Our Statement of Faith

We, the ERCHA Board, affirm these tenets of Christian theology:

  1. The Bible - is the verbally inspired and only infallible, authoritative Word of God, inerrant in the original autographs (2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21).
  2. God - is one Being Who eternally exists as three Persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit; all of the Persons are equal in power and glory (Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14).
  3. Jesus Christ - is fully God and fully man (John 1:1,14), born of a virgin (Matthew 1:18), sinless in His life (Hebrews 4:15), He died vicariously on the cross as a substitute for sinful men (Hebrew 9:15), He rose bodily from the grave (John 20:1-9; 24-31; Acts 2-24), and now reigns with the Father (Acts 1:11; Hebrews 9:28; Matthew 24:30).
  4. All humans - are sinful by nature (Romans 3:23; 5:12) and can only be forgiven by the expression of trust in Jesus as Savior (John 3:16), brought about by the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit (Titus 3:5-7).
  5. We believe - in the continuing ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian can live a godly life (Romans 8:1-17).
