God has appointed besides the Word and Prayer the Sacraments of Baptism
and the Lord's Supper.
|
6a.
|
Baptism -- The Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster, under Christ the Great
King and Head of the Church, Realizing that bitter controversy raging around
the mode and proper subjects of the ordinance of Christian baptism has divided
the Body of Christ when that Body should have been united in Christian love
and Holy Ghost power to stem the onslaughts and hell-inspired assaults of
modernism, hereby affirms that each member of the Free Presbyterian Church
shall have liberty to decide for himself which course to adopt on these
controverted issues, each member giving due honor in love to the views held
by differing brethren, but none espousing the error of baptismal regeneration.
|
6b.
|
The Lord's Supper -- The Lord's Supper has been appointed by our Lord
for Remembrance of Him in His work as Saviour. Its purpose to the child
of God is for strengthening, and putting a visible difference between the
redeemed and the unregenerate. This Sacrament will be observed once each
month in every Free Presbyterian Congregation, or more frequently as each
local congregation shall decide.
|
7.
|
The visible and personal return of our Lord Jesus Christ.
|

|
These Articles, together with the Larger
Catechism, , the Shorter Catechism,
and The Westminster Confession of Faith, form
the Subordinate Standards of the Free Presbyterian Church.
