What we believe

What we believe

As Protestant Christians we affirm that justification (being made right with God) is by faith alone in Jesus alone, and we broadly stand in the tradition of Reformed churches. However we hold that water baptism is for believing Christians only, and expect the ongoing gifts and power of the Holy Spirit in the everyday life of believers. 

We hold to the orthodox Creeds of the Apostles’, Nicene-Constantinopolitan, Chalcedonian and Athanasian Creeds.

Our Core Values

Mission Focused

Spirit Empowered.

Disciple Making.

Gospel Centred.

Gospel Centred.

We aim to keep the gospel message of Jesus at the centre of all our ministry, whether to believers or unbelievers. Belief in the gospel is the means by which we enter God's kingdom, marked outwardly by Water Baptism; but the good news of Jesus is also the means by which we make daily progress as his disciples, in his kingdom.

Spirit Empowered.

We believe that Jesus followers should be in eager and intelligent pursuit of the presence, power, fruit and gifts of God's Spirit, as mentioned in the Bible. We believe that all believers should follow the Biblical call to be filled with the Spirit, and continue to be filled, throughout their lives.

Mission Focused.

We are convinced that God intends churches to be outward-focused mission agencies (both locally and globally); and that he intends all believers to be fishers of men. We desire the Mosaic community to be on mission more broadly by way of society-serving initiatives and church planting.

Disciple Making.

Because Jesus himself made disciples and commissioned all believers to make disciples, our goal is for every believer to become a disciple-making disciple. We desire that Mosaic Church actively makes disciple-making disciples who know, love and obey Jesus.

Our Five Imperatives

Loving God.

We aim to keep the gospel message of Jesus at the centre of all our ministry, whether to believers or unbelievers. Belief in the gospel is the means by which we enter God's kingdom, marked outwardly by Water Baptism; but the good news of Jesus is also the means by which we make daily progress as his disciples, in his kingdom.

Loving our communities.

We believe that Jesus followers should be in eager and intelligent pursuit of the presence, power, fruit and gifts of God's Spirit, as mentioned in the Bible. We believe that all believers should follow the Biblical call to be filled with the Spirit, and continue to be filled, throughout their lives.

Loving the Vulnerable.

We are convinced that God intends churches to be outward-focused mission agencies (both locally and globally); and that he intends all believers to be fishers of men. We desire the Mosaic community to be on mission more broadly by way of society-serving initiatives and church planting.

Loving the Nations.

We welcome people from all backgrounds and desire to train and equip many people to see the nations of the world know the love of God and worship Jesus in response. Jesus will make all things new.

Loving Each Other.

Because Jesus himself made disciples and commissioned all believers to make disciples, our goal is for every believer to become a disciple-making disciple. We desire that Mosaic Church actively makes disciple-making disciples who know, love and obey Jesus.
