Statement of Faith Church Covenant


We believe the Bible, consisting of the Old and New Testaments to be the inspired and authoritative Word of God.

We believe the Bible is the final authority in all issues regarding the Christian faith and practice.

We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

We believe in the deity of Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious atoning death, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father and in His personal return in power and glory at the end of this present age.

We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful men regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.

We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling power and fullness the Christian is enabled to live a godly life in the present evil world.

We believe in the Spiritual unity of all believers in Christ. We believe in the resurrection of the dead to either eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ, or eternal damnation for the unbelieving.


Acknowledging Jesus Christ to be our Savior and Lord, God as our Father, the Holy Spirit as our Guide, and the Holy Scriptures as our rule of faith and practice, and recognizing the privilege and duty of uniting ourselves for Christian fellowship, we do now in the sight of God solemnly covenant and agree with each other to associate ourselves together in this church of the Lord Jesus Christ for the worship of God and service to mankind. Ever mindful of our fellow members we promise, to walk with them in faithfulness and Christian love. And we promise, insofar as we are able, we will attend the services of this church, observe its sacraments, share in its work and obligations, support its benevolence, promote its peace, purity and prosperity.
