Affirmations

As part of the larger Christian community, ELBC joins in supporting the following affirmations. These statements apply the Christian worldview drawn from Scripture to three areas of Christian concern: the nature of the Bible, the roles of men and women, and the LGBTQ movement.  The biblical stands that these statements represent have been assailed.

We affirm the statements and commend them to you for your enlightenment, edification, and aide in navigating spiritual and moral terrain that confront and challenge us as followers of the Lord Jesus Christ. These statements are entitled:  The Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy, The Danvers Statement, and The Nashville Statement.
