Who We Are
Since 1984, we have been a growing church passionate about reaching people of all backgrounds with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Our Purpose
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. – Matthew 28:19-20
Our Beliefs
1. Scriptures
We believe that the Holy Bible, consisting of the Old Testament and the New Testament Scriptures was written by men divinely inspired and is a perfect treasure of Heavenly instruction; that it has God for its Author, salvation for its end, and truth without mixture of error for its matter; that it reveals the principles by which God will judge us and therefore is and shall remain to the end of the world, the true center of Christian union and the supreme standard by which all human conduct, creeds and opinions should be tried. We reject all modern versions and insist on the King James Version 1611 being used in all services. (II Timothy 3:16, 17; Isaiah 8:20; I Thessalonians 5:21)
2. God
We believe in the triune God, the Creator, Preserver and the Ruler of all things, eternally existing in three persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost; these three are one God, having precisely the same nature, attributes and perfections. (Genesis 1:1, 26; Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19, 20; John 1:1, 2; 10:30)
3. The Lord Jesus Christ
We believe in: a) His eternal existence as God: b) His incarnation by means of the virgin birth: c) His death on the cross as the substitutionary atonement for sin: d) His literal bodily resurrection from the dead: e) His present ministry of intercession in Heaven: f) His personal return to earth. (Hebrews 1:8; Isaiah 7:14; Luke 1:35; Romans 3:25; Hebrews 9:14; Luke 24:36-43; Acts 10:40, 41; Hebrews 8:1,2: I John 2:1; Acts 1:11; I Thessalonians 4:16)
4. Man
We believe that: a) God created man in His own image and in a state of innocency; b) man fell through the sin of disobedience; c) because of all this men are corrupted in body, mind and soul; d) all men are in need of redemption. (Genesis 1:26, 27; Romans 5:12, 19; Ephesians 2:3)
5. Salvation
We believe: a) that salvation is solely by grace through faith in the sacrificial death of our Lord Jesus Christ and His resurrection from the dead; b) that all who repent and receive Jesus are regenerated by the Holy Spirit and become children of God; c) that all who are truly saved are kept forever by the power of God. (Ephesians 2:8, 9; John 1:12; I Peter 1:5)
6. Eternal – Security
We believe once a person has truly become a child of God that he/she is eternally secure and that they will forever be a child of God. They are kept secure by the promise and power of God. (Ephesians 1:13; Philippians 1:6; John 10:28, 29; John 3:16, 36)
7. Church
We believe that the Lord’s church is a visible body of scripturally baptized believers who can trace a Succession of churches of like faith an order clean back to the days of Christ, who are associated together by covenant in the faith and fellowship of the Gospel, observing the ordinances of Christ, governed by His laws, and exercising the gifts, rights and privileges invested in them by His Word; that its only Scriptural officers and bishops or pastors and deacons, whose qualifications, claims and duties are defined in the Epistles to Timothy and Titus. (Matthew 18:17; 28:20; I Corinthians 1:1-13; 11:2; Acts 2:41; I Timothy 3)
8. Baptism (Ordinance)
We believe that Scriptural Baptism is done by the authority of a New Testament Baptist Church and is immersion in water of a believer, in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost to show forth in a solemn and beautiful emblem our faith in the crucified, buried and risen Saviour with its effect in our deatht to sin and resurrection to a new life. (Matthew 3:13; 28:19)
