NCC is both Protestant and evangelical. We affirm the validity and
truth of the ancient creeds of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church,
especially the Nicene Creed.
We also emphasise those doctrines that characterise
the Evangelical tradition:
| * |
salvation by grace alone through personal
faith in the atoning death of Jesus Christ, |
| * |
the infilling power of the Holy Spirit,
|
| * |
and the authority of Holy Scripture
as the supreme rule of life and faith. |
Our membership includes Christians from Protestant
and Orthodox backgrounds.
The principles and practice of our church are laid out in the Church Constitution.
Decisions implementing these principles are made by Church Elders, ordained for life, and the Church Deacons,
elected to two-year terms by the members of the church.
