STATEMENT OF FAITH
The CEA confesses the Nicene Creed and emphazises the following basic teachings common to all Evangelical Churches:
The Bible (i.e. the books of the canon of the Old and New Testaments) as the inspired Word of God and as the only rule of faith and life.
The One living and true Triune God; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
The incarnation of the Lord Jesus Christ, God “Who was manifested in the flesh,” Who was crucified and resurrected from the dead.
The salvation of the sinner by faith alone in the perfect saving work of Christ.
The regeneration of man and the sanctification of the believer by the power of the Holy Spirit.
The second coming of Christ the Saviour, the resurrection of the dead and the final judgement, in which the redeemed will inherit eternal life and sinners who rejected the gift of God in the person of Christ will suffer eternal condemnation.
