GOD
Our God is Father, Son and Spirit, eternal Saviour and Judge.
​
THE BIBLE
We believe that God has revealed himself in the Bible and speaks today through it.
THE HUMAN RACE
We were made for God, but have sinned and need to be saved through Jesus.
THE LORD JESUS CHRIST
Fully God and fully man, He is our sacrifice for sins on the cross making us right with God. He died, on the third day rose again and ascended to Heaven and will come again as judge.
SALVATION
Christians are saved as a gift from God because of Jesus’ sacrifice.
THE HOLY SPIRIT
Fully God, he lives in and empowers all believers.
THE CHURCH
A messy group of people, whose lives are changed by God.
THE FUTURE
Jesus will come again to judge the world. Those who reject him will receive what they ask for, life without God, while those who trust him are welcomed into life with him forever.
LONGER STATEMENT OF FAITH: fiec.org.uk/who-we-are/beliefs
Streatham Central Church is glad to be a member of a number of different Church Networks. We are formally affiliated to Love Streatham, Co-Mission, the FIEC and the Evangelical Alliance.
Every year our pastors/elders reaffirm their commitment to the FIEC Doctrinal Basis and Ethos Statements. Even though individual members of SCC are free to agree or disagree with the wording of these statements, we encourage every member and prospective member of SCC to carefully read them in order to understand and be comfortable with the kind of biblical teaching and ethos we agree to be bound by and to teach as pastors of the church. We would be delighted to talk through any questions or concerns you have, because we want this to be a helpful means to important conversations.
