United Church of Cohoes

Tenets of the Confessing Church Movement:

1. Jesus Christ alone is Lord of all and the way of salvation.

2. That holy Scripture is the triune God's revealed Word, the Church's only infallible rule of faith and life.

3. That God's people are called to holiness in all aspects of life. This includes honoring the sanctity of marriage between a man and a woman, the only relationship within which sexual activity is appropriate.

Statement of Faith

Believing the call of Christ is to all people, we seek to encourage the growth of Christian disciples within the Body, while at the same time reaching out with the Gospel message to all who would hear. “Christ crucified and risen” is the basis for our being. We affirm the Bible to be the inspired word of God as we seek to interpret its teaching by power of the Holy Spirit, and all of the decisions we make as a Church proceed from these fundamental priciples.
