We believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the Word of God and therefore the Bible is only infallible rule of faith and life.
Believing them to be a clear statement of what the Bible teaches, we accept as our subordinate standards the Westminster Confession of Faith and the Westminster Larger and Shorter Catechisms.
Additionally, we hold to the following documents as a means of doing things in our churches decently and in order. (1 Corinthians 14:40)
