The Scriptures of the Old and New Testament are divine in origin and are, therefore, the supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct. (2 Timothy 3:16)

The Gospel message is the Good News of Jesus Christ to all humanity. Sin and disobedience to God has caused the separation of humanity from God. The Gospel message is that there is only one way of reconciliation available – that is, a person can be restored to a right relationship with the Creator only in and through the finished work of Jesus Christ upon the cross at Calvary. The Gospel is clearly defined in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4. Jesus is clearly defined in Colossians 1: 13-19.

Was by a supernatural act of God by which He brought the universe into existence in six literal successive 24-hour days. On the seventh day God rested and viewed this creation as finished and completed without any evolutionary processes. Genesis 1:1 – 2:24.

Is the Deity, and the oneness of the Three Persons of the Godhead – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (John 14: 25-26).

Man by his voluntary and conscious choice of sin fell from his original state of innocence to that of condemnation. All men are sinners by heredity from Adam, and consequently are unable to meet the standards of God’s holiness – therefore needing a Saviour (Romans 3:23).

Jesus Christ is the only way of Salvation from eternal death through sin. He died for our sins and rose again for our justification. The assurance of eternal life as believers is by faith in Him alone (John 3: 16-18, Romans 5: 6-11).

A person is not saved or redeemed by the works they do. A person is saved by the finished work of Jesus Christ and nothing else. The outward works a believer does is a result of obedience to God within the person, and are a result of the work of God that has taken place in the inner person from the moment of their salvation (James 2: 14-17).

Is anything which is contrary to the holy character and perfect will of God as revealed in the written Word of God and is also disobedience to the spoken word of God revealed through the believer’s relationship with Him (Matthew 4:4). The written Word of God is the supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct.

The role of the Holy Spirit is to indwell and equip the life of the believer. The Holy spirit dwells within all born again believers to equip them with spiritual guidance and blessings required for our conduct (John 14:26). Equipped with the Holy Spirit, spiritual gifts are manifest as God wills for the purposes of God. At the moment of salvation, the believer receives the Holy Spirit, without the receiving of the Holy Spirit, a person cannot be saved (Ephesians 1: 13-14).

There is a time coming when mankind will stand before the Almighty God and be judged by Him for the deeds they have done. There is a Great White Throne judgment where God will open the Lamb’s Book of Life and those whose names do not appear in it will be judged according to their rejection of His Son as Saviour (Revelation 20:12). The believer will not be subjected to the Great White Throne judgment as they are already redeemed by Jesus Christ and have their name written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.

Is a literal place that is prepared for the Satan and his angels, and becomes the abode of those identified with Satan and of all those who reject the person of Jesus Christ as their Saviour. (Revelation 20: 9-15)

Is the congregation of born-again believers in fellowship with one another and with Jesus Christ as their Lord, walking in fellowship with Him and with each other; with Christ as the Head, proclaiming the truth of the Gospel. (Hebrews 10: 24-25 and Acts 2: 42)

Is a real and active created being who seeks to snare and control the lives of mankind. Originally created by God as an angel of great beauty and brightness of person, and being an angel of great power and wisdom until sin was found in him, when he sought to assume the position and place of God. He was deposed from his position by God and became an adversary to God and mankind. (Isaiah 14: 12-15)

Is the eternal Son of God. He came into the world incarnate for the forgiveness of sins (Matthew 1:21), and was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin named Mary of the tribe of Judah. In His incarnation He was of a real human physical nature of man (spirit, soul and body), and lived a life of absolute sinlessness. In His death, He made a full and complete atonement for our sins. His death was predetermined, voluntary, vicarious, sacrificial, expiatory, propitiatory, redemptive and substitutionary in the sinner’s place. After His crucifixion, He rose from the dead on the third day, and appeared before many witness (Luke 24: 39-40), and ascended into heaven. He is the only mediator between God and man.

Is the personal and imminent return of the Lord Jesus Christ, to judge those who have rejected Him for their sin. (Revelation 19: 11-16)

There are only two ordinances God commands the believer to participate in, the Believers Baptism, and Communion.

Baptism is the outward proclamation before the fellowship of witnesses of the inward experience of being born again and receiving Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour. Everyone who receives Jesus as their Saviour is instructed to be baptised (Acts 2:38). This is exemplified by the act of Jesus’ baptism, which ‘fulfilled all righteousness’. The ordinance of baptism is only for those at an age of understanding and is by full immersion.

Communion is the taking of the bread and wine symbolic of the body and blood of Jesus, sacrificed for our atonement. The context of communion is a full meal, known as the Passover Feast that Jesus partook with His disciples when He ordained the practice of Communion. The primary purpose of Communion is the remembering of Jesus, and thus celebrating the liberty and grace we have now received through His sacrifice on our behalf. The secondary purpose of Communion is the fellowship of the believers, considering each other’s needs and edifying each other in The Faith (1 Corinthians 11:23-34). Thus, the ordinance of Communion is the gathering together of the believers over a meal to remember Jesus, and the believer is commanded to participate in this ordinance (Luke 22:19).
