Reformed

 

We believe that the true church―the invisible, universal church―is the mystical body of Christ. Yet the church, as we experience in visible and tangible ways, is and must be progressively transformed (renewed and corrected) by Christ because of human nature and human sin. Through Christ, the church is renewed in its doctrine, liturgy, life and governance so that it can ever more faithfully carry out Christ's mandate to preach the good news, teach God's Word and word, to baptize in Christ's name. As Christ's agent, the church serves to transform all aspects of human life until "God shall be All in all."
