We are a Confessional Church

What is a Confessional Church?
We are a confessional church, which means we hold to a written statement that summarizes what we believe the Bible teaches. This confession is not equal to the Bible, but it helps us clearly explain our faith and stay grounded in sound doctrine. It shows what we believe about God, salvation, the church, and how we should live. Having a confession protects the church from confusion and helps us stay united in the truth. It also helps others understand what we teach and why we teach it.

It was meant to show that their beliefs were rooted in Scripture and consistent with historic Christian teaching. This confession helped churches stay united and faithful during times of confusion and persecution.
