Beliefs

The Holy Scripture

We believe that the Holy Scripture was derived from divine inspiration; we are convinced about its authority and sufficiency for our lives.

The Trinity

We believe in the existence of one eternal God in the unity of the Godhead, with the distinction of persons in that unity, which are the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit; to whom equal honor is due.

The Fall of Man

Sin entered into the world through the fall of Adam, after which man was lost; he was without strength to do the will of God or to save himself.

The Birth of Christ

The Son of God truly became man and was born of the Virgin Mary ; as man He was perfect and sinless.

Death and Resurrection

His death was a propitiation for the forgiveness of sins; He was raised from the dead and was exalted as Lord.

The Second Coming

He will come again to receive His people to himself and will appear in power and glory to establish His Kingdom.
