THE BIBLE:
The Bible is inspired of God, inerrant in the original documents and of
final authority in all matters of faith and practice.
THE TRINITY:
There is one God, eternally existent in three Persons – Father, Son and
Holy Spirit.
THE LORD JESUS CHRIST:
The Lord Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man. He was born of a virgin
and is sinlessly perfect. His sacrifice is substitutionary and representative. He rose bodily from the dead and ascended to His Father’s right
hand, where He now ministers as our Great Hight Priest. He will come
to rapture His Church and subsequently return to reign over the earth.
SALVATION:
Each member of the human race is fallen, sinful and lost. Regeneration
by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for the salvation of man. Redemption is wholly by the blood of Christ. Salvation is by grace,
through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.
THE HOLY SPIRIT:
The Holy Spirit indwells the believer who is thus empowered to live a
godly life.
SPIRITUAL GIFTS:
Christ, the risen Head, is the Giver of spiritual gifts to all believers.
Gifted individuals such as evangelists, pastors and teachers are responsible to Him for their service and are given “for the equipping of the
saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.”
THE CHURCH:
The Church began with the descent of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost and
is composed of all true believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. These believers are united to Him and to one another by the indwelling Spirit. The
Church’s calling, hope and destiny are heavenly, and its chief functions
are to glorify God and to witness for Christ until His return.
THE DAY OF THE LORD:
There will be a resurrection of the saved and of the lost; of the saved
unto eternal life and of the lost unto eternal and conscious judgment.
CHRISTIAN ORDINANCES:
There are two Christian ordinances: baptism and the Lord’s Supper.
Baptism by immersion signifies that the believer, having died with
Christ, is buried with Him in baptism and also is risen with Christ to
walk in newness of life. The Lord’s Supper is a remembrance feast, instituted by the Lord Himself exclusively for His own.
ETERNAL SECURITY:
Every true child of God possesses eternal life and being justified, sanctified and sealed with the Holy Spirit, is safe and secure for all eternity.
THE REIGN OF CHRIST:
The personal, imminent return of the Lord Jesus Christ to translate His
Church will be followed by the tribulation and the inauguration of
Christ’s reign over the earth. He will then deliver up the Kingdom to
God the Father, that the Triune God may be all in all.
