Promise Keepers Statement of Faith
(Used by permission)
- We believe that there is one God, eternally existing in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
- We believe that the Bible is God's written revelation to man, and that it is verbally inspired, authoritative, and without error in the original manuscripts.
- We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, sinless life, miracle, death on the cross to provide for out redemption, bodily resurrection, and ascension into heaven, present ministry of intercession for us, and His return to earth in power and glory.
- We believe in the personality and deity of the Holy Spirit, that He performs the miracle of the new birth in an unbeliever and indwells believers, enabling them to live a godly life.
- We believe that man was created in the image of God, but because of sin, was alienated from God. That alienation can be removed only by accepting through faith God's gift of salvation which was made possible by Christ's death.(1994 Promise Keepers Ambassadors: Answering Doctrinal and Denominational Questions and Challenges)

Revised. 1997. We believe that man was created in the image of God, but because of sin, was alienated from God. Only through faith, trusting in Christ alone for salvation which was made possible by His death and resurrection, can that alienation be removed.
The Seven Promises of a Promise Keeper

Promise Keepers (PK) calls men from all backgrounds to reconcile and to take responsibility in their relationships with God, their families, and people of varying races. PK's focus on commitment is based in the promise-keeping nature of God. Because He is faithful to fulfill all of His promises, He is the model for men to keep their promises. The following encapsulates PK's values as an organization.
