Our Doctrine

We are a Christian church that believes the Bible is the Word of God. Ultimately the Bible dictates our teachings and mission. Our doctrine aligns with the International Church of the Nazarene. You can find the Nazarene Articles of Faith HERE.

The Purpose of God

We affirm our belief in the one-eternal God, Creator, and Lord of the world, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, who governs all things according to the purpose of His will. He has been calling out from the world a people for Himself, and sending His people back into the world to be His servants and His witnesses, for the extension of His kingdom, the building up of Christ’s body, and the glory of His name. We confess with shame that we have often denied our calling and failed in our mission, by becoming conformed to the world or by withdrawing from it. We rejoice that even when borne by flawed believers who still struggle, the gospel is still the most precious treasure. Isa. 40:28; Matt. 28:19; Eph. 1:11

The Authority and Power of the Bible

We affirm the divine inspiration, truthfulness, and authority of both Old and New Testament Scriptures in their entirety as the only written word of God, without error in all that it affirms, and the only infallible rule of faith and practice. We also affirm the power of God’s word to accomplish His purpose of salvation. The message of the Bible is addressed to all men and women. For God’s revelation in Christ and in Scripture is unchangeable. Through it the Holy Spirit still speaks today. II Tim. 3:16; II Pet. 1:21; John 10:35

The Uniqueness of Christ

We affirm that there is only one Saviour and only one gospel, although there is a wide diversity of evangelistic approaches. We recognize that everyone has some knowledge of God through His general revelation in nature. We reject as derogatory to Christ and the gospel every kind of dialogue which implies that Christ speaks equally through all religions and ideologies. Jesus Christ, being Himself the only God-man, who gave Himself as the only ransom for sinners, is the only mediator between God and people. There is no other name given among men by which we must be saved. All men and women are perishing because of sin, but God loves everyone, not wishing that any should perish but that all should repent. Yet those who reject Christ reject the joy of salvation and condemn themselves to eternal separation from God. To proclaim Jesus as “the Saviour of the world” is to proclaim God’s love for a world of sinners and to invite everyone to respond to Him as Saviour and Lord repenting toward God and placing faith in Christ and His work on the cross. Jesus Christ has been exalted above every other name; we long for the day when every knee shall bow to Him and every tongue shall confess Him Lord. Gal. 1:6-9; Rom. 1:18-32; I Tim. 2:5,6; Acts 4:12
