Our supreme desire is to be conformed to His image by the power of the Holy Spirit Romans 8:29.
Our supreme desire is to be is to make GOD look GREAT and represent Him in an Excellent way Matthew 5:14-16 8:29 & 2Timothy 2:15.
We are not a denominational organisation, nor are we opposed to denominations as such, only to their over-emphasis of the doctrinal differences that have led to the division of the Body of Christ.
We believe the only true basis of Christian fellowship is God’s (Agape) love, which is greater than any differences we possess and without which we have no right to claim ourselves Christians (Christ followers).
We believe worship of God (Yahweh, Adonai, El-Shaddai) should be spiritual.
We believe in all the Sound doctrines of historic Christianity.
We believe that God is the personal, magnificent, and sovereign Creator of all things.
We believe that Jesus (Yeshua) the Christ (Messiah) is fully God and fully human, that He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, provided for the atonement of our sins by His substitution of death on the cross, was bodily raised from the dead, ascended back to the right hand of the Father, and ever lives to make intercession for us.
After Jesus ascended to Heaven, He poured out His Holy Spirit on the believers in Jerusalem, enabling them to fulfil His command to preach the Gospel to the entire world, an obligation shared by all believers today.
We believe that all people are, by nature, separated from God and responsible for their own sin, but that salvation, redemption, and forgiveness are freely offered to all by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. When a person repents of sin and accepts Jesus Christ as personal Saviour and Lord, trusting Him to save, that person is immediately born again and sealed by the Holy Spirit, all his/her sins are forgiven, and that person becomes a child of God, destined to spend eternity with the Lord.
We believe in the gifts of the Holy Spirit (Ruach HaKodesh) mentioned in the Scriptures, and that they are valid for today if they are exercised within the scriptural guidelines. We as believers are to covet the best gifts, seeking to exercise them in agape love that the whole Body of Christ might be edified. We believe that love is more important than the most spectacular gifts, and without this agape love all exercise of spiritual gifts is worthless.
We are living in a day of great spiritual confusion. When Paul wrote to the Ephesians he spoke of how God had placed pastors and teachers in the church for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, and for the building up of the body of Christ. The purpose was to bring them into spiritual maturity that they would not be carried away with every wind of doctrine and slight cunning of men who lie in wait to deceive. These are days when there are many winds of doctrine blowing through the church. The greatest defence against deception is a solid foundation in the Word.
This is what we seek to develop through our studies in the Scriptures. We are dedicated to bringing you the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help us God.
This is why we offer to you the studies in the Scriptures at near our costs, as we are seeking to make the Word of God simple to understand as well as making it available to all. We want you to build your spiritual house on the rock solid Word of God so that it will be able to withstand the fiercest storms.
