What we believe
FELLOWSHIP
We believe fellowship consists of a gathering of people who have the same confession, that Jesus is the Christ the Son of the living God and we call this the church, also we have the same communication.
The Communication: We subject ourselves in obedience and submission to the authority at God's word, Matthew 16:13-20. We believe that fellowship should not be forsaken, Hebrews 10:23-25 and as the church, we should participate in the pillars of the new testament church correspondingly.
Continuing in the word of God,
Prayer,
Fellowship,
Communion,
Baptism
and Church leadership.
Elders/Pastors/Deacons Acts 2:40-42.
THE TRINITY
We believe in one personal, transcended and divine God. The creator of all who is external and He exist as three separate persons; Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
GOD THE FATHER
We believe God The Father is the Almighty infinite God who is the Father of Jesus Christ. He sent Jesus Christ into the world to seek and save that which is lost.
JESUS CHRIST
We believe that Jesus Christ, though fully God, became a man for the suffering of death. We believe that He is the promised Messiah, born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, provided for the atonement of our sins by His vicarious death on the Cross, bodily resurrected, ascended back to the right hand of God the Father and ever lives to make intercession for us. After Jesus ascended to Heaven, He poured out His Holy Spirit on the believers in Jerusalem, enabling them to fulfill His command to preach the Gospel to the entire world, an obligation shared by all believers today.
THE HOLY SPIRIT
We believe in the person and work of the Holy Spirit who indwells, seals and empowers every believer, baptizing them into the Body of Christ. We further believe that the Holy Spirit will come upon any believer who asks in faith, enabling him/her to preach the Gospel in power. We also believe all of the gifts of the Holy Spirit mentioned in the Scriptures are valid for today and that they are to be exercised within the scriptural guidelines set forth by the Spirit. We believe that love is more important than all the gifts and without this love all exercise of spiritual gifts is worthless.
SPIRITUAL WARFARE
We believe in a personal devil called satan and fallen angels who are destined to spend eternity in hell. We believe they now seek to decieve people and defeat the work of God. However, they can be resisted by believers, as they are indwelt by the Holy Spirit, protected by God and interceded by the Lord Jesus. We also believe that Christ death on the cross broke every curse and there are no curses for a born again believer.
INERRANCY
We believe in the inerrancy of Scripture: That the Bible, Old and New Testaments is inspired, infallible Word of God, a complete and final written revelation of God. We reject doctrine viewpoints or spiritual phenomena which are based soley on experience. We look to the Word of God for the basis of all our faith and practice.
ESCHATOLOGY
We wait the pre-tribulational rapture of the church, and we believe that at the Second Coming of Christ He will visibly set up his throne on earth and personally rule with His saints for 1000 years. This motivates us to Holy living, heartfelt worship, committed service, deligent study of God's Word, regular fellowship and participation in baptisim by immersion and in Holy Communion. We believe that the nation of Israel still has a special place in God's plan and that all the promises of the God of Israel will be fulfilled.
SERVICE STYLE
We believe worship of God should be spiritual. Therefore, we remain flexible and yielded to the leading of the Holy Spirit to direct our worship.
WORSHIP
We believe worship of God should be inspirational. Therefore, music is an important part of our worship. We sing psalms, hyms and spiritual psalms.
PERSONAL GROWTH
We believe worship of God should be intelligent. Therefore, our services are designed with great emphasis upon the teaching of the Word of God that He might instruct us how He should be worshiped. We seek to teach the Word of God in such a way that its message can be applied to an individual's life, leading that person to greater maturity in Christ.
SIN
We believe that all people are by nature separated from God and responsible for their own sin, but that salvation, redemption and forgiveness are freely offered to all by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. When a person repents of sin and accepts Jesus Christ as personal Savior and Lord, trusting Him to save, that person is immediately born again and sealed by the Holy Spirit, all his/her sins are forgiven and that person becomes a child of God.
CHURCH GOVERNMENT
We believe Jesus Christ is the head of the Body, His church and that church government should be simplistic rather than complex and bureaucratic. We desire to be under the authority of the word of God and led by the Holy Spirit in all the ministry of the church.
REGENERATION
We believe that you must be born again before you can enter the Kingdom of heaven and thats only in Jesus Christ can someone be saved. We believe worship of God should be fruitful. Therefore, we look for His love in our lives as the supreme manifestation that we have been truly worshiping Him.
