What We Believe

The Bible 

The Bible is the word of God to His creation, man-kind. It was written by man but inspired by God through the guidance of the Holy Spirit. We believe the word of God is true, carries authority, is without error and connects to matters of our daily lives.

2 Timothy 3:16-17 | Proverbs 30:5-6 | Isaiah 40:8

Jesus 

We believe Jesus Christ was God in flesh and was born of the Holy Spirt to the virgin Mary. He performed numerous miracles as well as living a sinless life. His death and resurrection creates the only way to access God the Father.

Isaiah 53 | Colossians 2:9 | 1 Timothy 2:5 | Hebrews 4:15 | Mark 16:6 | Luke 1:27-35 | John 1:1 | Psalm 77:14 | John 14:6

Salvation

Through the ultimate sacrifice, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ we receive forgiveness and are saved from the penalty of sin. Salvation is a free gift given through the grace of God which can not be earned by works but is activated by our faith and confession in the death and resurrection of Christ.

John 3:16 | Romans 5:9 | Romans 10:9-10 | Acts 4:12 | Ephesians 2:8-9

Repentance

Repentance is our commitment to turn away from sin and follow Christ in every area of our lives, it is also through repentance that we receive forgiveness of our sins.

1 John 1:9 | Acts 2:38 | Acts 3:19 | Matthew 4:17 | Luke 15:7

Matthew 24:30, 44 | Acts 1:9-11 | 1 Thessalonians 4:15-17 | Revelation 1:7

Eternal Life

We believe that man has an eternal destination, either eternal life in union with God or eternal punishment: separation from God.

Matthew 25:34, 41 | John 3:36 | John 10:28 | Romans 6:23 | 1 John 5:11-13 

Health & Prosperity

We believe it is God’s desire for us to be healthy, successful, balanced and whole. And it is important for us to take care of our spiritual, physical, mental and emotion well being.

The Godhead 

We believe in one God eternally and equally existing as God the Father, Jesus the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Communion 

Communion also know as The Lord’s Supper is taken by believers in remembrance of Christ’s sacrifice on the cross.

The application of water baptism by immersion as a public declaration of our faith. Symbolising the death of the old life, and a rebirth into a renewed life in Christ Jesus.

We also believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit according to Acts 2:4 

Five-Fold Ministry

The five-fold ministry positions: Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers are gifts given to the church. These gifts are to equip believers, build the body of Christ and for the work of ministry.

Church

We believe in the spiritual unity of all who receive salvation and become followers of Christ. We are many members but one body with Christ as our head.

1 Corinthians 12:12-14 | Ephesians 1:22

Mankind

We believe man is made in the image and likeness of God and to have dominion over the earth. God created every human with a unique and specific purpose and to have fellowship with him.
