Our themes

  • Right to Peace
  • Right to Education
  • Right to Health and Water
  • Right to Livelihood
  • We believe the Bible to be the inspired, infallible, inerrant in its original writing, and authoritative Word of God for all matters of faith and life.
  • We believe that there is only one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Each having the same essence and attributes.
  • We believe in the deity and humanity of Jesus Christ, God manifested in the flesh, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, His present rule as Head of the Church and in His personal return in power and glory. In the personhood of the Holy Spirit as the third member of the Godhead, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
  • We believe that all men and women, regardless of age, are lost because of their sin. Salvation is offered by the grace and love of God, because of the atoning death of Christ and it is obtained through faith (apart from works), and regeneration by the Holy Spirit through the preaching of the Gospel.
  • We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost. They that are saved unto the resurrection of life, and they that are lost unto the resurrection of condemnation.
  • We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost. They that are saved unto the resurrection of life, and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
  • We believe in the spiritual unity of all true believers, the Church, with Jesus Christ as the Head, and its local representation under the authority of its leadership.
