The authority of Scripture. We believe the Bible is the full revelation of Jesus Christ & we seek to approve all things according to the Word of God.  We are committed to believing God to fulfill every promise contained in Scripture.

The Person & work of Jesus Christ.  We believe that Jesus Christ is the second person of the triune Godhead,the eternal Son of God.  He was born of the Virgin Mary, truly God & truly human.  He died on the cross for the sin of humankind; rose bodily from the dead, ascended into Heaven, is seated at the right hand of God, and will come again to judge the living & the dead.

The power of the Holy Spirit.  We believe the empowering of the Holy Spirit is essential enablement for ministry that would bear witness to Jesus.  We seek to develop in the operation of the gifts and graces of the Spirit given by God as supernatural equipment for the ongoing ministry of Jesus.

The Trinity.  We believe that God is one God,who has revealed Himself in three persons, the Father, the Son & the Holy Spirit, each of which are individual identities but of one substance.  They are co-equal and co-eternal.

The command of Jesus to make disciples.  We believe in the Great Commission given by Jesus to the Church, to preach the gospel to every person, seeking to draw them to become His disciples.  We will seek to multiply this ministry through initiating new faith communities.

The City/Regional Church.  We believe in the ministry of the Spirit through the local faith community as part of the wider church in the city or region, and we seek to express our faith and  exercise our ministry by the power of the Spirit as part of that Body.

The unity of the Spirit.  We believe that as a local Christian community, we seek the unity of the Spirit with every believer & with all Christian congregations that confess faith in Jesus Christ as Saviour & Lord. 

The centrality of worship.  We believe in worship, & we seek to respond to God's desire for a people who will worship Him in Spirit & in Truth.

The pursuit of holiness.  We are committed to becoming like Jesus.  We desire that our personal lives & our relationships generally will reflect more & more of His Character.

Care for the poor.  We want to fulfill the command of Christ for those special people in God's sight, which the Bible refers to as "the poor."
