We believe in one God, the creator, and sustainer of the universe who is all-powerful, all-knowing and ever-present. He reveals Himself to us through His word as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

We believe the Holy Bible is perfect, without error and is the living Word of God, which gives life and reveals the character, will and mind of God.

We believe that through the sin of Adam, all mankind is under a curse of sin and death, and is only saved through the atonement of Jesus Christ.

We believe that through Jesus Christ we have wisdom, righteousness, healing and all the necessities for both of our spiritual and physical life.

We believe in the sacraments of Water Baptism and Holy Communion.

We believe in the indwelling power of the Holy Ghost, empowering believers to speak in tongues and imparting diverse gifts to members of the body of Christ.

We believe that the Church is the body of Christ, and therefore, to sustain and optimize the body, every Christian must not forsake the regular assembling of themselves together in the house of God.

We believe in the resurrection of the righteous and the wicked to stand before God Almighty in the final judgement, to be rewarded or punished according to their deeds.
