The following statements are our ‘official’ (yet brief) basis of faith:
We believe in
- The divinity of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ
- The fall of man and his recovery by the free and sovereign grace of God
- Man’s redemption by Jesus Christ alone and justification by faith in Him
- The sacred scriptures as the rule of conduct
- The inseparable connection of holiness of the life with the pardon of sin
- The personal return of our Lord Jesus Christ in glory
- The unity of the Godhead, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and the sovereignty of God in creation, providence and redemption
- The ordinance of Believer’s Baptism by immersion as instituted by our Lord Jesus Christ
- The ordinance of the Lord’s Supper as instituted by our Lord Jesus Christ
The first five statements are taken from the Title Deeds of 1834
