- Resolution of Inclusion, adopted November 4, 2007
"We, the subscribers, being as we believe, sincere disciples of Jesus
Christ, and having made public profession of our faith in him, do hereby
unite ourselves in one body as a Christian Church, to be known as the
United Church of Warren.
The objects for which we thus unite ourselves are, the honor of God, the
support of public worship, the observance of the Christian ordinances of
Baptism and the Lord's Supper, the growth of ourselves and all who shall
hereafter unite with us in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and
Saviour, Jesus Christ, and the preaching of the gospel to the world.
We shall as soon as possible, ask the fellowship of the Christian
churches of the Congregational order, and will conform in doctrine and
practice as a church to their established order so far as shall be
consistent with duty as made known to us.
- Articles of Agreement, adopted July 23, 1885.
United Church of Christ Statement of Faith
We believe in God, the Eternal Spirit, Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ and our Father, and to his deeds we testify:
He calls the worlds into being, creates man in his own image and sets
before him the ways of life and death.
He seeks in holy love to save all people from aimlessness and sin.
He judges men and nations by his righteous will declared through
prophets and apostles.
In Jesus Christ, the man of Nazareth, our crucified and risen Lord, he
has come to us and shared our common lot, conquering sin and death and
reconciling the world to himself.
He bestows upon us his Holy Spirit, creating and renewing the church of
Jesus Christ, binding in covenant faithful people of all ages, tongues,
and races.
He calls us into his church to accept the cost and joy of discipleship,
to be his servants in the service of men, to proclaim the gospel to all
the world and resist the powers of evil, to share in Christ's baptism
and eat at his table, to join him in his passion and victory.
He promises to all who trust him forgiveness of sins and fullness of
grace, courage in the struggle for justice and peace, his presence in
trial and rejoicing, and eternal life in his kingdom which has no end.
Blessing and honor, glory and power be unto him.
Amen.
