bullet What We Believe -(click to expand)
  • The divine inspiration and infallibility of holy Scripture (the Bible), and its supreme authority and sufficiency in all matters of faith and conduct.
     
  • The unity of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit in the Godhead.
     
  • The universal guilt and sinfulness of all people since the fall, rendering each person subject to God’s wrath and condemnation.
     
  • Redemption from the guilt, penalty and power of sin, only through the sacrificial death, as our representative and substitute of Jesus Christ, the incarnate Son of God.
     
  • The bodily resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ from the dead.
     
  • The necessity of the Holy Spirit to make the death of Christ effective in the individual sinner, granting him/her repentance before God and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ.
     
  • The indwelling and work of the Holy Spirit in the believer.
     
  • The expectation of the personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ.
     
  • The sovereignty of God in creation, revelation, redemption and final judgement.
     
  • The two ordinances of the Lord Jesus Christ, namely Baptism and the Lord's Supper, which are of perpetual obligation: Baptism being the immersion of believers upon the profession of their faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, and a symbol of the fellowship of the regenerate in His death, burial and resurrection; the Lord's Supper being a memorial, until He comes, of the sacrifice of the body and blood of the Lord Jesus Christ.
