The Anne Street Christian Assembly is the name by which the group of Christians who meet at Anne Street Gospel Chapel is known. We are often referred to as 'Christian Brethren' or 'Open Brethren' (not to be confused with 'Exclusive Brethren').
There is no central organization. Each local church fellowship or assembly is administered independently. There is no federation or union officially linking them, yet they have a 'family likeness' which characterises them and they know a strong spiritual bond. Their Head is Jesus Christ our risen Lord. We regard the Bible as our sole authority for doctrine and practice.
This Assembly is one of many similar groups of Christians who meet in community churches, gospel chapels or halls throughout Australia and other countries in the world. Each of these assemblies has similar beliefs and is self governing or autonomous.
Basic doctrines which we believe:
- The Bible as the inspired Word of God, and our sole authority for doctrine and practice.
- The Trinity of the Godhead.
- The Deity and true sinless humanity of our Lord Jesus Christ.
- The personality and Deity of the Holy Spirit.
- The creation and fall of man, making him a sinner before God.
- The sacrificial death of our Lord Jesus Christ for the sin of the whole world, His bodily resurrection and ascension.
- The necessity of repentance and the new birth for salvation.
- The baptism, by immersion, of those who repent and believe the Gospel.
- The maintenance of good works and godly living by all professing Christians.
- The resurrection of the body.
- The judgment of the living and the dead by the Lord Jesus Christ.
- The eternal blessedness of the righteous (the saved) and the eternal punishment of the wicked (the lost).
- The reality and personality of Satan or the devil.
- The personal return of our Lord Jesus Christ.
