We Believe... ... in the infallibility of the Word of God. Why Should We Read the Bible? The Bible tells us what we need to know to be saved. ( More on Salvation Here ) If you have been filled with the Holy Spirit (and thus become a member of the church) a good proportion of the New Testament is written to you. The Bible guides the non-believer to salvation and the Christian in how to walk their new life. It is truly a "lamp to our feet and a light for our path". The Bible is a prominent feature in a Revival Centre meeting. You are encouraged to bring a Bible to our meetings and follow the Scriptures as they are read and then expounded. More on a Revival Centre meeting The Bible is the guide for all Revival Centre teaching and doctrine.

Other Evidence that the Bible is Authentic A consistent unfolding message - despite the fact the Bible was written over a period of about 1500 years by over 40 different authors there is a consistency and deep unity that shows the hand of its ultimate Author.
Relevance - it contains up-to-the-minute insight into humanity and a relevance to our needs that has spoken to people over thousands of years. It can lead you today in how to enter into a direct relationship with your Creator.
Accuracy - the Bible speaks of the earth as round when everybody considered it to be flat. The Bible describes the water cycle in a section written 3000 years ago. The Bible refers to peoples whose existence has only been confirmed by recent archeology. Even the much-maligned account of creation in Genesis follows the order of the creation of plants, sea creatures, animals and human beings that is expected by science. Prophecy - the Bible predicts a great number of events. It has predicted the outcome of battles, the destruction of cities and the rise and fall of great world powers down through history. There are hundreds of prophecies foretelling events in the life of Jesus in great detail, made hundreds of years before they happened.
