Our Beliefs

The Bible

We believe the Bible, comprised of sixty-six books as commonly received in the Old and New Testament, to be the inspired Word of God. Hence, the  Bible contains all things necessary to salvation so that whatsoever is not read therein, nor proved thereby, is not to be required of any man, that it should be believed as an article of faith, or be thought requisite or necessary to salvation.

Hebrews 4:12      2 Timothy 3:16-17

 

The Godhead

We believe in One God, revealed as  Father, Son and Holy Ghost and in the Lord Jesus Christ in whom “Dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily”.

Colossians 2:9

 

Salvation

We believe in Salvation; that is, in the necessity of the new birth, or regeneration by grace through faith in our Lord Jesus as provided by His atonement. The grace of God that brings salvation teaches us to deny ungodliness and worldly lusts and to live soberly, righteously and Godly in the present world.

 

Ephesians 2:8     Romans 5:8-11     Romans 12:1-2      2 Timothy 4:7       Titus 2:12      Hebrews 12:1-2

 

Baptism of the Holy Ghost

We believe in the Holy Ghost (Spirit), His indwelling Presence and that the manifestations of the Holy Spirit are given to every believer to profit withal.

 

Matthew 3:11     Acts 1:8      Acts 2:4      1 Corinthians 11:7-11

 

Sacrament and Ordinances

We believe in the Baptism in water by immersion and the celebration of the Lord’s Supper. These are two ordinances left by Christ for His church to observe.

 

Matthew 28:18-20      Mark 16:16      Acts 2:38     Matthew 26:26-28     1 Corinthians 11: 23-26   

The Ministry

We believe that the five-fold ministries of Apostles, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor and Teacher are given to the Church “for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ”. We believe in the appointment of Elders and Deacons for the Local church ministry and government through the scriptural manner of ordination by the laying on of hands.

 

Ephesians 4:11-12      1 Corinthians 12:4-7      Acts 6:1-6      Acts 15:6      Acts 14:23       Acts 6:6      1 Timothy 4:14      Titus 1:5

 

The Second Coming of Christ.

We believe in the literal Second coming to earth again of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the rewarding of the righteous and the just punishment of the wicked.

 

Acts 1:11       1 Thessalonians 4:13-17      Hebrews 9:28
