of heaven and earth.

born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, was crucified for our sins, rose from the
dead the third day, was received up to heaven and will
come again to judge the living and the dead.
- We believe in the new birth
experence of regeneration of the heart and the subsequent
cleansing from sin by the Holy Spirit.

day work of the Holy Spirit to fill believers with power
for ministry as well as Holy living.

the essentials needed to be saved. All other doctrines peculiar
to specific denominations or groups are debatable and we agree to
respect others beliefs while maintaining the right to disagree.
