Religion

By faith alone Christians receive salvation and not through any works of their own.

The belief in religious freedom and its corollary, the separation of the institutions of church and state, come from the commitment to the authority of the Bible.

Views

Christians with differing approaches should be engaged with each other to discuss how the Bible should be applied to issues in our contemporary world.
