The Authority of Scripture

We accept the Bible as the full revelation of Jesus Christ, the Son of Almighty

God, and seek to approve all things according to the Word of God. We are

committed to believing God to fulfill every promise contained in Scripture.

Christ only and seek to serve Jesus as Lord through the whole of our lives.

church, to preach the gospel to every person, seeking to draw them to

of others and multiplied through the planting of churches.

power of the Holy Spirit. (Ephesians 4:11-12)

As part of the Body of Christ we seek the unity of the Spirit with every

believer and with all expressions of the church that confess faith in

Jesus Christ. We desire to co-operate with the church in our region, and

overseas in order to proclaim the gospel to every person.

 (John 17:21, Ephesians 4:3 and 13)

We value worship, as we seek to respond to God's desire for a people who

worship Him in spirit and in truth. (John 4:23-24)

We are committed to becoming like Jesus. We desire that our personal

 lives and our relationships generally will reflect His character

more and more. (1 Peter 1:13-16)
