Our Beliefs

The Holy Bible is the Word of God
The Trinity - the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are co-equal
In One God consisting of the 3 persons of the Trinity
Jesus Christ is both fully Man and fully God
Salvation through faith in Jesus Christ

The Holy Spirit, Comforter and Guide - The Bible, Old and New Testaments, is the inspired word of God. It contains the only way of Salvation. Every true Christian is bound to acknowledge and receive it, with the influence of the Holy Spirit of God, as the only rule and guide.

The Salvation Message - The fall of Adam and the redemption through Jesus Christ shall be preached throughout the world. Faith in Jesus Christ, true repentance, forgiveness of sins, and following after Christ, are the models of a true Christian.
