What we Believe

The faith of the Salvationist is often described as being in "the mainstream of Christian faith"

The 11 Doctrines of The Salvation Army form the basis of our belief and teaching.

Briefly they deal with:

• The Bible
• God
• The Trinity (God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit)
• Jesus Christ as divine and human
• Sin from the beginning of time
• The atoning work of Jesus
• Repentance for Salvation
• Justification by faith
• A continuing faith
• Holiness
• Eternal reward or punishment
