OUR STATEMENT OF FAITH
We
stand
firmly in the mainstream historical, biblical Christianity, confessing
to faith which the Christian Church has always held as essential and
crucial.
In accordance with the summary
of
historic creeds we assert :
The divine inspiration of the Bible, being entirely trust-worthy as our
all-sufficient, supremely authoritative source of faith and
conduct.
The Biblical self-revelation of the Godhead eternally existent in three
persons: the Father to whom all things are judged, the eternal and only
begotten Son, and the Holy Spirit our Comforter.
The universal sinfulness and guilt of human nature from the fall,
bringing everyone under God's wrath and condemnation.
The substitutionary sacrifice of the incarnate Lord Jesus Christ, the
only begotten Son of God, as the sole means of redemption from the
penalty and power of sin.
The justification of the sinner by God's grace through faith alone in
the atoning merits of Christ crucified and risen from the dead
The present reality of God the Holy Spirit indwelling, illuminating,
regenerating and sanctifying the believer
The expectation of the personal, visible return of the Lord Jesus
Christ to receive His own to Himself; the final judgment of the
unbelieving; and the eternal blessedness of the redeemed. 'Even so,
come, Lord Jesus!"
