DOCTRINAL STATEMENT

In this day and age where wolves creep into the church in sheep’s clothing (Matt. 7:15, acts 20:29), a broadly evangelical stance and charisma is no longer adequate reason to attend a church. We believe a church should put its vision in writing (Habakkuk 2:2) so it can be called to test for non-compliance. For this reason, We set out the following:

 What we believe:

(I) THE BIBLE: That the Bible, consisting of all the books of the Old and New Testaments, is the Word of God, a supernaturally given revelation without error or misstatement in moral and spiritual teachings and record of historical facts.

(II) GOD: In the Trinity – that the eternal Godhead manifests Himself in Three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit; and that these three are one God but separate in personality and work.

(III) JESUS CHRIST: In the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious death and atonement for depraved man through His blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal and visible return in power and glory.

(IV) MAN: That man was created in the image of God, that he was tempted by Satan and fell, and that because of this total depravity, regeneration through the Holy Spirit is a necessity  for salvation.

(V) THE HOLY SPIRIT: That the Holy Spirit, the Third Person in the Trinity, though omnipresent from all eternity, took up His abode in the world in a special sense of the Day of Pentecost according the divine promise and dwells in every believer.  That the baptism of the Holy Spirit is strongly recommended for every Christian.  That the Fruit of the Spirit and the Gifts of the Spirit in the lives of believers are visible demonstrations of His presence.

(VI) RESURRECTION: In the bodily resurrection of both the saved and the lost: those who are saved unto the resurrection of life and those who are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.

(VII) COMMISSION: That God’s will for this age as expressed in the Great Commission involves the evangelisation of the world through the witness of every believer in Jesus Christ, and the making of disciples through the teaching of His Word in the local churches as a means of accomplishing His purpose.

(VIII) THE ANOINTING: That it is the anointing that breaks the yoke (Isa.10:27). That the anointing however is not a substitute for sound doctrine (2Tim.2:15).
