What We Believe

What We Believe

  • God – In one God, who exists as three different but equal persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
  • The Bible – That the Bible is the Word of God, and that there is no better guide on earth as to what we should believe and how we should live our lives.
  • Men & Women – That everyone is born a sinner, and as such is subject to God’s wrath and the punishment of death, which means eternal separation from God in Hell.
  • Getting to Heaven – Repentance of sin and turning in faith to accept Jesus Christ as Saviour is the only way of salvation from the wrath of God and His ultimate eternal punishment.
  • Jesus Christ – Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, alone paid the penalty for sin and as such is the only Redeemer of men. Having risen from the grave Jesus Christ now resides in Heaven from where He rules the nations until the day of His glorious return, a day which will usher in His judgment.
  • Being a Christian – That is the duty of Christians by the help of the Holy Spirit to strive to put to death sin and to live a life of glory based on what God has written in His Word.
