OUR STATEMENT OF FAITH

God the Father: We believe in God who is the first Person of the Holy Trinity; creator and Owner of heaven and earth and all that is created. Genesis 1:1; Psalms 24:1-2 

God the Son: We believe in God the Son who is the second Person of the Holy Trinity. We believe Him to be the Messiah; the Annointed One whom the Holy Scriptures predicted His coming. We believe that He finally came and was proved with great power to be the Son of God. He was arrested, condemned, cricified on the cross and died. He was burried in the tomb but was raised from the dead by the glory of God to live eternally again. He was lifted up into heaven and is seated at the right hand of God where is forever praying for us. We also believe that He will come back to take His bride; the church without spot or wrinkle. Isaiah 9:6; Matthew 3:17; Acts 3: 13-15; 1Thessalonians 4:15-17

God the Holy Spirit: We believe in God the Holy Spirit who is the third Person of the Holy Trinity. We believe that He is the Author of the Holy Scriptures. We believe that He was sent to be our Comforter, our Counselor, our Helper, our Advocate, our Intercessor, our Strengthener and our Teacher. John14:16, 26; 15:26 (Amp) John 16:13 

The Holy Scriptures: We believe that the bible is the Word of God. We accept it as the final authority for doctrine and instruction. We believe that it was written as God inspired holy men and they spoke. 11Timothy 3:16; 11Peter 1:20-21

The fall of man: We believe that God created man for communion with him. That man fell when tempted by Satan and as such sin came into the world. That all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. Genesis 1:26-28; 3:8-10, 23-24; Romans 3:23

 Salvation of mankind:  We believe that salvation is a gift from God - not of works, lest any man should boast. We believe that when we confess our sins God is faithful and just to forgive us all our sins. Salvation is only received through faith in Jesus Christ to produce works acceptable to God. Romans 10:9-12; Ephesians 2:8-9

 Water baptism: We believe that water baptism is only for believers in Christ and it is through complete emersion - the whole body being covered by water. We believe that it symbolizes the fact that, as Jesu Christ died and was buried, so are we in baptism. As Jesus Christ was raise from the dead, so are we also raised with Him to live in the newness of life. Matthew 28:19; Romans 6:4; Colossians 2:12; Acts 8:36-39; Acts 2:38-41

Baptism in the Holy Spirit:  We believe that baptism in the Holy Spirit is a gift from God promised by Christ in this dispensation of grace. This experience is subsiquent to new birth and is followed by the evidence of speaking in other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance. Matthew 3:11; Acts 1:8; 2:1-4; 8:14-17

Divine Healing: We believe that healing is for today and can be received by everyone wE believes that Christ purchase and paid for our healing on the cross. Healing can be ministered through the laying on of hands releasing faith to receive it. It is wrought by the power of God through the prayer of faith. Isaiah 53:4-5; Mark 16:17-18
