We
believe,
in One God; Creator, Redeemer and Sustainer who provides order, purpose,
meaning and fullfillment to all creation. That in Jesus Christ, who was
born of Mary, God became human and is Sovereign Lord of life and
history. That in the Holy Spirit, God is present in the world,
empowering and guiding believers to understand and live out their faith
in Jesus Christ.
We
believe,
persons are created in the image of God and destined to live in
community with God, with other persons and with all creation. That by
disobedience, they have become sinful, but, by grace through faith, they
are redeemed in Jesus Christ. That being entrusted with God's creation,
they are called to participate in the establishment of a just and
compassionate social order.
We
believe,
that the Church is the one Body of Christ, the whole community of
persons reconciled to God through Jesus Christ and entrusted with God's
ministry.
We
believe,
that the Holy Bible is a faithful and inspired withness of God's self
revelation in Jesus Christ and in history, to illumine, guide correct
and edify believers in their fatih and witness.
We
believe,
that God is at work to make each person a new being in Christ and the
whole world God's Kingdom in which love, justice and peace prevail.
That the Kingdom of God is present where faith in Jesus Christ is
shared, where healing is given to the sick, where food is given to the
hungry, where light is given to the blind, and where liberty is given to
the captive and oppressed.
We
believe,
that the resurrection of Jesus Christ has overcome the power of death
and gives assurance of life after death, and we look forward to HIs
coming again in all fullness and glory to make all creation new and to
gather all the faithful under God's Kingdom.
Amen.
