The Evangelical Church is orthodox in its beliefs, evangelical in its emphasis, and Wesleyan-Armenian in its interpretation of the scriptural meaning of salvation. Thus its mission is to proclaim the good news of a free and full salvation to all men in this present life. In keeping with this purpose, it puts special emphasis upon the following points of truth:
1. The Divine inspiration, reliability and authority of the Holy Scriptures as the norm of Christian faith and conduct.
2. The estrangement of man from God, from his fellow man, and from his own true being, vocation, and fulfillment of life.
3. The necessity of repentance for sin, justification by faith, the new birth, the direct witness of the Holy Spirit to adoption into the family of God, and entire sanctification, wherein the Christian believer experiences the reality of full inner cleansing from inherited moral depravity, and the indwelling fullness of the Holy Spirit.
4. A life of such inward purity and outward righteousness that marks the Christian as being separate in mind and character from the unsaved multitudes whom he seeks to win to Jesus Christ.
5. The practice of simplicity and freedom in worship, unburdened by elaborate ritual or pagan superstition.
6. A life of total dedication to God, making all Christian service to be a responsible and joyful stewardship to Him.
7. The abundant life of love, righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit, through whose indwelling fullness the Christian is enabled to live victoriously, serve Christ effectively, and look expectantly for His promised return.
We believe these truths are living issues for every age and that the propagation of these truths is the reason for our existence.
