Church Covenant |
Having been led, as we believe
by the Spirit of God, to receive the Lord Jesus Christ as our Savior and Lord
and, on the profession of our faith, having been baptized in the name of the
Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost, we do now, in the presence of God, and
this assembly, most solemnly and joyfully enter into covenant with one another
as one body in Christ. We engage, therefore, by the aid of the Holy Spirit to
walk together in Christian love; to strive for the advancement of this church,
in knowledge, holiness, and comfort; to promote its prosperity and spirituality;
to sustain its worship, ordinances, discipline, and doctrines; to contribute
cheerfully and regularly to the support of the ministry, the expenses of the
church, and the relief of the poor, and the spread of the gospel through all
nations.
