What We Believe
|
As Presbyterians, some of the principles articulated during the Protestant Reformation by John Calvin remain the core of our beliefs today. Among these are... |
The Priesthood of All Believers
It is everyone’s job–ministers and lay people–to share this Good News with the
world. That is why the Presbyterian Church is governed at all
levels by a combination of clergy and laity, men and women alike.
Justification by Grace through Faith
Our salvation through Jesus is God’s generous gift to us and not the result of
our own accomplishments.
The Authority of the Scripture
We believe that our knowledge of God and God’s purpose for humanity comes from
the Bible, particularly what is revealed in the New Testament through the life
of Jesus Christ.
The Sovereignty of God
We believe that God is the supreme authority throughout the universe.
