1. The One True God 獨一真神
We believe in the one eternal God, who is the Triune God, including the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. He is the Creator of heaven, earth, and all things, and the Lord of humanity's redemption. He is wholly holy, just, and loving, and His sovereignty and grace permeate history and God's plan of salvation for humankind. 我們信獨一永恆之神,祂是三位一體的上帝,包括聖父、聖子和聖靈。祂是天地萬物的創造者,也是人類救贖的主宰。祂全然聖潔、公義、慈愛,並以其主權和恩典貫穿歷史與人類救贖計劃之中。
2. The Redemption of Christ 基督的救贖
We believe that Jesus Christ is the only Son of God, fully God and fully man. He became incarnate, gave Himself for our sins, died on the cross, and rose again on the third day, defeating death and sin, thus accomplishing complete redemption. He is the only way, the truth, and the life, and no one comes to the Father except through Him. 我們信耶穌基督是神的獨生子,完全的神也是完全的人;祂道成肉身,爲我們的罪捨己,死在十字架上,第三日從死裏復活,戰勝死亡與罪惡,成就了完全的救贖。祂是通往父神的唯一道路、真理和生命,除祂以外,別無拯救。
3. The Regeneration and Sanctification by the Holy Spirit 聖靈的重生與成聖
We believe that the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Triune God. He regenerates, dwells in the hearts of believers, grants power and various gifts, leads us into truth, and enables us to continually grow in love and holiness. The Holy Spirit helps us live out the likeness of Christ, manifesting God's glory through our lives and service. 我們信聖靈是三位一體神的第三位格,祂使人重生,內住在信徒心中,賜下能力與各樣的恩賜,引導我們進入真理,並在愛與聖潔中不斷成長,活出基督的樣式,以生命與事奉彰顯神的榮耀。
4. The Authority of the Bible 聖經的權威
We believe the Bible is the inspired and inerrant truth of God, the highest authority and standard for faith, doctrine, and life. We are committed to understanding the Bible through orthodox hermeneutical principles and faithfully applying its teachings in our personal lives and church practices to glorify God and edify His people. 我們信聖經是神所默示的、全然無誤的真理,是信仰、教義與生活的最高權威和準則。我們致力於以正統的釋經原則理解聖經,並在個人生命與教會實踐中忠實地踐行其教導,以榮耀神並造就祂的子民。
5. The Fall and Need of Humanity 人類的墮落與需要
We believe that humanity was created in the image and likeness of God, possessing dignity and value. However, due to the fall of our first ancestors, Adam and Eve, all of humanity is fallen into sin, suffering the consequences of total depravity, and is unable to reconcile with God through their own actions or efforts. Only through God's grace and the redemption of Jesus Christ can we be saved. 我們信人類是按神的形象和樣式受造,具有尊嚴與價值;然而,因始祖亞當的犯罪墮落,全人類都陷入罪中,承受全然敗壞的後果,無法靠自己的行爲或努力與神和好。唯有藉着神的恩典與耶穌基督的救贖,才能得蒙拯救。
6. Grace and Faith 恩典與信心
We believe that salvation is solely by God's grace, received through the faith given by Jesus Christ, and not by works or merits. God, in His supreme will, chooses and calls sinners to Christ, granting them a heart of repentance and a new life through regeneration, making them new creations who receive eternal salvation and glory. 我們信救恩唯獨出於神的恩典,藉着耶穌基督所賜的信心領受,而非靠行爲或功德。神按祂至高無上的旨意在基督裏揀選並呼召罪人歸向基督,賜下悔改的心與重生的新生命,使他們成爲新造的人,得享永恆的救贖與榮耀。
7. The Nature and Mission of the Church 教會的本質與使命
We believe the church is the body of Christ, the gathering of God's people. It is marked by the pure preaching of the Gospel, the administration of the sacraments (Baptism and the Lord's Supper), and the maintenance of church discipline. The church is called to serve one another in holiness, to be a light and salt in the world, to testify of Christ through justice and mercy, to spread the Gospel, and to await Christ's return. 我們信教會是基督的身體,是神子民的聚集。以純正的福音宣講、聖禮的施行(洗禮與聖餐)及教會紀律的持守爲標誌。教會蒙召以聖徒彼此服侍,在世上作光作鹽,以公義與憐憫在世人面前見證基督,傳揚福音,並等候基督的再來。
8. Principles of Church Governance 教會治理的原則
We believe that Christ is the only Head of the Church, and He grants the authority to govern the church through the Scriptures. We adopt a Presbyterian system, with a body of elders called and ordained by God to form the session, which is responsible for preaching the Gospel, administering the sacraments, maintaining discipline, and shepherding the congregation. Elders are to oversee the church's affairs with prayer, wisdom, and biblical truth, ensuring sound doctrine, orderly conduct, and unity among the body. 我們信基督是教會唯一的元首,祂通過聖經賜予教會治理的權柄。我們採納長老制,由蒙神呼召並受按立的長老們組成長老會,負責宣講福音、施行聖禮、管理紀律及牧養會衆。長老當以禱告、智慧和聖經真理爲依據,共同監督教會事務,確保信仰純正、秩序井然與肢體合一。
9. The Second Coming of Christ 基督的再來
We believe that Christ will return in glory to judge the living and the dead, bringing a new heaven and new earth. The dead will be resurrected bodily, and all people will be judged. The unsaved will suffer eternal punishment, while the saved will share in His eternal glory. 我們信基督將榮耀再來,審判活人死人,帶來新天新地。死人會身體復活,世人都要受審判,未得救的人要受永刑的懲罰,而得救的人將與祂同享永恆榮耀。
