West Side Presbyterian Church
Seattle, Washington

GOD - That there is one true God -- eternal, sovereign, and holy - existing in three persons.

FATHER - That He is the source and creator of all things.

SON - That Jesus Christ is God incarnate -- fully God and fully man -- conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary.

HOLY SPIRIT - That this is God's spirit through whom He calls people to Himself, regenerates, fills and equips them for Christian service.

BIBLE - That it is God's inspired and inerrant work, through which He reveals Himself and His expectations.

MANKIND - That we are created in the image of God to glorify Him and enjoy His fellowship, but that through our disobedience we have distorted that image and separated ourselves from Him.

SALVATION - That God reaches out in grace to restore us to communion with Him through Jesus' death which pays the penalty for our sins and His resurrection through which we receive eternal life as we accept His Lordship in our lives.

CHURCH - That God calls and equips all believers to participate in the worship, fellowship, and service of particular congregation where the love and mutual interdependence of every member of the Body of Christ is expressed.

SACRAMENTS - That God has called us to witness to His covenant of salvation through the act of baptism, and to Jesus' atoning death through the celebration of the Lord's Supper.

KINGDOM OF GOD - That salvation brings us under the rule of God in every aspect of our lives, and that this rule will finally be established at the return of Jesus Christ to establish God's Kingdom throughout His universe.
