While the Bible can't be summed up in a few bullet points, we'll try to give you a broad idea of the beliefs which we hold as the ones that God has revealed in the New Testament.

• God the Creator of all is revealed uniquely and perfectly through his Son, Jesus Christ.

• Only the grace of God manifested in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ makes a relationship between imperfect humans and a perfect God possible.

• To receive the forgiveness and salvation that Jesus accomplished for all people, a person needs to trust in Jesus, turn from a sinful life and be baptized into Christ. More on baptism in the booklet listed below.

• When God saves a person, He adds them to His kingdom, His church, His family.

• Our most important calling as believers in Jesus is to love God, and secondly, to love our neighbors.

• God loves everyone and desires that none of his children should perish or live in the bondage of sin, and has commissioned his church to take this message of love to the world.

• Christians receive the Holy Spirit for assurance and empowerment.

• The church is not a building or institution, but a living body of imperfect humans, striving servants seeking to love God and each other as God first loved us.

• Jesus is coming back to judge the world and take the children of God home to heaven.
  

We strongly emphacize that the truth that God wants us to believe and put into practice is contained within the Bible. We do not claim to be right about everything or to have a monopoly on the truth. We do claim to be honest searchers for the truth and we ask you to join us in that spirit of enquiry.

We do not claim to be the only Christians, but we do claim to be Christians only.
