Scriptures:
We believe that the Bible is a collection of 66 books written over the period of 1500 years by 40 different authors under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit and that it was written without error or contradiction. We also believe the King James 1611 is the preserved Word of God for the English speaking people.
Virgin Birth:
We believe that Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God: that He was conceived in the womb of Mary, a virgin, by direct supernatural action of God.
Salvation:
We believe that Salvation by Grace through Christ is the only way to achieve eternal life in Heaven. It is in fact a free gift from God and cannot be earned through any works of the flesh.
Heaven:
We believe God has prepared a place for those who have accepted His Son as their Lord and Saviour. We believe that Heaven is a real literal place, which is where the Throne of God is located.
Hell:
We believe that Hell is a real literal place prepared for Satan and his angels; that it is a place of present, everlasting, conscious suffering and punishment of the unbelieving dead.
Creation:
We believe in the Genesis account of Creation and that it is to be accepted literally and not allegorically or figuratively. We believe that man was created by the direct act of God, making him in God’s own image and likeness. We also believe that all things were created by God.
Church:
We believe the church is a local called out assembly of baptized believers associated by a covenant of faith and fellowship of the Gospel, observing the ordinances of Christ (Baptism and The Lords Supper). We believe the mission of the church is to carry out the great commission, first to win the lost, second to baptize them and them thirdly to teach and instruct them as He commanded us to do.
Resurrection of Christ:
We believe that Christ died upon the cross and was placed in a tomb. He was in this tomb for the period of three days. We believe that on the third day Christ bodily arose out of the grave and is now sitting on the right had of the Father in Heaven.
Return of Christ:
We believe that very soon Christ will return and “Rapture out” the children of God. We believe this could happen at any moment and that no man knows the hour in which Christ will return.
Security of the Believer:
We believe that once you place your faith and trust in Christ and accept Him as Saviour, that you can never lose the Salvation that He gives you. We believe the statement: “ Once Saved Always Saved”.
