Our first point of reference was that we believed as a community that our primary purpose is to bring glory to God. Therefore, we will be worshippers of God, acknowledging who He is and His power and His purposes. We acknowledge His sovereignty as the Lord of all and we acknowledge His life which is for all. We accept that He has revealed Himself to us in the Bible and that He requires of us that we act justly, love mercy and walk humbly with our God (Micah 6:8). This will be most likely to happen when we acknowledge that for us there is but one God, the Father from Whom all things have come to us and for Whom we exist; and for us there is one Lord, Jesus Christ, through Whom all things have come to us and through Whom we live (1 Cor 8:6).</br></br>
