What we believe!

Open Bible
Here at RPC we consider the Bible to be at the core of our faith. It is by the truths contained within that we have confidence to believe in God and trust in his means of salvation. It is our way of understanding who God is and what his plan for our lives are and the ultimate destiny of the human race.

Below you will read a summary of what we consider to be the key beliefs of the Christian faith that are expressed in the Bible. 

Statement of Belief
 
We believe in...
 
1. The one true God who lives eternally in three persons-the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
 
2. The love, grace and sovereignty of God in creating, sustaining, ruling, redeeming and judging the world.
 
3. The divine inspiration and supreme authority of the Old and New Testament Scriptures, which are the written Word of God-fully trustworthy for faith and conduct.
 
4. The dignity of all people, made male and female in God's image to love, be holy and care for creation, yet corrupted by sin, which incurs divine wrath and judgement.
 
5. The incarnation of God's eternal Son, the Lord Jesus Christ-born of the virgin Mary; truly divine and truly human, yet without sin.
 
6. The atoning sacrifice of Christ on the cross: dying in our place, paying the price of sin and defeating evil, so reconciling us with God.
 
7. The bodily resurrection of Christ, the first fruits of our resurrection; his ascension to the Father, and his reign and mediation as the only Saviour of the world.
 
8. The justification of sinners solely by the grace of God through faith in Christ.
 
9. The ministry of God the Holy Spirit, who leads us to repentance, unites us with Christ through new birth, empowers our discipleship and enables our witness.
 
10. The Church, the body of Christ both local and universal, the priesthood of all believers-given life by the Spirit and endowed with the Spirit's gifts to worship God and proclaim the gospel, promoting justice and love.
 
11. The personal and visible return of Jesus Christ to fulfil the purposes of God, who will raise all people to judgement, bring eternal life to the redeemed and eternal condemnation to the lost, and establish a new heaven and new earth.

We have adopted the above Statement of Faith as set out by the 'Evangelical Alliance'.
