As the Scripture Union family throughout the world, we accept and proclaim the historic truths of the Christian faith including the following:

a) God and the human race
    We hold that the Lord our God is one:
        Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
        And that He fulfills His sovereign purposes
           - in creation, revelation, redemption, judgment, and the coming of His kingdom -
         By calling out from the world a people
        United to Himself and to each other in love
    We acknowledge that though God made us
        in His own likeness and images,
        conferring on us dignity and worth
       and enabling us to respond to Himself,
       we now are members of a fallen race;
        We have sinned and come short og His glory.
    We believe thet the Father
       has shown us His holy love
       in giving Jesus Christ, His only Son, for us,
      while through our sinfulness and guilt, we were subject
      to His wrath and condermnation;
        and has shown his grace
        by putting sinner right with Himself
        when they place their trust in His Son.
    We confess Jesus Christ
        as Lord and God;
        as truly human, born of the virgin Mary;
        ss Servan, sinless, full of grace and truth;
        as only Mediator and Savior, dying on the cross in our
        place, representating us God,
        redeeming us from the grip, guilt and punishment of sin;
        ss Victor over Santan and all his forces,
        rising from death with a glorious body,
        being taken up to be with His Father,
        one day retuning personally in glory and judgment
         to establish His kingdom.
    We believe in the Holy Spirit
        who convict the world of guilt in regard to sin,
        righteousness and judgment;
        who makes the death of Christ effective to sinners,
        declaring that they must now turn to Christ in repentance,
        and directing their trust towards the Lord Jesus Christ;
        who through the new birth
        makes us partake in the life of the risen Christ, and
        who is present within all believers,
        illuminating their minds to grasp the truth of Scripture,
        producing in them His fruit,
        granting to them His gifts, and
        empowering them for services in the world.

b) The Sciptures
    We believe that the Old and New Testament Scriptures
        are God-breathed, since their writers spoke from God
        as they were moved by the Holy Spirit, hence
        are fully trustworthy in all that they affirm; and
        are out highest authority for faith and life.

c) The Church and its Mission
    We recognize the Church
        as the body of Christ,
        held together and growing up in Him; both
        as a total fellowship throughout the world, and
        as the local congregation in which believers gather.
    We acknowledge the commission of Christ
        To proclaim the Good News to all people,
        Making them disciples, and
        Teaching them to obey Him;
        And
    We acknowledge the command of Christ
        To love our neighbors,
        Resulting in service to the church and society,
        In seeking reconciliation for all with God and their fellows,
        In spreading Christ’s justice in an unjust world.

        … until He comes again
