Our Statement of Faith
Our Values
What we believe is embodied in our tenets of faith as set out hereunder:
- We believe in one God eternal, Almighty Creator, Sustainer and Ruler of all creation as existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
- We believe that the Bible is the Word of God written by holy men of God as the Holy Spirit inspired them. We accept it as the final and supreme authority of our lives and faith. Everything in this constitution that is not in its accordance or according to its spirit should be dealt away with for its supremacy is also above this constitution.
- We believe in Jesus Christ the only Son of God the Father, true God in true man who descended from heaven to be conceived of the Holy Spirit and was born by the Virgin Mary.
- We believe that man was created by God in his own image and that, due to his sin man incurred death both physically and spiritually. Because of this man inherits death at birth.
- We believe in the death of Jesus Christ for our sins by crucifixion on Calvary, His burial, His resurrection and His ascension to heaven. We also believe that He is seated at the right hand side of the Father where He is our Intercessor and High Priest.
- We believe that all who hear the Gospel, repent of their sins and accept Christ by faith as their personal Savior and Lord, their sins are forgiven and they become children of God for they are born again of the Holy Spirit and are justified by faith.
- We believe that at the time appointed of God the Father, Christ will come again to take His Church and establish His Kingdom on earth.
- We believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit as evidenced by speaking in tongues, empowering and equipping believers for service with the accompanying gifts of the Holy Spirit and in fellowship with Him.
- We believe in the divine ordained ministry of an Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor and Teacher.
- We believe in one true church made of those redeemed by Jesus Christ and regenerated by the Holy Spirit, that the local church on earth should take its character from this concept of the church. That the new birth and personal confession of Christ are essential for church membership.
- We believe that Jesus Christ is the head of the Church and that the church is His body fulfilling His will on earth.
- We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ appointed two ordinances, namely baptism in water and the Lord’s supper to be observed as acts of obedience and as perpetual witness to the cardinal facts of Christian faith that:
Baptism is the immersion of a believer into the water as a confession of identity with Christ in burial and resurrection, and that the Lord’s Supper is the partaking of the emblems symbolic of the Saviour’s broken body and the shed blood in remembrance of His sacrificial death until He comes.
- We believe in the Day of Judgment where Christ will judge both the living and the dead, which will be preceded by the resurrection of the just and the unjust, to eternal blessedness for the just and to eternal banishment for the unjust.
- We believe in sanctification as taught in the scripture as a condition of seeing God. For without holiness no man can see God.
- We believe in divine healing as provided for in the Old Testament and are an integral part of the Gospel in the New Testament.
