Man was created in the image of God, but fell from grace through disobedience. Therefore sin and death came into the world.

(Acts 1:8, Matthew 3:11, Acts 2:38-39, Acts 2:4 & Acts 19:1-7).
WATER BAPTISM

Water baptism is by immersion and a direct command from the Lord. It is only for Believers who identify with Christ, in His death burial and resurrection.
(Matthew 28:19, Romans 6:4, Colossians 2:12, Acts 8:36-39).

MARRIAGE
​
We believe that marriage is a sacred union ordained by God, between a man and a woman for the purpose of procreation, help, companionship and the propagation of the human race. Marriage represents the union between Christ and the church. Therefore it should be respected and honored.

We believe that the true church of God is composed of people (from different parts of the world, race, tribe or class) who are saved by faith through Jesus Christ, transformed by the word, regenerated by the Holy Spirit and united in one BODY“with Jesus as the Head.
(Ephesians. 4:11-16).
COMMUNION
