About Us

Our Story

The ROCK International Worship Centre was established in 2013 for the purpose of fulfilling the Great Commission of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are a family of people from various nations and diverse cultures. Our commonality is in the fact that we are a Bible-based family of believers who have a passion to impact our community, nation and the world with the love and peace of God.


We offer a relationship with God through Jesus Christ, beginning with salvation, and moving to newness of life which can only come through the power of the Holy Spirit. Since the Lord opened the doors for us we have witnessed the power of God in many different ways: miracles of salvation, healing, God’s provision through prayer and ministration.

Core Values

  • Rooted in Scripture

    “All scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.”

    ~ 2 Timothy 3:16-17


    We are a church established in our faith and overflowing with thankfulness because we continue to seek to be fully rooted and built up in Christ (Colossians 2:7). At The ROCK International Worship Centre we are committed to be fully grounded in scripture and fully empowered by the Holy Spirit. The Bible is our final authority, and the Holy Spirit guides and helps us fulfil God’s destiny for us as a church.

  • Unity

    “How wonderful and pleasant it is when brothers live together in harmony!”

    ~ Psalm 133:1


    At The ROCK International Worship Centre, we believe the Lord commands a blessing where there is unity. Unity is the quality of being fused into one. We practice a team approach to ministry, problem solving, and decision-making, while operating within the integrity of our structure at all times. Relationships are first priority, and we aim to deal with disagreements and offenses in a timely and Biblical manner.

  • Generosity

    “Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, but whoever sows generously will also reap generously.”

    ~ 2 Corinthians 9:6


    We acknowledge that God has so generously given to us. While admitting we cannot out-give God, we are committed to seeking out opportunities to generously share what God has blessed us with. We understand that generosity is to show kindness, understanding, and unselfish ways, especially regarding a willingness to give away our valuable possessions, including money.

  • Servanthood

    “God has given each of you a gift from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another.”

    ~ 1 Peter 4:10


    God has called us not to be masters but to serve one another, we therefore endeavour to demonstrate an attitude of servanthood in our day to day life at every level of our ministry.

  • Excellence

    “Whatever you do, do well.”

    ~ Ecclesiastes 9:10


    “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.”

    ~ Colossians 3:23


    We believe that excellence is doing the very best with what you have. We are therefore committed and disciplined to giving careful attention to every task we carry out, no matter the size. Our excellence is guided by our desire to please our Master in all we do and have.

Beliefs

As a Bible believing and teaching church, we believe in the full gospel of Jesus Christ, for it has the power to change lives.

  • The Scripture

    We believe that the Bible is the Word of God. It is verbally inspired by Him in the original manuscripts. It is infallible and complete. The Bible is our supreme authority for faith and practice - 

    (2 Timothy 3:16-17 ● 2 Peter 1:20-21).

  • The Godhead

    We believe that the Godhead eternally exists in three persons – the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are one God, having exactly the same honour, confidence, and obedience - (Deuteronomy 6:4 ● Matthew 28:19 ● 2 Corinthians 13:14).

  • The Person & Work of Jesus Christ

    We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God. He came into this world, to manifest God to man, fulfilling prophecy, and became the Redeemer of the Lost World. He was born of a virgin, received a human body, and a sinless nature - (Luke 1:30-35 ● John 1:18, 3:16)


    We believe that, on the human side, He became and remained a perfect, but Sinless man throughout His life; however, He retained His absolute Deity, being at the same time very God and very man - (Luke 2:40 ● John 1:1-2 ● Philippians 2:5-8).


    We believe that, in His infinite love for the lost, He voluntarily accepted His Father’s will and became the divinely provided sacrificial lamb that took away the sin of the world. He bore the Holy judgments against sin that the righteousness of God must impose. He died to purchase our redemption and thus to fulfil God’s plan for sinful man. His death was substitutionary and vicarious - (John 1:29 ● Isaiah 53:5-7 ● Romans 3:24-25 ● 2 Corinthians 5:14 ● Hebrews 10:5-14).


    We believe that He arose the third day from the dead with a glorified body - (Matthew 28:1-10 ● Mark 16:1-4).


    We believe that He literally ascended to heaven and that He is on the right hand of the Father interceding for all truly born-again believers as our advocate - (Acts 1:9-10 ● Hebrews 1:3, 8:1 ● 1 John 2:1-2).


    We believe that He will literally return a second time - (John 14:2-3).


