Confession of Faith

I AFFIRM

that my only comfort in life and death is that I, with body and soul, both in life and death, am not my own, but belong unto my faithful Saviour Jesus Christ; who with his precious blood has fully satisfied for all my sins, and delivered me from all the power of the devil; and so preserves me that without the will of my heavenly Father not a hair can fall from my head; yea, that all things must be subservient to my salvation, wherefore by His Holy Spirit He also assures me of eternal life, and makes me heartily willing and ready, henceforth, to live unto Him.

WE AFFIRM

- that the Bible is the inspired, the only infallible and the authoritative Word of God;

- that there is one God, eternally existent in three Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit;

- the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, his miracles, His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His personal return in power and glory;

- that for the salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential;

- that a person becomes justified by grace through faith alone in the Lord Jesus Christ alone;

- the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life;

- the resurrection of both the saved and the lost: they that are saved unto the resurrection of life, and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation;

            - the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ and His church.
