What We Believe
Harmony Presbyterian Church is a Confessional church committed to historic
Reformed Presbyterianism. Thus we subscribe (as subordinate to Scripture)
to the Westminster Confession of Faith and Larger and Shorter Catechisms as
being the system of doctrine set forth in Scripture.
A Brief Synopsis of the Beliefs of the Presbyterian Church
in America
1. The Bible is the inspired and inerrant Word of God, the only infallible rule of
faith and practice.
2. There is one God, eternal and self-existing in three persons (Father, Son and
Holy Spirit) who are to be equally loved, honored, and adored.
3. All mankind participated in Adam's fall from his original sinless state and is
thus lost in sin and totally helpless.
4. The Sovereign God, for no other reason than His own unfathomable love
and mercy, has chosen lost sinners from every nation to be redeemed by the
quickening power of the Holy Spirit and through the atoning death and
resurrection of His son, Jesus Christ.
5. Those sinners whom the Spirit quickens, come to believe in Christ as Savior
by the Word of God, are born again, become sons of God, and will persevere to
the end.
6. Justification is by faith and through it the undeserving sinner is clothed with
the righteousness of Christ.
7. The goal of God's salvation in the life of the Christian is holiness, good
works, and service for the glory of God.
8. At death the Christian's soul passes immediately into the presence of God
and the unbeliever's soul is eternally separated from God unto condemnation.
9. Baptism is a sign of God's covenant and is properly administered to children
of believers in their infancy as well as to those who come as adults to trust in
Christ.
10. Jesus Christ will return to earth, visibly and bodily, at a time when He is
not expected, to consummate history and the eternal plan of God.
11. The Gospel of God's salvation in Jesus Christ must be published to all the
world as a witness before Jesus Christ returns.