  • The Person & Work of the Holy Spirit

    We believe that the Holy Spirit is the Third Person of the Trinity. He is co-equal in every aspect relative to divine attributes with the other two persons of the Godhead. He indwells every child of God, and by His baptism, unites all to Christ in one body. He is the source of all power and all acceptable worship and service and is ever present to testify of Christ - (John 14:16-17).


    We believe that in this age, the Holy Spirit has various well-defined ministries. It is the responsibility of every Christian to understand them and adjust to them. These ministries are: restraining of evil in the world; convicting the world of sin; regenerating of all Christians; baptizing of all Christians into the one body of Christ; filling (continually) of all Christians who are yielded to the power, teaching, and service - (John 3:6, 14:26, 16:7-15, 13 ● Acts 1:8-9 ● 1 Corinthians 12:13, 6:19 ● Ephesians 4:30, 5:18 ● 2 Thessalonians 2:7 ● 1 John 2:20).


  • The Depravity of Man

    We believe that man was originally and immediately created in the image and in the likeness of God. But, as a result of Adam’s sin, man inherited a sinful nature. He is totally affected and corrupted by sin and is separated from God and is essentially evil. Apart from divine grace he is spiritually dead, and this has been passed down to the entire human race, with Jesus Christ being the only exception - (Genesis 1:26, 2:17, 3:1-6, 6:5 ● Psalm 51:5 ● Jeremiah 17:9 ● Romans 3:10, 3:23, 5:12, 19 ● 1 John 3:8).

  • Salvation

    We believe that salvation is a free gift offered to man by God. Its basis is the death, burial, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. Man receives this free gift of eternal life by realizing his sinful condition, believing that Jesus Christ died for his sins, and then receiving him as his own personal Lord and Saviour. Man in no way can ever work his own way to heaven. Salvation is based solely on the finished work of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross of Calvary, by the grace of God. That precious blood of the Lord Jesus Christ cleanses from all sin anyone whom accepts God’s free gift - (John 3:16, 5:24 ● Acts 13:39, 16:31 ● Romans 10:9-10; 2 Corinthians 5:21).

  • Satan

    We believe that Satan is a created being and actually exists, having a personality. Initially, he was called Lucifer and held the highest angelic position in heaven. He is the “God of this world” and the enemy of God and the Christian. Sin originated with him in Heaven and he is the one who tempted Eve in the garden. He is the author of all deception. He will be ultimately cast into the Lake of Fire and suffer eternal punishment - (Genesis 3:1-6 ● Isaiah 14:12-17 ● Ezekiel 28:12-19 ● Revelation 20:10).

  • The Resurrection of the Saved & Unsaved

    We believe in the bodily resurrection of all men, the saved to eternal life and the unsaved to judgment and everlasting punishment - (Matthew 25:46 ● John 5:28-29, 11:25-26 ● Acts 24:15 ● Revelation 20:5-6, 11-15).

  • Separation

    We believe that all truly born-again Christians have a personal responsibility before God to live in such a manner as not to bring reproach upon the Lord Jesus Christ. They should separate from all manner and appearance of evil and all religious apostasy. Though living in the world, Christians are not to be associated with or identified with the world - (Romans 12:1-2, 14:13 ● 2 Corinthians 6:14, 17:2 ● Timothy 3:1-5 ● 1 John 2:15-17 ● 2 John 9:10).

  • Earthly Institutes

    We believe that the family was established by God and is primarily responsible for the training of the children within the home - (Genesis 2:21-25 ● Job 1:1-5 ● Ephesians 6:1-4 ● Colossians 3:18-21).


    We believe that government was established by God and that every Christian should be in submission to its laws, but must obey God rather than man when government goes against God’s Word - (Matthew 17:24-27, 22:21 ● Acts 4:19-20, 5:29 ● Romans 13:1-7).


    We believe that the Church was established by God to evangelise the lost and to edify the saved - (Acts 2, 11:26 ● Matthew 28:19-20 ● Ephesians 4:11-16 ● Hebrews 10:25).

Ordinances

Water Baptism

Following faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Word of God commands that the new believer in Christ should be baptised in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit - (Matthew 28:19 ● Acts 2:38 ● Mark 16:16 ● Acts 8:12, 36-38; 10:47-48).

Holy Communion

A unique time of communion in the presence of God when the elements of bread and wine (the body and the blood of Jesus Christ) are taken in remembrance of Jesus Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross) - (Matthew 26:26-29 ● 1 Corinthians 10:16, 11:23-25).
