The following is a summary of what Christians believe. We uphold the fundamental truths of the Christian faith, including:
- The divine inspiration and infallibility of
Holy Scripture as originally given and its supreme authority in all matters
of faith and conduct.
- The unity of the Father, the Son and the Holy
Spirit in the Godhead.
- The universal sinfulness and guilt of humanity
since the fall, rendering men and women subject to God's wrath and condemnation.
- The conception of Jesus Christ by the Holy
Spirit and his birth by the Virgin Mary.
- Redemption from the guilt, penalty and power
of sin only though the sacrificial death, as our representative and substitute,
of Jesus Christ, the incarnate Son of God.
- The bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ from
the dead.
- The necessity of the work of the Holy Spirit
to make the death of Christ effective in the individual sinner, granting him
or her repentance towards God, and faith in Jesus Christ.
- The indwelling and work of the Holy Spirit
in the believer.
- The expectation of the personal return of
the Lord Jesus Christ.
