Statement of Faith
1. The Scripture of the Old and the New Testament are inspired by God and inerrant in the original writing and are of supreme and final authority in faith and life.
2. One God exists eternally in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
3. Man was created in the image of God. He sinned and thereby incurred physical and spiritual death; all human beings are born with a sinful nature.
4. Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and is true God and true Man.
5. The Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins as a substitutionary sacrifice, and all who in repentance receive Him by faith as Saviour and Lord are justified through His shed blood, being born again and thereby becoming children of God.
6. The crucified body of the Lord Jesus Christ was raised from the dead. He ascended into heaven and lives there for His own as High Priest and Advocate.
7. The personal and imminent return of Jesus Christ is the believer’s hope.
8. The dead in Christ shall be resurrected to everlasting blessedness, the lost to everlasting punishment.
