We affirm the following:

That the Bible is the Word of God, given and preserved for all generations. We believe it is accurate in all that it ultimately affirms, and is the authoritative standard by which we determine beliefs and conduct.

That God exists as three persons: The Father; Jesus Christ - His only Son - our Lord, who offers saving grace to all; and the Holy Spirit, who empowers men and women for service, and sanctifies them for God’s purpose.

That nothing can replace the importance of the local church, which is the body of Christ on earth, in the eternal purposes of God.

That entrance into the church is through the “new birth”, which is brought about by genuine repentance of sin, confession of faith in Christ as Saviour, and surrender to him as Lord.

That membership in the church is signified by joyful participation in its worship, fellowship, sacraments, witness, and by acceptance of its discipline.

That the presence and use of the charismata is essential in the local church and in Christian ministry.

That the victorious Christian life is built upon a correct understanding and exercise of the gifts and spiritual authority conveyed to the believer by the Lord.

That we believe in the resurrection of the dead at Christ’s return, in the certainty of God’s judgment, and in the inescapable result of that judgment for the just and the unjust, as foretold in the Scriptures.
