Having been brought, as we believe, by divine grace to accept the Lord Jesus Christ as our Savior and Preserver, we do now solemnly and joyfully covenant and agree, by God’s help to walk together in brotherly love.
We, therefore, enter into covenant as members this church and as Christians, that we will watch over each other in love, sharing together each other in love, sharing each others joys and sorrows; and that we will not forsake the assembling of ourselves together, nor omit the great duty of prayer for ourselves and others; that by divine assistance we will endeavor to bring up those under our care in the nurture and admonition of the Lord; that in all things we will strive to exemplify our profession by the corresponding practice; to abstain from all sinful conformity to the world; to be just in our dealings, faithful in our engagements, and exemplary in all departments; that we will sustain the worship, ordinances, discipline, and doctrine of this Church, that we contribute cheerfully with our tithes and offerings to the church according to our ability, to support of the ministry, the expense of the church, the relief of the poor, and the general spread of the Gospel.
In keeping this solemn Covenant, may we ever enjoy the blessings, and the presence of the Great Head of the Church.
