What We Believe
Our faith is grounded in the Bible and the finished work of Jesus Christ
THE BIBLE
We believe that the Bible is God's Word. It is accurate, authoritative and applicable to our everyday lives
2 Timothy 3:16, 2 Peter 1:20-21, Psalm 119:105, 160
THE TRINITY
We believe in one eternal God who is the Creator of all things. He exists in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. He is totally loving and completely holy.
Genesis 1:1, 26, 27, Matthew 28:19, 1 Peter 1:2
SIN
We believe that sin has separated each of us from God and His purpose for our lives.
Isaiah 53:6, Romans 3:23, Isaiah 59:1-2
JESUS CHRIST
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ as both God and man is the only One who can reconcile us to God. He lived a sinless and exemplary life, died on the cross in our place, and rose again to prove His victory and empower us for life.
John 1:1-5, John 3:16, 1 Corinthians 15:3-4, 2 Corinthians 5:19
SALVATION
We believe that in order to receive forgiveness and the 'new birth' we must repent of our sins, believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and submit to His will for our lives.
Titus 2:11, 3:5-7, 1 Peter 1:23, 1 John 5:1
BAPTISM
We believe that in order to live the holy and fruitful lives that God intends for us, we need to be baptised in water and be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit.
1 Peter 3:21, Acts 2:1-4, 38, Matthew 28:19-20
EQUIPPED
We believe that God has individually equipped us so that we can successfully achieve His purpose for our lives which is to worship God, fulfil our role in the Church and serve the community in which we live.
Ephesians 1:22-23, 2:22, Hebrews 12:23
TRANSFORMED
We believe that God wants to heal and transform us so that we can live healthy and prosperous lives in order to help others more effectively.
Mark 16:17-18, 1 Peter 2:24, James 5:14-15
ETERNITY
We believe that our eternal destination of either Heaven or hell is determined by our response to the Lord Jesus Christ.
Romans 6:23, John 3:16, Revelation 20:15
SECOND COMING
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is coming back again as He promised.
