Statement of Beliefs and Aims
                                   
                                                We as Christians, accept the truth revealed to us in the Old and New Testament 
                                             scripture of Gods word. We accept the faith set before us in the Gospels, and we 
                                             regard the doctrines put there as the understanding of the Christian faith. As a 
                                             result we will experience mutual Christian love, practical Christian service, and 
                                             evangelical concern. We accept the sovereignty and grace of God the Father, God
                                             the Son and the Holy Spirit in creation, providence, revelation, redemption and
                                             final judgements. We believe the Old and New Testament Scriptures to be of divine
                                            inspiration and consequently in its entire trustworthiness and supreme authority in
                                            all matters of faith and conduct. We accept the universal sinfulness and guilt of
                                            fallen man,  which makes him subject to God's wrath and condemnation, and
                                            believe in the substitutionary sacrifice of the incarnate Son of God as the only and
                                            complete ground of redemption from the guilt and the power of sin, and from all
                                            its eternal consequences. We believe that, as sinners, we are justified solely by the
                                            grace of God though faith in Christ crucified and risen from the dead. We believe
                                            in the illuminating, regenerating, indwelling and sanctifying work of God though 
                                            the Holy Spirit. We accept the priesthood of all believers, and that they form the
                                            universal Church, with Christ as the Head of this body of believers, who He has
                                            commanded to be committed to the proclamation of the Gospel throughout the
                                            world. Therefore we live in the expectation of the personal visible return of the
                                            Lord Jesus Christ, in power and glory. As a result of these beliefs, our aim is to
                                            share God's love and concern by action, word, and deed, particularly among those
                                            who are visually impaired. So that they are able to overcome this as a barrier to
                                            finding a personal faith in Christ and to living a fulfilled Christian life.
