We believe in one God Who is Trinity (Three in One); Creator, Saviour (Jesus), & Restorer (Holy Spirit).
We believe that the Old and New Testament Scriptures, given by plenary inspiration, contain all truth necessary for right relationships with God, ourselves, each other, all people and creation.
We believe that humanity is broken by shame through both our natural and relational development in this world. Thus we cannot choose God on our own. However, God’s grace given to all humanity empowers us to choose God at any and every moment of our lives.
We believe that Jesus Christ died for the whole human race; that anyone who believes Jesus is the full revelation of God and gives their life to follow Jesus’ Way of living and loving in this world is choosing to receive the salvation God is offering and will spend a hope-filled lifetime of continually being transformed into the likeness of Christ Jesus through the power of the Holy Spirit Who works in and through our experience and expression of God’s love in this world.
We believe that Jesus-followers are on a journey toward entire sanctification, which is a full surrender to the love of God in their lives such that they are giving their whole hearts, minds, souls, and strengths to following Jesus to the best of their present abilities and understandings.
We believe that the Holy Spirit dwells in and around us guiding and wooing us toward the paths of God’s loving grace and peace.
We believe we participate with God in making all things new through are surrendered lives of living and loving like Jesus; that someday God will complete the making of all things new and Jesus the Christ will return to usher in the fulfilment of the Kingdom of God on earth. In this time, all Jesus-followers and those who faithfully followed God before will come into the fullness of God’s presence and Kingdom.
