Beliefs
Grace Reformed Presbyterian Church is a congregation within the Bible Presbyterian Church and therefore we have a Presbyterian form of government. The ultimate foundation for our beliefs is the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments, which we believe to be the infallible and inerrant Word of God.
We are the heirs of the Protestant Reformation and its recovery of the faith of the apostles and the early church. To put it simply, we are biblical. We read the Bible. We preach the Bible. We sing the Bible (psalms and hymns). We pray the Bible. It is this Word of God that reveals Jesus Christ and Him crucified. Our goal is to develop a Biblical worldview where what we think, say, and do is rooted in what God has revealed in Scripture. We therefore believe our calling is to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever in everything we do.
We embrace the teachings of historic, orthodox Christianity: the Trinity, the deity and humanity of our Lord Jesus Christ, his virgin birth, his substitutionary death on the cross and bodily resurrection, the doctrines of free and sovereign grace, salvation by grace through faith, and the doctrine of six twenty-four-hour creation days, just to name a few.
We are a Christ-centered congregation that holds to the Biblical teachings as summarized in the documents of the Westminster Confession of Faith, The Westminster Larger Catechism, and The Westminster Shorter Catechism.
