Who we are
At Growth Bible Church, we walk in the fullness of both Word and Spirit. We believe God has a unique plan for your life, and we want to encourage you to know Him deeply, live out your faith, and share Jesus with others.
Call to Prayer
We give all glory and honor to God. Together, we will:
Pray against the schemes of the enemy and declare Christ’s victory (Eph. 1:20–23).
Stand firm in the truth that Jesus is the name above every name, and no weapon formed against this church will prevail (Isa. 54:17).
Speak life into the vision God has given us: to raise up believers who carry Jesus into their families, workplaces, and communities.
Pray for unity among every member — present and future.
Ask for growth in depth before numbers, and for God’s wisdom and strength for church leadership, now and in the future.
Statement of Faith
The sixty-six canonical books of the Bible, in their original writing as fully inspired of God, and accept them as the supreme and final authority for faith and life (2 Tim 3:15-16; 2 Pet 1:20-21; Heb 1:1-2; John 8:31-32; 1 Thess 2:13; Ps 119:9-11, 89, 105; 2 Pet 3:15-17).
Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Gen 1:1, 26; Mar 28:19; 2 Cor 13:14; John 14:16).
And is the true God and true man. He lived a sinless life. (Isa 7:14; Marr 1:18, 23; 1 Pet 2:22; 2 Cor 5:21; Heb 4:15; Phil 2:6-11; John 1:14. 16:28; 17:4-5; Heb 2:17-17).
But by man’s transgression, he became separated from God. All who reach the age of accountability are responsible for their sinful deeds (Gen 1:26; Gen 3:1-24; Rom 3:10, 12, 23; John 3:3).
A substitutionary sacrifice, according to the Scriptures, and that all who believe in Him are justified on the grounds of His shed blood (John 3:16-19; Rom 4:25; 5:8; 1 Cor 15:3-4; 1 Tim 2:5-6; Eph 2:8-9; Titus 3:5; 1 Pet 1:18-19).
His ascension into Heaven, and His present life as our High Priest and Advocate (Matt 28; Mark 16:9-11; Luk 9:22; 24:36-40; John 20; 21; 24:36-53; Acts 1:6-12; 1 Tim 2:5; 3:16; 1 Cor 15:3-8; Heb 5:1-10; 10:10-12; 1 John 2:1; Heb 8:6; Rom 8:34).
(Acts 1:11; Rev 1:7; Matt 24:30; Mark 13:26; John 14:3; 1 Thess 1:10; 4:16-17; 2 Thess 1:7; John 14:18; 2 Pet 3:3-10).
And thereby become children of God (John 1:12; 3:16; Rom 3:20-24; 5:8-10; 2 Cor 5:19-21; Gal 3:26; 1 John 1:9; 5:12-13; Acts 2:38; 16:3-31).
With the accompanying gifts of the Holy Spirit, and in fellowship with the Holy Spirit. We believe in the divinely ordained ministries of Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor and Teacher (Acts 1:8; 2 Cor 1:21-22; 13:14; Rom 5:5; 8:9-11; 1 Cor 12:7-13; Gal 4:6; John 15:26; 17:7; Phil 2:1; Eph 4:11-13).
The eternal blessedness of the redeemed and the eternal banishment of those who have rejected the offer of salvation (John 5:28-29; Rom 8:11; 1 Cor 6:14; 15:51-54; Phil 3:20-21; 2 Cor 4:14; Matt 25:40-46; Mark 9:44. 46. 48-49; 2 Thess 1:9; Rev 20:12-17).
Or ministry as the appointed leader by God functioning together with a plurality of leadership. The visionary leader is the primus inter parus (“first among equals”). Plurality of leadership, consisting of the visionary leader together with appointed elders, provides for the necessary checks and balances for healthy leadership (Eph 4:11; 1 Thess 5:12-13; Acts 11:30; 14:23; 15:28; Titus 1:5; James 5:14; 1 Pet 5:1-5; 1 Cor 16:15-16; Prov 15:22; Heb 13:17).
Where necessary, church leadership must carry out biblical discipline for the protection of the local church (Heb 13:17; Gal 6:1; Heb 12:10-11; James 5:20; 2 Tim 2:24-25; Matt 18:15-17; Titus 3:10-11; 1 Cor 5).
And regenerated by the Holy Spirit; that the local church on earth should take its character from this conception of the Church and therefore, that new birth and personal confession of Christ are essentials of church membership (1 Cor 3:16; 1 Pet 2:4-9; Eph 1:23; 1 Cor 12:12-13; 1 Tim 3:15; Eph 2:20-21; John 3:3; Rom 10:9-11; Acts 2:42).
Between a natural man and a natural woman within the confines of biblical matrimony (Gen 1:26-27; 2:21-25; Matt 19:4-6; Lev 18:22; Rom 1:24-27; 1 Cor 6:9-11; 1 Cor 7:2; Heb 13:4).
Baptism in water and the Lord’s Supper – to be observed as acts of obedience and as perpetual witnesses to the cardinal facts of the Christian faith; that Baptism is the immersion of the believer in water as a confession of identification with Christ in His burial and resurrection and that the Lord’s Supper is the partaking of the emblems symbolic of the Saviour’s broken body and shed blood, in remembrance of His sacrificial death, till He comes (Matt 28:19-20; Rom 6:3-4; Acts 2:38, 41-42, 8:12, 26-39; 22:16; Matt 26:26-28; 1 Cor 11:23-26).
Was provided for in the Old Testament and is an integral part of the Gospel (Isa 53:4-5; Matt 8:16-17; Mark 16:18; Acts 10:38; 28:8; 1 Cor 12:4; James 5:14-15; 1 Pet 2:24; Ps 103:3; Heb 13:8).
We believe in the doctrine of sanctification as a definite, yet progressive work of grace, commencing at the time of the new birth and continuing until the consummation of salvation (Heb 12:14; 1 Thess 5:23; 2 Thess 2:13; 2 Pet 3:18; 2 Cor 4:18; Phil 3:12-14; 1 Cor 1:30; Eph 5:26; John 17:17).
We believe the Holy Spirit’s revelation will not contradict established Biblical truth and values and will be in line with the character of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit (2 Tim 3:16-17; Heb 13:8; 1 Cor 2:9; 4:6; John 14:6, 26; 16:12-14; Mal 3:6).
