We believe in God
One God in three persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit;
the Lord Jesus Christ as God and Saviour;
the Bible as supreme authority for belief and behaviour;
salvation from sin by grace alone though faith alone.
We witness, to the British churches and people:
the value of traditional, godly, family life,
aiming at holiness and at pure relationships.
We witness, to the Tamil community:
the call of God to trust in Christ.
Christ is the One who has made forgiveness possible
because He has borne our punishment (karma) by dying on the cross.
Christ has been raised to life. Christ will return as king.
We look forward to sharing His risen life,
no longer fearing hell (or a cycle of death and rebirth).
We warn people not to be greedy but to be generous to those in need.
