our beliefs

Tō Mātou Whakapono

___________________ 

We believe

that the Bible is God’s Word. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs about living. Because it is inspired by God, it is truth without error.

 

We believe

in one eternal God who is the Creator of all things. He exists in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. He is totally loving and completely holy. 

 

We believe

that sin has separated each of us from God and His purpose for our lives. 

 

We believe

that the Lord Jesus Christ as both God and man is the only One who can reconcile us to God. He lived a sinless and exemplary life, died on the cross in our place, and rose again to prove His victory and empower us for life. 

 

We believe

that in order to receive forgiveness and the ‘new birth’ we must repent of our sins, believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and submit to His will for our lives. 

 

We believe

that in order to live the holy and fruitful lives that God intends for us, we need to be baptised in water and be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit enables us to use spiritual gifts. 

 

We believe

in the power and significance of the Church and the necessity of believers to meet regularly together for fellowship, prayer and the holy communion. 

 

We believe

that God has individually equipped us so that we can successfully achieve His purposes for our lives which are to worship Him, become like Him in our character, fulfil our role in the Church and serve the community in which we live.

We believe

marriage is defined in the bible as a covenant, a sacred bond between one man and one woman, instituted by and publicly entered into before God.

We believe

that our eternal destination of either Heaven or Hell is determined by our response to the Lord Jesus Christ. 

 

We believe

that the Lord Jesus Christ is coming back again as He promised.
