The
Evangelical Alliance Basis of Faith
Evangelical Christians
accept the revelation of the triune God given in the Scriptures of the Old
and New Testaments and confess the historic faith of the Gospel therein
set forth.
They here assert doctrines
that they regard as crucial to the understanding of the faith, and which
should issue in mutual love, practical Christian service and evangelistic
concern.
- The
sovereignty and grace of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy
Spirit in creation, providence, revelation, redemption and final
judgment.
- The
divine inspiration of the Holy Scripture and its consequent entire
trustworthiness and supreme authority in all matters of faith and
conduct.
- The
universal sinfulness and guilt of fallen man, making him subject to
God's wrath and condemnation.
- The
substitutionary sacrifice of the incarnate Son of God as the sole all
sufficient ground of redemption from the guilt and power of sin and
from its eternal consequences.
- The
justification of the sinner solely by the grace of God through faith
in Christ crucified and risen from the dead.
- The
illuminating, regenerating, indwelling and sanctifying work of God the
Holy Spirit.
- The
priesthood of all believers, who form the universal Church, the Body
of which Christ is the Head and which is committed by His command to
the proclamation of the Gospel throughout the world.
- The
expectation of the personal, visible return of the Lord Jesus Christ
in power and glory.
