The Bible is the divinely inspired Word of God, written by men under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is unique, in that it is the only book in the world that is ‘alive’. It is the final authority in all matters of faith and conduct.
The One eternal holy God exists in three equally divine persons: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
The Lord Jesus is the eternal Son of God and the Creator and Sustainer of all things. He was born of the virgin Mary and stands supreme among mankind, in that He alone lived a sinless life.
All men and women are sinners and consequently are pronounced ‘guilty’ by God. They are deserving of His righteous judgment and eternal punishment
God, not willing that any should perish, has demonstrated His love towards mankind
by sending His Son (the Lord Jesus Christ) to die for sins upon the cross. God made
‘His soul an offering for sin’ -
Having died, He was subsequently buried, and three days later He was raised bodily from among the dead.
The death of Christ is the sole means whereby a person can get ‘saved’. By repentance
and personal faith in Him, the sinner can be acquitted and accounted as righteous
before God. ‘For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves;
it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.’ -
All who trust the Lord for salvation, become members of the Church of Jesus Christ and following conversion should be baptised in water by full immersion.
Having returned to His Father, the Lord has requested that Holy Spirit be sent to indwell all who trust in Him
The Lord Jesus will return one day to take His Church to heaven
Approximately seven years after this event, He will return to Earth to put down all
His enemies and be crowned King upon the holy hill of Zion. The Abrahamic and Davidic
covenants will be fulfilled in that great day. His reign will last for 1000 years

A brief outline of our beliefs
At the conclusion of the Millennium, the final battle takes place and Satan is cast into the Lake of Fire. Then ‘the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up’ and then there shall be ‘new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.’
“Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures ... He was buried, and He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures”
1CORINTHIANS 15:3-
All those who reject God’s salvation will be raised from the dead to appear before the Great White Throne. “They were judged, each one according to his works ... And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire”
JOHN 17:17
