The basis of our faith

The Bible - We believe the Bible, as originally given, to be without error, the fully inspired and infallible Word of God and the supreme and final authority in all matters of faith and conduct.

The Trinity - We believe that the Godhead exists co-equally and co-eternally in three persons Father, Son and Holy Spirit and that these three are one God, sovereign in creation, providence and redemption.

The Saviour - We believe in the true and proper deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His real and complete humanity, in His sinless life, in His authoritative teaching, in His substitutionary and atoning sacrifice through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, in His heavenly intercession and in His second advent to receive His Church.

The Holy Spirit - We believe that Holy Spirit makes us aware when we are failing to follow God’s teaching. He then prompts us to ask God to forgive us for these sins and our guilt is taken away. We believe that in order to live the holy and fruitful lives that God intends for us, we need to be filled with spiritual power through the baptism in the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit enables us to use spiritual gifts including speaking in tongues. He has individually equipped us so that we can successfully achieve His purpose for our lives which is to worship God, fulfil our role in the Church and serve the community in which we live.

Mankind - We believe in the universal sinfulness of all men since the Fall, rendering man subject to God's wrath and condemnation.

Salvation - We believe in the necessity for salvation of the repentance towards God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ by which the sinner is pardoned and accepted as righteous in God's sight. This justification is imputed by the grace of God because of the atoning work of Christ, is received by faith alone and is evidenced by the Fruit of the Spirit and a holy life.

The Church - We believe in the spiritual unity and the priesthood of all believers in Christ and these comprise the universal Church, the Body of Christ.

The Ministry - We believe in the ministries that Christ has set in His Church, namely, apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers, and in the present operation of the manifold Gifts of the Holy Spirit according to the New Testament.

The Ordinances - We believe in the baptism of believers by immersion in water in obedience to the command of Christ and in the commemoration of Christ's death by the observance of the Lord's Supper until His return.

The Commission - We believe that the gospel embraces the needs of the whole man and that the Church is therefore commissioned to preach the gospel to the world and to fulfil a ministry of healing and deliverance to the spiritual and physical needs of mankind.

The Coming King - We believe in the personal, physical and visible return of the Lord Jesus Christ to reign in power and glory

The Future State - We believe in the resurrection of the dead and in the final judgement of the world, the eternal conscious bliss of the righteous and the eternal conscious punishment of the wicked.

 

Our Mission

By proclaiming Jesus Christ, making disciples, and developing people's ministries we seek to establish the Kingdom of God in the areas, where God has placed us. As Pentecostal Churches we desire to be Spirit filled people, experiencing God's presence, exercising the gifts of the Holy Spirit and expecting signs and wonders. We seek to establish congregations in strategic positions where they will be beacons of light piercing the darkness and revealing Jesus.
