We're an evangelical Movement
As a fellowship we fall within a branch of Christianity that has been labelled "Evangelical". In other words we have a strong commitment to the gospel and we hold to the following beliefs:
- The unity of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit in the Godhead.
- The sovereignty of God in creation, revelation, redemption and final judgement.
- The divine inspiration and entire trustworthiness of Holy Scriptures, as originally given, and its supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct.
- The universal sinfulness and guilt of all men since the fall, rendering them subject to God's wrath and condemnation.
- Redemption from the guilt, penalty and power of sin through the sacrificial death (as our representative and substitute) of Jesus Christ only, the Incarnate Son of God.
- The bodily resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ from the dead and His ascension to the right hand of God the Father.
- The presence and power of the Holy Spirit in the work of regeneration.
- The justification of the sinner by the grace of God through faith alone.
- The indwelling work of the Holy Spirit in the believer.
- The one Holy Universal Church which is the body of Christ and to which all true believers belong.
- The expectation of the personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ.
This "Statement of Faith" represents our core beliefs.
