Doctrine
01
One God, eternally existing in three persons, equal in essence, distinct in person, being Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
02
That Jesus Christ is God the Son, both human and divine.
03
That the Holy Spirit is God as much as the Father and Son are.
04
The all-sufficiency of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross of Calvary to pay once for the sins of the whole world to purchase our pardon and salvation.
05
The necessity of all mankind to personally, individually, to receive this gift of eternal salvation through repentance and faith.
06
The inerrancy, infallibility, reliability and all-sufficiency of the 66 books of the Bible, being verbally and plenary inspired. The Bible is the Word of God. We only use the King James version of the Bible as it is the best translation we have in the English language. The original texts are the inspired Word of God, and any faithful translation is the preserved word of God.
07
The reality and person of Satan, the adversary of God’s people, his demonic followers and his ultimate demise.
08
The normal, historical reading of all of the book of Genesis, including the creation of the universe in six, normal 24hour days, Adam and Eve as our first parents, the fall of mankind, and the global flood of Noah.
09
The church as both the universal, invisible body and bride of Christ comprising of all born-again believers from Christ until the rapture, and the local church as a local institution as a bastion for truth.
10
Only two ordinances established by Jesus Christ for the New Testament church: baptism (as a public confession by a believer of faith in Jesus Christ and as a picture of salvation) and the Lord’s table (as a table of remembrance, the elements being emblematic only).
11
The premillennial, pretribulational rapture of the church, the literal Antichrist, the 7 year tribulation period, the literal return of Christ and his thousand year reign, the destruction of the old heavens and earth and the creation of a new heaven and a new earth.
12
The gifts of Holy Spirit for use in the church. The ‘miraculous’ and ‘sign’ gifts (such as tongues, miracles, healing, apostles) were for the early stage of the church and are no longer being functioning today. Although, praise God, He still does miracles in our lives and shows Himself strong!
13
The true gospel, being neither Calvinistic/reformed or Arminian in doctrine. Christ died for the sins of the whole world; mankind cannot save themselves but they can, by the grace of God, receive Christ as an act of the will; the redeemed are elected to blessings in Christ; people have the God-given freewill to accept or reject Jesus Christ; God foreknows who will be saved, but doesn’t arbitrarily pre-determine who will be saved; God will persevere with his people, but it is possible to die whilst out of fellowship with Him; good works cannot grant salvation, but if there are no good works or righteous living then the claim to salvation is under serious question.
14
Music that is spiritual, melodious and holy for both church and personal use. We only use traditional hymns and modern songs that are holy, because these styles conform with God’s character. We reject Contemporary Christian Music, as we reject pop music, rock music, jazz music etc.
15
The nuclear, biological family as the pillar of society, with husband as head, wife as helpmeet, and children raised in ways of the LORD. Whilst we live in a broken world, we still strive for loving obedience to God’s model.
16
Only two genders, as God made us, male and female.
17
The need for separation on moral and doctrinal grounds. Whilst we wish all Christians and all churches could unite in fellowship and service, the compromise in doctrine and personal holiness in many churches means that this is not wise. This stance is not from a position of self-righteousness, but from a desire to please and obey Christ and be holy, as He is holy.
Our doctrinal position is based on the traditional, fundamental, Biblical faith of God’s people.

“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and
profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction,
for instruction in righteousness:”
2 Timothy 3:16
