​
​​What is the meaning of church membership?
The Presbyterian understanding of church membership is based on the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. One becomes an active member of the church through faith in Jesus Christ as Savior, and acceptance of his Lordship in all of life.
​
The Presbyterian Church is part of the universal church of Jesus Christ, yet also unique due to its protestant theology and self governance. Still, as Paul teaches in Ephesians 4:5-6, we have "one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and one Father of us all."
