What we believe

We believe:

• • The Bible is the true word of God, and is the only authority for all our belief and practice.

  • There is one God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, who is the ruler and creator of the Universe.

  • God created man in His own image, perfect, and for His honour and glory.

  • However, man disobeyed God and sinned, therefore everyone born into this world is a sinner, and must face the eternal wrath of God, unless by God's grace they repent of their sin.

  • God, in his mercy, sent his only Son, the Lord Jesus Christ into the world to save sinners. He lived a perfect life, and suffered and died on the cross, bearing the judgement of God against sin, for all those that believe and trust in Him.

  • The Lord Jesus Christ rose from the dead, and now lives forever to bring His people safe to Heaven at last.

There are many other Bible truths we believe besides these, but this is the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. 

We keep the New Testament ordinances of believer's baptism and the Lord's Supper. 

• • We baptise believers by fully immersing them in water on profession of their repentance towards God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, and as a public sign of their union with Christ in his death, burial and resurrection.

  • We believe that believer’s baptism is a prerequisite to communion at the Lord’s Supper. Only those who have been baptised and have satisfied the church officers of their faith and church order, may take part in the remembrance of our Saviour’s death.
