ABOUT US
The story of Jesus Christ. No other reality has so shaped the world.
This we proclaim to those who will hear.
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to teach and live out the full life proclaimed by Jesus Christ. We glorify our Father by faithful adherence to Christ's commands. We teach and live the eager anticipation of His Return and the establishment of His Kingdom in every corner of reality.
THE WORD
The Living Word was Jesus Christ Himself, whom Christians understand to be the true author of God's Revelation - The Holy Bible. The Word is our guide in every aspect of life as it reveals God's heart, mind and spirit along with His plan for the salvation for all mankind.
WHAT IS CHURCH?
The church - ekklesia in Greek - are those called out by God to be Christ's disciples, His very family.
The Church is made up of people who realise they are flawed, give themselves to God, and follow the example of His Son, Jesus Christ.

You will find that we have some differences to the various denominations in belief and practice, such as:

Saturday (Sabbath) meetings - just like Jesus kept

Worship Calendar based on the Biblical Festivals, kept by Christ & the early church
-
God had a plan from the beginning so all people can come to Him if they will turn to Him

There is death, "sleep" and then a resurrection of the dead

All the Bible is the inspired Word of God and should be a guide to faith and life
