By the grace of God, the Free Presbyterian Church is:
* Reformed in Doctrine, believing in the divine authority and verbal inspiration of the Bible and the great fundamental doctrines of grace it contains. We hold that the Scriptures alone are the supreme authority in matters of faith and practice. The Free Presbyterian Church subscribes the Westminster Confession of Faith and the Articles of Fa
ith.
* Protestant in Conviction, gladly taking its stand alongside the great Christian leaders of the Reformation. The twin pillars of Protestantism, namely, a positive witness for Christ and a protest against all spiritual error, are cherished and defended.
* Separatist in Practice, believing in the Biblical doctrine of separation in the area of ecclesiastical and personal fellowship. In accordance with this,we have no association with the modern Ecumenical or Charismatic movements, nor will it fellowship with any church which has departed from the fundamental doctrines of the Word of God.
* Presbyterian in Government, being overseen by elders and deacons chosen from its communicant membership, each man genuinely born-again by the Spirit of God and dedicated to the extension of the Kingdom of Christ.
* Biblical in Worship, believing that worship must be reverent, God-glorifying and Christ-exalting. Therefore, we repudiate the modern trends towards minimizing the preaching of the Word, the incorporation of contemporary worship and song, dress that is immodest and inappropriate, and rejection of the head covering for women.
* Sanctified in Behaviour, requiring its members to lead godly lives in obedience to the Scriptures which call on God’s people to live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world. Testimonies of holiness and righteousness are vital to the life and witness of Christ’s Church in a world increasingly plagued by the pleasure crazes of this generation.
* Evangelistic in Outreach, in obedience to the great commission of Christ to “go ye into all the world and preach the gospel”. A vigorous programme of evangelistic preaching, missionary endeavour, and media ministry is actively pursued with the great objective of leading sinners to an experimental knowledge of Jesus Christ as Saviour and Lord.
