Values Statement 


We value:

And affirm the Evangelical Alliance's Basis of Faith Statement

 

Our relationship with Jesus Christ as Supreme governor, commander of all, and intimate friend. He is the source of life and truth, and the giver of authentic wisdom for life

Knowing Jesus as The Word of God - hearing from Him – through the written Word, prompting of the Holy Spirit, Divinely ordered circumstances, and supernatural events.

God’s order for society based on the family - the human family, and the family of the Church, His Household. The family is the basis for moral life, and sets the example for collective community. We therefore also value the gathering of people, as well as a balanced life of family, work and rest.

 

God's order for economic growth - businesses creating wealth for the nation, in doing so providing needed goods and services for the community and gainful employment for all, at fair market prices and wages.

Variety – of tastes and style as expressions of the breadth of the Kingdom; Variety of opinions as helpful to seeking the truth. Argument and discussion is healthy in the pursuit of truth.

Connecting people. Unity of purpose is powerful, effective and attracts God’s favour.

Purity of behaviour, intentions and relationships. Christian ethics are far deeper than ‘keeping the rules’ – but we are led by the Spirit of God.
