God as Trinity

As Presbyterians, we believe in the Holy Trinity - God revealed in three "persons" - the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. 

The Bible

The Presyterian faith goes beyond all denominational divisions and interpretations to the Bible.  Although recorded by man, we believe the writers of the bible were guided and inspired by God, and as such, the Bible is the divine Word of God.

Baptism and Communion

Presbyterians celebrate two sacraments - Baptism and Communion - as visible representations of God's invisible grace.  Baptism can occur at any age.  Believing parents can bring their child for Baptism and promise to raise their child to love and serve God.  The entire congregation promises to support the child.  Youth and adults can be baptised as part of their profession of faith if they were not baptised as a child. 

Communion, the breaking of bread and drinking of wine or grape juice, reminds us of Jesus.  Communion is thanksgiving and memorial of Christ's life and death.  Communion is looking forward to the return of Jesus Christ.  Communion is open to all who accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour.

Living Faith

Knox is a member congregation of The Presbyterian Church in Canada.  The Presbyterian Church in Canada has produced a document called "Living Faith" which expresses in ordinary, non-technical, language what it is that Canadian Presbyterian Christians believe.  We invite you to read and consider this statement of "our faith".  It is available for for download on the Presbyterian Church in Canada website here.
