About Our Name
We believe that the days of living in ignorance are over. God has given His grace to repent and be Reformed by TRUTH of His Word. As Scripture declares, “You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” It is this truth, the Christ Jesus who not just set us free from sin but also from all false beliefs and doctrines. We affirm that Christ alone is the Truth and the only way to God. We capitalize TRUTH to emphasize its importance, as it also reflects the core of our Protestant Christian Faith, grounded in these essential principles which stands as:
T: Total Sufficiency of Scripture (Sola Scriptura)
● Meaning: The Bible alone is the ultimate authority in all matters of faith and practice, providing complete and sufficient guidance for believers.
● Truth Connection: T emphasizes that truth is found fully and sufficiently in Scripture, the God-breathed Word.
R: Redemption by Grace Alone (Sola Gratia)
● Meaning: Salvation is a free gift from God’s grace, not something humans can earn through their own works.
● Truth Connection: R reminds us that true freedom and redemption come not from human effort, but solely by God’s grace.
U: Union with God by Faith Alone (Sola Fide)
● Meaning: We are justified before God solely through faith in Jesus Christ, not by our works.
● Truth Connection: U represents the unshakeable truth that we are united to God by faith alone in Christ, emphasizing trust and reliance on His finished work.
T: Transformation through Christ Alone (Solus Christus)
● Meaning: Jesus Christ is the only Mediator between God and man, and He is the only way to eternal life.
● Truth Connection: T highlights that true transformation and salvation are through Christ alone, reinforcing the centrality of Jesus in the truth of the gospel.
H: Honor and Glory to God Alone (Soli Deo Gloria)
● Meaning: All of life and salvation are ultimately for God’s glory, and we exist to praise and worship Him.
● Truth Connection: H declares that all truth is rooted in glorifying God alone, as He is the ultimate source and end of all things.
About Our Slogan
“Covenant God-Covenant People”
We believe that the God of the Bible is a covenantal God, whose steadfast love and faithfulness endure forever toward those who fear Him and to their children. He commands His people to worship Him as revealed in the sacred Scripture, guiding them to live their whole lives as His covenant people in every aspect of their lives before Him and enjoy Him.
“Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one! You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. “And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. -Deuteronomy 6:4-7 NKJV
