WHAT WE
BELIEVE
We’re a church family that is passionate about our relationship with Father God and uncovering His design for our lives. We believe that both our destiny and purpose are wrapped up in His love for us. As we’re conformed to the image of Christ, so we step into our destiny; and as we live from our identity as a new creation, purpose is illuminated.
​
Each day brings with it invitations to intimately encounter and be inspired by Him. To be overwhelmed by His love and extravagantly spoilt by His grace. To experience what it is to have Him live and move and have His being through us in a way that is unique. We are rediscovering ourselves as a creation of His love and beginning to spark as the light to the world.
THE DIETY
THERE IS ONE GOD, ETERNALLY EXISTENT IN THREE PERSONS: GOD THE FATHER, GOD THE SON, AND GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT.
THE BIBLE
THE BIBLE IS THE ONLY DIVINELY INSPIRED, INFALLIBLE, AND AUTHORITATIVE WRITTEN WORD OF GOD, AND WE RELY ON IT AS THE ULTIMATE TRUTH.
JESUS CHRIST
JESUS CHRIST IS THE SON OF GOD, BORN OF THE VIRGIN MARY. HE LIVED A SINLESS LIFE, PERFORMED MANY MIRACLES, GAVE HIS LIFE THROUGH CRUCIFIXION ON THE CROSS AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR US. HE DESCENDED TO HELL, WAS RESURRECTED FROM THE DEAD, ASCENDED TO HEAVEN, AND SITS AT THE RIGHT HAND OF THE FATHER. ONE DAY HE WILL RETURN TO THIS EARTH IN POWER AND GLORY.
SALVATION
WE ARE SAVED BY GOD’S GRACE, THROUGH FAITH IN THE PERSON AND WORK OF JESUS CHRIST. ANYONE CAN BE RESTORED TO FELLOWSHIP WITH GOD THROUGH REPENTING, BELIEVING, AND RECEIVING JESUS AS PERSONAL SAVIOR. THE HOLY SPIRIT CONVICTS US OF SIN AND REGENERATES US INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD. HEAVEN AND HELL ARE REAL, AND PERSONAL REPENTANCE AND FAITH IN THE COMPLETED WORK OF JESUS CHRIST – IN HIS LIFE, DEATH, AND RESURRECTION – IS THE ONLY MEANS OF SALVATION.
THE REDEMPTIVE WORK OF CHRIST PROVIDES SALVATION AND WHOLENESS FOR EVERY AREA OF MAN’S LIFE. THESE ARE RECEIVED BY PERSONAL FAITH.
WATER BAPTISM & THE BAPTISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
WATER BAPTISM SIGNIFIES THE CLEANSING POWER OF THE BLOOD OF CHRIST IN THE WASHING AWAY OF ALL SIN AND REPRESENTS OUR NEW LIFE IN HIM (MATTHEW 3:15-17, 1 PETER 3:21). WE BELIEVE WATER BAPTISM IS AVAILABLE TO ANY PERSON WHO HAS ACCEPTED JESUS CHRIST AS THEIR LORD AND SAVIOR.
ACCORDING TO ACTS 2:4, THE BAPTISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WITH THE EVIDENCE OF SPEAKING IN TONGUES IS GIVEN TO BELIEVERS WHO ASK FOR IT AND RECEIVE IT. THIS BAPTISM SETS US APART, GIVING US POWER AND ENABLING TO DO THE MIRACULOUS WORKS OF GOD IN EVERYDAY LIFE.
THE CHURCH
THE ESTABLISHMENT OF GOD’S KINGDOM ON THE EARTH – BRINGING HEAVEN TO EARTH – IS THE PRIMARY FUNCTION OF THE CHURCH IN EACH SUCCESSIVE GENERATION.
