THE BIBLE
We believe the Bible to be the fully inspired, infallible, inerrant, and authoritative Word of God.
(2Timothy 3:16, 2Peter 1:20-21, Matthew 5:18, Psalm 19:7-11)
ONE GOD
We believe God is one (triune). He is eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
(Genesis 1:1-2, Isaiah 9:6, Matthew 28:19,, Matthew 3:16-17, Colossians 1:15-17, 2Corinthians 13:14)
FATHER
We believe God the Father is the first person of the Trinity and He is the Creator of the heavens and the earth. He is eternal, unchanging, omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, and omnibenevolent. He is fully just and fully holy; a Sovereign King and Sustainer of the entire universe.
(Isaiah 9:6, John 14:13, Matthew 6:6, Isaiah 64:8, Proverbs 15:3, Ephesians 1:3, Jeremiah 32:17, Genesis 2:7, Nehemiah 9:6)
JESUS CHRIST
We believe Jesus Christ is the second person of the Trinity and is the only begotten eternal Son of God who became flesh in order to reveal God to mankind. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin, and lived a sinless life. Through His substitutionary death on the cross and His bodily resurrection, Jesus made provision for the redemption of mankind from sin. We believe He ascended to heaven and is now the Head of the Church. We believe in His personal return in power and glory.
(Matthew 3:16, John 1:14, Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:18, Luke 1:35, Hebrews 4:15, 1 John 3:5, Philip 2:8, Romans 8:34, Acts 3:15, Romans 6:8-11, Acts 1:9-12,)
HOLY SPIRIT
We believe God the Holy Spirit glorifies the Lord Jesus Christ in all that He does. He convicts the world of its guilt and sin. He regenerates sinners and in Him they are united with Christ and adopted as heirs in the family of God. He also indwells, guides, and empowers believers for sanctified living and service. We believe God the Holy Spirit continues to work supernatural miracles, healings, signs and wonders, and gives spiritual gifts to the believers for the edification and growth of the church and to draw people to Jesus.
(John 16:14, John 16:8, Titus 3:5-6, Ephesians 4:2-6, Romans 8:15, I Corinthians 3:16, Romans 8:26-27, Luke 12:11-12, Matthew 3:11, Romans 15:16, Galatians 5: 22-24, Hebrews 2:4, Romans 15:18-19, Mark 16:17, John 14:12, 1 Corinthians 12:8-10)
SALVATION
We believe salvation is the gift of God. Jesus made salvation possible by taking the punishment for our sins on the cross. We believe Jesus is the only way for salvation for all sinners. We believe receiving salvation through Jesus Christ isn’t the end of the process of being saved, rather it is the beginning of a lifelong process of becoming like Jesus through the work of the Holy Spirit.
(Romans 10:9, Ephesians 2:8-9, Acts 4:12, John 14:6, Philippians 2:12, 1 Peter 2:21-22, Romans 12:2, John 3:16.
ORDINANCE
Baptism
We believe the Baptism by immersion is commanded by the Scriptures, and every believer should be baptized in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. And we believe that everyone who repents and believes in Christ as Saviour and Lord is to be baptized. We believe baptism is a sign through which believers proclaim to the world that they have died with Christ and that they also have been raised with Him to walk in newness of life.
(Mark 16:16, John 3:23, Acts 8:36-38, Romans 6:3-6, Matthew 28:19-20, Acts 2:41, Matthew 3:11)
Lord’s supper
We believe The Lord’s supper is a powerful reminder of what Christ had do for the redemption of His people. The bread and wine are a symbolic representation of Jesus’s body and His blood. We believe that every believer who is baptized should part-take in the this new covenant to remember Jesus’s death (atonement).
(I Corinthians 11:17-34, Hebrews 10:25, Matthew 26:26-28, John 6:53-58, Acts 2:42-46, Luke 22:19-20)
MARRIAGE
We believe marriage is a covenant relationship between one man and one woman where the two become one before God. We believe the Biblical marriage reflects Christ and His bride in love together.
(Genesis 1:27-28, Genesis 2:24, Ecclesiastes 4:9, Colossians 3:14, Ephesians 5:25-33, 1Peter 3:7)
MISSION
We believe that all believers are called to obey the great commission. God is the greatest missionary, and He desires that everyone should be saved. He is passionately committed to spreading His glory to all nations. We believe every believer is called to work with Him to fulfill His mission.
(Matthew 28:19-20, Acts 1:8, Matthew 24:14, Romans 10:13-15, John 20:21 Isaiah 6:8, 1 Peter 2:3-5, Isaiah 45:22 Mark 10:45)
CHURCH
We believe the church is the body of Jesus Christ. Every believer should be committed to fellowship with the believing local Church. We believe church is not about buildings, rather it is about believers coming together to worship, teach the word, fellowship, encourage, love and to care for one another’s physical and spiritual needs.
(Matthew 18:20, 1 Corinthians 3:16, Acts 2:46-47, Romans 12:4-5, 1 Corinthians 14:26, Hebrews 10:25, John 4:24, Acts 2:42, 1John 4:11, Acts 14:23)
