God alone is able to offer us a glorious future. Trusting in our own strength, resources, abilities and leaders is not going to save us from our present troubles. Instead, we must trust wholeheartedly in God who alone is able to rescue and deliver us from our present plight and transfer us into His glorious kingdom.

God, who is able to strengthen us through the Gospel, is to be praised. The preaching of Jesus Christ brings about the obedience of faith, resulting in Gospel-shaped lives that glorify God. Gospel centredness entails both Gospel truth and lives transformed by the Gospel.

The faith we value is not just theoretical but experienced in everyday life, leading to a living relationship with God. We actively seek the present-day work of the Spirit, expecting him to move in and through us.

Israel's redemption points to a far greater redemption that God has accomplished through His Son. In Christ, we are renewed and empowered by the Spirit to be a people who truly know God.
