We believe that the Holy S})irit takes of the tilings
of Christ and sliows them unto us, awakening our con-
sciences, leading to repentance, to the confession of our [
sins and theforsaldng of the same, sanctifying us and wit- f
nessing with our spirits that we are tlie sons of God. |

We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ has established |
a visible church, to consist of tiiose who give reasonable [
evidence of a change of heart from a love of the world t
to a supreme regard for the Redeemer, and that He re- |
quires all such to confess Him before men, as they hope f
He will confess their names when lie cometh in the glory r
of the Father with the holy Angels. I

We believe that the Sacraments entrusted to us are |
Baptism, wherel)y water signifies the washing away of |
sins through Christ, to Avhich believers with their child- {
ren are entitled ; and the Lord's Supper, to whicli those
alone may come who have publicly professed faith in
Christ.
VIII.
We believe that at the end of tlie world there will be
a Resurrection of the dead and a Final Judgment of all
mankind, who must then give account for all deeds, done
in the body, to Christ the Judge, when the wicked shall
be condemned to everlasting punishment, but the right-
eous shall be received into everlasting life and glory.Cite this page
