About

Our Beliefs

WE BELIEVE the Holy Scriptures to be the divinely inbreathed, infallible, inerrant and authoritative Word of God.

WE BELIEVE that there is one God, eternally existent in the Persons of the Holy Trinity.

WE BELIEVE in the virgin birth of the Lord Jesus Christ, His deity, His sinless humanity and perfect life, the eternal all-sufficiency of His atoning death, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the Father’s right hand, and His personal coming again at His second advent as the Blessed Hope of the Church.

WE BELIEVE that justification is a judicial act of God on the believer’s behalf solely on the merits of Christ, and that regeneration by the power of the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for personal salvation. Salvation is received through repentance toward God and faith in Jesus Christ.

WE BELIEVE in holy living, the present day reality of the baptism in the Holy Spirit according to Acts 2:4, the gifts of the Holy Spirit, and the Lord’s supernatural healing of the human body.

WE BELIEVE in Christ’s Lordship of the Church, the observance of the ordinances of Christian baptism by immersion for believers and the Lord’s Supper.

WE BELIEVE in the eternal blessedness of the redeemed in heaven and the eternal doom of the unregenerate in the lake of fire.

Bus Ministry

Since the 1970’s Bethel has been sending out a fleet of buses to Hamilton neighborhoods on Sunday mornings and bringing people to church! The belief that anyone who wants to go to church should be able to get to church has been a long-standing value at BGT. Bethel continues to send out four big blue buses and three mini-buses every Sunday morning, covering routes throughout the city and bringing people to church.

If you would like to catch a BGT bus to a Sunday morning service, please contact the church to find out if you live near one of the neighborhoods our buses service. Call (905) 387-6530 during the week from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm, or drop by and visit our Reception Desk during weekday business hours or after one of our Sunday services.
