Organizational Statement of Faith: 

OUR STATEMENT OF FAITH
AS AN ORGANISATION ESTABLISHED UPON THE PRINCIPLES OF THE BIBLE ACCORDING TO ARTICLE II OF OUR BYE LAWS,

We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.

We believe that there is one God eternally existent in three persons : Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His Virgin Birth, in His Vicarious and atoning death through His shed Blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His return to earth in power and glory.

We believe that for salvation of sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.

We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a Godly life.

We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; that they are saved unto the resurrection of life and that they are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.

We believe in the spiritual unity of believers of our Lord Jesus Christ.

We believe that the only true basis of Christian fellowship is His Agape Love, which is greater than any difference we possess and without which we have no right to claim ourselves as Christians.
