Deeper Life believes that the God of the Bible is at work to bring healing and transformation to a broken world. Jesus has set us free to enjoy a life with Him that grows ever deeper, and we have been called to invite others on this same journey. Every ministry expression of Deeper Life has at its heart a desire to see people experience transformation through an encounter with Jesus by the Holy Spirit.

"If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land" (2nd Chronicles 7:14).

Both prayer and worship at Deeper Life are simply avenues of transformation through encounter.

When we pray to and worship Him, we are accomplishing a means unto itself—God is simply worthy of humanity’s adoration. Because it’s our sincere desire to honour Him, we commit ourselves to the pursuit of prayer and worship (Rev. 5:12; 1st Chronicles 16:25; Psalm 96:4; Rev. 4:11).

Deeper Life also believes that through prayer and worship God is moved to action. There is a distinct expectation that when prayer and worship is offered up to the Living God, He moves against the forces of darkness that blind or hinder people from coming closer to Jesus. Worship and prayer to God causes the spiritual atmosphere to change allowing people to see and hear God more clearly—and ultimately receive Him and His blessings (2nd Chronicles 20:15-22; 2 Chronicles 7:14; Isaiah 42:10-13).

• The Bible is inspired of God, inerrant in the original documents and of final authority in all matters of faith and practice. (2nd Tim. 3:16-17, 2nd Peter 1:20-21)

• There is one God, eternally existent in three Persons: Father, Son & Holy Spirit. (2nd Cor. 13:14, Heb.9:14)

• We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His substitutionary and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father where He serves as our mediator, and in His personal return in power and glory. (John 1:1,29; Matt. 1:23-25; Phil.2:6; 1st John 3:5; 1st Thess 4:13-18)

• Each member of the human race is fallen, sinful, and lost and regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for the salvation of people. Redemption is wholly by the blood of Christ, and salvation is by grace, through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. (Gen 3, Rom 3:23, Eph 2:8-9, Acts 4:12)

• All who by faith receive the Lord Jesus Christ as saviour are born again of the Holy Spirit, indwelt by the Holy Spirit and by the Holy Spirit baptized into the body of Christ, the Church, of which He is the risen and ascended head. (1st Cor 12:12-14, Eph 1:22-23, Col 1:18)

• The Church began with the descent of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost and is composed of all true believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. These believers are united to Him and to one another by the indwelling Spirit. The main functions of the church are to glorify God and to witness for Christ until His return. (Acts 2:1-12,42; Acts 11:15-18; Heb 3:1)

• The ascended Christ is the giver of gifts, such as evangelists, pastors, and teachers, and these individuals are responsible to Him for their service. These gifts are given “for the perfecting of the saints unto the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.” (Eph 4:11-16)

• There will be a resurrection of the saved and of the lost; of the saved unto eternal life, and of the lost unto eternal damnation and conscious judgement. (Ist Thess 4:17, Rev 20:11-15)
