We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Mark 1:1
We believe the Gospel of His death, resurrection and the directive to Repent & be Baptised and receive the Holy Ghost. Acts 2:38
We believe we are baptised into the Body of Christ - the Church - through the Holy Ghost with the Biblical evidence of speaking in tongues. John 3:5
We believe in the miraculous gifts of the Holy Ghost in the Church. 1 Cor. 14:27-29
We believe in prayer for the sick and healing by the power of God. James 5:14-15
We believe the Bible describes modern nations and gives signs of the soon return of Jesus Christ. John 14:3
SALVATION IN THE BIBLE
In the Bible, salvation is only promised to God’s children. John 1:12-13, John 3:5
The book of Acts describes what a person must do to become God’s child:
“Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.”
Acts 2:38
Repentance
Repentance begins with the realisation that our current life isn’t acceptable to God and needs to be changed. It is more than just regret or crying - repentance is a decision to follow Jesus Christ.
Baptism
Jesus Christ got baptised in water by full immersion. He was baptised by John the Baptist, who was filled with the Holy Spirit. This is the only Biblical baptism - in water by full immersion, of your own will.
Through baptism, you publicly declare that you believe:
in Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who was crucified for our sins,
that He rose again to give you a new way of life
Baptism is your ‘signature’ on a new agreement with God.
Receiving the Holy Spirit
Being born of the Spirit means receiving the Holy Spirit (with the Biblical evidence of speaking in tongues). This is God’s symbolic signature on the agreement which He made with us.
Jesus Christ promised that the Holy Spirit would be sent:
“And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; [Even] the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.” John 14:16-17
What to expect
at a Sunday meeting

STORIES OF GOD’S POWER
During a testimony, we share how the power of God has changed our lives - including baptism, receiving the Holy Spirit, healings, and blessings in our daily lives.
COMMUNION
Every Sunday, we partake of the bread and the wine (fresh grape juice). These symbols remind us of Chirst’s body and blood, sacrificed for us.
