  • What do Presbyterians believe?

    There is no strict set of beliefs that unites Presbyterians or separates them from other followers of Christ. Like other Christians, Presbyterians believe in: God - the Creator of the universe, the Holy Spirit - the presence of God in the world and in the believer; the Church - a universal company of Christ's followers; forgiveness of sin - made possible by the crucifixion of Jesus; life everlasting shown by the resurrection of Jesus; the Bible - the inspired Word of God.
