We believe that the Lord our God is one: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

We believe that the Father has shown us his holy love in giving Jesus Christ, his only Son for us, and has shown his grace by putting sinners right with himself when they place their trust in his Son.

We believe in the atoning death, resurrection from the dead, ascension and final return of Jesus Christ.

We believe in the Holy Spirit who makes the death of Christ effective to sinners who through the new birth makes us partake in the life of the risen Christ; who enables those who believe to live a life pleasing to God, empowering them for service in the world.

We believe that the Bible is God-breathed and hence fully trustworthy in all it affirms; and is our highest authority for faith and life.

We recognise the Church as the body of Christ, commissioned by Christ, to proclaim the Good News to all people, making them disciples, and teaching them to obey him.
