The
Evangelical Alliance Basis of Faith
The one true God who lives eternally in three persons—the Father,
the Son and the Holy Spirit.
The love, grace and sovereignty of God in creating, sustaining,
ruling, redeeming and judging the world.
The divine inspiration and supreme authority of the Old and New
Testament Scriptures, which are the written Word of God—fully
trustworthy for faith and conduct.
The dignity of all people, made male and female in God's image to
love, be holy and care for creation, yet corrupted by sin, which
incurs divine wrath and judgement.
The incarnation of God’s eternal Son, the Lord Jesus Christ—born
of the virgin Mary; truly divine and truly human, yet without sin.
The atoning sacrifice of Christ on the cross: dying in our place,
paying the price of sin and defeating evil, so reconciling us with
God.
The bodily resurrection of Christ, the first fruits of our
resurrection; his ascension to the Father, and his reign and mediation
as the only Saviour of the world.
The justification of sinners solely by the grace of God through
faith in Christ.
The ministry of God the Holy Spirit, who leads us to repentance,
unites us with Christ through new birth, empowers our discipleship and
enables our witness.
The Church, the body of Christ both local and universal, the
priesthood of all believers—given life by the Spirit and endowed
with the Spirit's gifts to worship God and proclaim the gospel,
promoting justice and love.
The personal and visible return of Jesus Christ to fulfil the
purposes of God, who will raise all people to judgement, bring eternal
life to the redeemed and eternal condemnation to the lost, and
establish a new heaven and new earth.
