Our Beliefs

We believe there is one GOD, existing in three persons...
of the FATHER, SON and HOLY SPIRIT...
each possessing all the fullness of GOD.

GOD created humans to have fellowship with HIM, but they rejected GOD
by sinfully going their own way.
As a result, everyone needs GOD's salvation.

We believe that salvation must be received personally by repentance
and through faith in JESUS CHRIST alone.
It is achieved by the shed blood of JESUS CHRIST
and regeneration by the HOLY SPIRIT.
Its purely the work of GOD's saving grace, not human effort.

We believe that JESUS CHRIST is GOD
Who lived a sinless life on earth through the virgin birth.
HE paid for our sins by dying on the cross as our substitute.
HE rose from the dead and is the only Mediator between us and GOD.
HE will return to earth in full power and glory to conclude history.

We believe that the HOLY SPIRIT is GOD Who draws sinners to CHRIST.
HE convicts us of sin and transforms us into new creations.
HE empowers and equips believers for personal growth and service to the church.
We believe in the practicing of the Gifts of the HOLY SPIRIT.

We believe that the church's role is to glorify GOD,
make disciples and serve those in need.
Every believer is a witness for JESUS CHRIST
while conversion is the work of the HOLT SPIRIT.

We believe that at the end, everyone will experience bodily resurrection and judgement.

Those forgiven through CHRIST will enjoy eternal fellowship with GOD in heaven.
Those who rejected GOD will be eternally separated from GOD's presence.

We believe that the BIBLE is the sole basis for our belief.
It is uniquely inspired, without error and the final authority
on all matters of faith and conduct.
