Core Values at CPBC
1.Biblical Teaching
We draw our belief from God’s Word.
I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom:
² preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching.
³ For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions,
⁴ and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. 2 Timothy 4:1-4
2.Fervent Worship
We glorify God and enjoy Him together on the Lord’s Day by reading the Word, preaching the Word, praying the Word, singing the Word, in the ordinances seeing the Word and giving towards the promotion of the Word.
On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break
bread, Paul talked with them, intending to depart on the next day, and he
prolonged his speech until midnight. Acts 20:7
²³ For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, 24 and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, “This is my body, which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” 25 In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.” 1 Corinthians 11:23-25
¹⁶ Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing
one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. Colossians 3:16
² On the first day of every week, each of you is to put something aside and store it up, as he may prosper, so that there will be no collecting
when I come. 1 Corinthians 16:2
3.Loving Fellowship
We love our neighbour even as we love ourselves.
²⁴ And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, ²⁵ not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near. Hebrews 10:24-25
4.Passionate Evangelism
¹⁶ Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. ¹⁷ And when they saw him they worshiped him, but some doubted. ¹⁸ And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. ¹⁹ Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, ²⁰ teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:16-20
