An Evangelical is someone who firmly believes in at least the following essential core teachings of the Bible.

1. We believe there is only one God. God is One and exists eternally in three Persons; Father, Son and Holy Spirit. These three Persons are distinct from each other but are never separate from each other.
2. We believe God has spoken. The Bible, comprising the Old and New Testaments, alone contains God’s reliable teaching and provides us with all we need for salvation and serving God. Jesus and the writings of the 12 Apostles He specifically commissioned to write the New Testament, are God’s full and final revelation to us.
3. We believe Jesus died and came alive again. God loved us so much that He sent Jesus Christ His only Son to die bearing the punishment we deserve. On the third day Jesus rose bodily and physically from the dead proving that God has fully accepted His sacrifice. Outside of Jesus there is no forgiveness for displeasing God.
4. We believe Jesus Christ will physically return. Jesus will return to judge every human being that is alive or has ever lived. Only those who have lived under His Lordship will be rescued from the Judgement that is coming.
5. We believe in the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit gives us new life and enables us to believe the Gospel and grow to be more like Jesus. The Holy Spirit speaks to us through the Bible. Without Him we cannot do anything to please God.
6. We believe that the Father calls us to worship Him in Spirit and Truth. We worship God with our lives in simple sincerity, not in ritual nor in emotionalism, but with our minds, bodies and emotions.
7. We believe that we must spread the good news of Jesus. Since there is only one God who loves people and only one Saviour who gave Himself for people we must introduce people from every race, culture and nation to Jesus.
