STATEMENT OF FAITH AND PRACTICE: The members of these Congregations
confess the One God, who is from everlasting the Father, the Son, and the
Holy Spirit. They are covenanted to walk together in love, as becomes a body
of disciples of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, our Lord and Savior. Christ is
acknowledged as the only and sovereign Head of this Church. Members are
consecrated to His service, trusting in the sustaining power of the Holy
Spirit working in and through them. They seek to be
faithful in Worship, Work, and Witness
in order to build up His Church. They share the Gospel with all people, and
strive to grow in grace and in the knowledge of God.
The Scriptures of
the Old and New Testament are the only infallible rule for faith and
practice, by which all preaching, teaching and actions are guided. We accept
the Apostles’ Creed and the Nicene Creed as true expressions of our
Christian Faith.
The two Sacraments of the Church are Holy Baptism and Holy Communion.
Baptisms in this Church are administered to infants, or to adult believers,
without prejudice as to the validity of the Sacrament. Only the Appointed Clergy
of the National Evangelical Church shall administer the Sacraments in all
members Congregations. If visiting ordained clergymen are present, they may be
invited to share in these services.
