodily from the dead and ascended to heaven where he intercedes for his people.

We believe all who repent and trust in Jesus Christ alone as Lord and Savior are, by the grace of God, declared to be right with him, receiving forgiveness and eternal life.

We believe the Lord Jesus Christ will return personally in glory, raise the dead and judge the world.

WE BELIEVE IN ETERNAL LIFE.

We believe all people will rise from the dead - those who are in Christ to enjoy eternal life with God and those who are lost to suffer eternal separation from him.

We believe in the Holy Spirit who imparts new life to those who believe in Christ. Through his indwelling presence and transforming power he gives assurance and equips believers for holy living and effective service.
