Statement of Faith

1. Scripture: The Supreme Authority

I affirm the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments as the inspired, infallible, inerrant, and sufficient Word of God (2 Tim 3:16–17; 2 Pet 1:19–21). Scripture alone carries final authority for doctrine, life, worship, and ministry.
I stand under Scripture—not under denominational trends, cultural pressures, or the traditions of men (Mark 7:7–9). The Word judges every thought, desire, and practice; it is not judged by them (Heb 4:12).

2. The Triune God: The Absolute Reality

There is one God—eternal, omnipotent, self-existent, sovereign over all things (Deut 6:4; Ps 90:2). He exists eternally as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Matt 28:19).
God is not a passive observer but the blazing, holy, uncreated Reality by whom and for whom all things exist (Rom 11:36).
He is infinitely worthy of fear, awe, delight, and obedience (Ps 96:4–9; Heb 12:28–29).

3. God the Father

The Father is the Creator and Sustainer of all things (Gen 1:1; Col 1:16–17).
He purposes all things according to the counsel of His will (Eph 1:11).
He is just in His judgments and overflowing in faithfulness and mercy toward His redeemed (Exod 34:6–7).

4. Jesus Christ: Lord, Lamb, and Returning King

Jesus Christ is true God and true Man (John 1:1,14; Col 2:9).
He was miraculously conceived by the Spirit and born of the virgin Mary (Luke 1:35).
He lived a sinless life (1 Pet 2:22), offered Himself as the substitutionary, penal, wrath-bearing sacrifice for sinners (Isa 53:4–6; Rom 3:24–26), and rose bodily from the dead (1 Cor 15:3–4).
He ascended, reigns at the Father’s right hand, and intercedes for His people (Heb 1:3; 7:25).
He will return personally, visibly, and triumphantly to judge the living and the dead and to establish His everlasting kingdom (Matt 24:30; Rev 19:11–16).

5. The Holy Spirit

The Spirit is the Lord and Giver of life (2 Cor 3:17–18).
He convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment (John 16:8).
He regenerates, indwells, sanctifies, equips, and seals every believer (Titus 3:5; Rom 8:9–14; Eph 1:13–14).
He is not an impersonal force but the divine Person who glorifies Christ and empowers obedience.
The gifts of the Spirit are active today, not as spectacles for men, or the excesses of some groups, but as Christ-exalting empowerments that confirm His Word, build His Church, and advance His kingdom.

6. Humanity, Sin, and the Need for Redemption

Human beings are created in the image of God (Gen 1:26–27), with dignity, purpose, and moral responsibility.
Through Adam’s fall, all humanity is corrupted in nature, spiritually dead, and enslaved to sin (Rom 5:12; Eph 2:1–3).
Sin is not merely moral failure but rebellion against the holy God, a refusal to honour Him as God (Rom 1:21–25).

7. Salvation: Grace Alone, Christ Alone, Faith Alone

Salvation is wholly of God’s grace—not human merit—through faith in the crucified and risen Christ alone (Eph 2:8–9).
Christ’s atonement is substitutionary, effectual, and accomplished—He did not make salvation “possible,” but purchased a people for Himself (John 10:11; Rev 5:9).
True faith produces repentance, obedience, perseverance, and a transformed life (Luke 6:46; 1 John 2:3–6).
Any gospel that removes the demands of discipleship or the fear of the Lord is not the biblical gospel.

8. The Church: The Blood-Bought People of God

The Church is not an institution driven by trends, branding, or entertainment.
It is the redeemed assembly of Christ, called to holiness, worship, discipleship, and mission (1 Pet 2:9–12; Matt 28:18–20).
Local churches are to order their life and ministry according to Scripture—not the spirit of the age—through sound doctrine, expository preaching, prayer, church discipline, and mutual love (1 Tim 3:15; Acts 2:42).

9. Baptism and the Lord’s Supper

Baptism is the outward sign of union with Christ and entrance into the visible church (Rom 6:3–4).
The Lord’s Supper proclaims Christ’s death until He comes (1 Cor 11:23–26).
These ordinances do not save but strengthen the faith of those who belong to Christ.

10. Christian Living: Holiness in Reverent Fear

The Christian life is one of growing conformity to Christ through the Spirit’s power and our active obedience (Phil 2:12–13).
Believers are called to holiness, integrity, sacrificial love, and the fear of God—not the fear of man (1 Pet 1:14–19; Prov 1:7).
Scripture defines righteousness; culture does not.
The goal is not modern “spirituality” but Christlike, kingdom-shaped allegiance.

11. Marriage, Creation Order, and Human Sexuality

God created humanity male and female (Gen 1:27).
Marriage is the covenantal union of one man and one woman (Gen 2:24; Matt 19:4–6).
Sexual activity is ordained by God for marriage alone; all forms of sexual immorality are sin (1 Cor 6:9–20; Heb 13:4).
Human identity is given by God, not self-constructed.

12. Angels, Demons, and Spiritual Warfare

Angels are ministering spirits sent to serve the heirs of salvation (Heb 1:14).
Satan and demons are real and actively oppose God’s people (1 Pet 5:8; Eph 6:10–18).
Yet Christ has decisively triumphed over them (Col 2:14–15), and victory belongs to those who stand firm in the Word, prayer, and holiness.

13. The Last Things: The Consummation of All Things

Jesus Christ will return in glory to judge the nations and renew creation (Acts 1:11; Rev 21:1–4).
The dead will be raised: the redeemed to everlasting joy, the wicked to eternal punishment (Dan 12:2; Matt 25:31–46).
God will dwell with His people forever, and the kingdom will be fully revealed.
This hope fuels present-tense courage, holiness, and faithfulness.
