We believe in
this...
The Bible - The Word of
God
The inerrancy and infallibility
of the Holy Scriptures as originally given; their
authority and all sufficiency, as not only containing,
but being in themselves, the Word of God; the
reliability of the New Testament in its testimony to the
character and authorship of the Old Testament; and the
need of the teaching of the Holy Spirit for a true and
spiritual understanding of the whole. The Holy
Scriptures constitute our only standard of faith and
rule of conduct, and are the sixty six books of the Old
and New Testaments as contained in the index of the 1611
Authorised Version.
The Father, The Son, The Holy
Spirit - One God
The Trinity of the Godhead as
revealed in the Scriptures - The Father being God, The
Son being God, The Holy Spirit being God, these being
equal in power and glory, one Lord God Almighty -
Sovereign in Creation,Providence and
Redemption.
Jesus Christ - True God -
True Man
The essential, absolute and
eternal deity of the Lord Jesus Christ; His conception
by the Holy Ghost; His birth of the virgin Mary; His
real but sinless humanity; the authority of His teaching
and the infallibility of all His utterances; His
voluntary humiliation in life as a man of sorrows
cumulating in His substitutionary and atoning death
whereby He shed His precious blood as a sacrifice for
sins, His bodily resurrection on the third day; His
ascension into heaven as the only and eternal mediator
between God and man; His present high priestly
intercession for His people at the right hand of the
Father; And his personal return in power and glory.
The Holy Spirit - Author and
Giver of Life
The personality and the deity
of the Holy Spirit who inspired holy men to write the
scriptures, authenticating their writing and ministry by
the means of supernatural gifts which he has since
withdrawn. Through him alone the soul is born again to
saving repentance and faith, and by Him the saints are
sanctified through the truth. The necessity for His work
in ministry, work and worship.
Fallen Man - A
Sinner
The universal and total
depravity of man in the sight of God as the consequence
of the fall; his exposure to everlasting punishment; his
inability to will any spiritual good accompanying
salvation, and therefore the necessity for regeneration.
