United Reformed Churches
The United Reformed Churches in North America declare complete subjection
and obedience to the Word of God, delivered to us in the inspired, infallible and
inerrant book of Holy Scripture. We are fully persuaded that the Reformed Creeds
(The Heidelberg Catechism, Belgic Confession and Canons of Dort) do fully agree
with this Word of God and thus confess them. We acknowledge Jesus Christ to be
the supreme and only head of the Church. This headship is exercised in the church
by his Word and Spirit through God-ordained offices, for the sake of the purity of
doctrine and the holiness of life.
