Discover Our Core Insights
These are our pillars of Scriptural understanding,
Scripture
We start with Scripture; all Scripture. Doctrinal understanding cannot be arrived at through isolated verses divorced from context, both locally and Scripture wide.
Spirit Led Understanding
It is the Holy Spirit that leads us into truth yet how many men, claiming to be Spirit-led, arrive at different truths? We must listen to the Holy Spirit without filtering through the lens of self-interest.
