statement of beliefs
The beliefs of Redeemer Presbyterian Church West Side are most fully summarized in the Westminster Confession of Faith along with the Larger and Shorter Catechisms. These secondary documents are viewed as subordinate to the Bible, which alone is viewed as the infallible Word of God.
These historic statements of the faith were written in the 17th century and have stood as the doctrinal standards of Bible-believing Presbyterians for almost 400 years.
Our denomination, the Presbyterian Church in America, holds to the Westminster Standards as our core statement of theology.
