Statement
of Faith of the EFCA |
|
The doctrinal position of The Evangelical Free Church of America is
summarized in our twelve-article Statement of Faith. We believe:
-
The
Scriptures, both Old and New Testaments, to be the inspired Word of God,
without error in the original writings, the complete revelation of His will
for the salvation of men and the Divine and final authority for Christian
faith and life.
-
In
one God, Creator of all things, infinitely perfect and eternally existing in
three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
-
That
Jesus Christ is true God and true man, having been conceived of the Holy
Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He died on the cross, a sacrifice for
our sins according to the Scriptures. Further, He arose bodily from the
dead, ascended into heaven, where, at the right hand of the Majesty on High,
He is now our High Priest and Advocate.
-
That
the ministry of the Holy Spirit is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ and,
during this age, to convict men, regenerate the believing sinner, and
indwell, guide, instruct and empower the believer for godly living and
service.
-
That
man was created in the image of God but fell into sin and is, therefore,
lost, and only through regeneration by the Holy Spirit can salvation and
spiritual life be obtained.
-
That
the shed blood of Jesus Christ and His resurrection provide the only ground
for justification and salvation for all who believe, and only such as
receive Jesus Christ are born of the Holy Spirit and, thus become children
of God.
-
That
water baptism and the Lord's Supper are ordinances to be observed by the
Church during the present age. They are, however, not to be regarded as
means of salvation.
-
That
the true Church is composed of all such persons who through saving faith in Jesus Christ
have been regenerated by the Holy Spirit and are united
together in the Body of Christ of which He is the Head.
-
That
only those who are, thus, members of the true Church shall be eligible for
membership in the local church.
-
That
Jesus Christ is the Lord and Head of the Church and that every local church
has the right, under Christ, to decide and govern its own affairs.
-
In
the personal, premillennial and imminent coming of our Lord
Jesus Christ and
that this "Blessed Hope" has a vital bearing on the personal life
and service of the believer.
-
In
the bodily resurrection of the dead; of the believer to everlasting
blessedness and joy with the Lord; of the unbeliever to judgment and
everlasting conscious punishment.
