Statement Of Faith

The Corporation shall continually and steadfastly uphold and maintain the Statement of Faith as hereinafter set out to wit:

We believe that God has revealed Himself as a Trinity in unity, in the persons the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, eternally existent.

We believe that our Lord Jesus Christ, was fully God and fully man, and we believe in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood for all who put their trust in Him. We believe in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.

We believe in the divine inspiration and entire trustworthiness of the Bible as originally given and in its supreme authority in all matters.

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

We believe in the ministry of the Holy Spirit by Whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life, and by Whose power the Christian is enabled to witness.

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

We believe in the spiritual unity of all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ, the one Church, which is the body of Christ.
