Oasis Community Church - What do we believe about...?
The Bible
We believe the Bible is God’s word. It is accurate, authoritative, unerring and applicable to our everyday lives.
God
We believe in One Eternal God who is the Creator of all things.
He exists in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
He is totally loving and absolutely Holy.
Jesus
We believe sin has severed the connection between each of us and God, and separated us from His purpose for our lives.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ, as both fully God and fully man, is the only one who can reconcile us to God.
He lived a sinless and exemplary life, died on the cross in our place and rose again to prove His victory and empower us for life.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is coming back to this world again as He promised.
The Holy Spirit
We believe that in order to live the holy and fruitful lives that God intends for us, we need to be baptised in water and be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit enables us to use spiritual gifts including speaking in other tongues.
Salvation
We believe that in order to receive forgiveness and re-establish a connection with God, we must repent of our sins, believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and submit to His will for our lives.
We believe that our eternal destination of Heaven or hell is determined by our response to the Lord Jesus Christ.
The Church
We believe in the significance of the fellowship of believers as church together and that we should meet regularly for fellowship, prayer, teaching and the breaking of Bread.
We believe that God has individually equipped us so that we can successfully achieve His purpose for our lives which is to worship God, to serve Him by fulfilling our role in the Church and to serve the community in which we live.
In order to fulfil that role, we believe God wants to heal and transform us so that we can live in the fulness of life in order to help others more effectively.
