Our Statement Of Faith

GOD.
There is one God, who exists eternally in three distinct persons; 
the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. He is unchageable in His 
holiness, justice, wisdom and love. He is the Almighty Creator, 
Saviour, and Judge who sustains and governs all things according 
to His sovereign will.

THE LORD JESUS CHRIST
He is fully God and fully Man. He was conceived by the Holy 
Spirit, born of a virgin, and lived a sinless life in obedience to 
the Father. He taught with authority and all His words are true. 
On the cross He died in the place of sinners, bearing punishment 
for their sin and redeeming them by His blood. He rose from the 
dead and, in His resurrection body, ascended into heaven where He 
is exalted Lord of all. He now intercedes for His people in the 
very presence of God.

THE HOLY SPIRIT
The Holy Spirit has been sent from heaven to glorify Christ and to 
apply Christ's work of salvation. He convicts sinners, imparts 
spiritual life, and gradually gives a true understanding of the 
Scriptures. He indwells all true believers, not just a particular 
section of them, bringing an eventual assurance of salvation and 
increasing likeness to Christ. He builds up the Church and 
empowers its members for worship, service and mission.

THE BIBLE
God reveals Himself to us through the Bible - which consists of 
Old and New Testaments, and nothing further. Every word was 
inspired by God even though transmitted through purely human 
authors. The Bible, as originally given,is in its entirety the 
Word of God and is fully reliable in fact and doctrine. The Bible 
speaks with authority which is final and is sufficient in matters 
of belief and practise.

THE HUMAN RACE
All men and women, being created in the image of God, have 
inherent and equal dignity. Their greatest purpose is to approach 
God in faith, coming to worship and adore Him. As the result of 
the original Fall of our first parents, every aspect of human 
nature and behaviour has become marred and corrupted. Every man 
and woman is without genuine spiritual life and stands condemned 
under God's law, until they become joined to Christ.

SALVATION
Salvation is entirely a matter of God's grace and cannot be 
merited nor earned by us! It has been accomplished by the Lord 
Jesus Christ and is offered through the Christian Gospel. God, in 
His love, forgives sinners whom He calls, granting them repentance 
and faith. All who believe in Jesus Christ are justified by faith 
alone. Good works result from this work of God; but they are the 
result - not the cause - of God's grace. Believers are adopted 
into the family of God (the kingdom of God) even in this present 
life. They enter the presence of God at death, and - at the time 
of the resurrection - fully inherit Eternal Life.

THE CHURCH
The Church should be seen as the invisible, or spiritual, Church 
of all time. Even now in heaven God sees His Church as One Body. 
This Body is made visible, mainly, through local congregations 
where the Word of God is preached and converts are added. The 
Church also upholds the Two Signs (or, sacraments.) The duty of 
the Church is to feed the flock and to take the Gospel to the 
world. True fellowship can only exist between various 
congregations where all are faithful to the Gospel.

THE SIGNS (OR, ORDINANCES, OR SACRAMENTS.)
These are Baptism and Communion, which Jesus stated should be 
performed by His people. We should not add to these because of the 
ever-present danger of legalism entering the Body. Communion, or 
The Lord's Supper, commemorates Christ's sacrifice but it is not a 
regular re-sacrifice since this one sacrifice is sufficient for 
all time. Baptism is an important and meaningful symbol of entry 
into the Church. But all the blessings of these signs are only 
received by faith and are meaningless for any not truly in the 
Body.

THE FUTURE
The Lord Jesus Christ will return in full glory to this earth. He 
will raise the dead, and the Great Judgement will commence. The 
New Heavens and New Earth will follow in which the saved will 
enjoy Eternal Life.
