Most all churches who claim to be evangelical would agree with these foundational principles. Beyond such basics, however, not all evangelicals are agreed on theology and practice. Beyond agreeing to basic evangelical doctrines, such precise beliefs appear to be of less importance than in earlier times. In the practice of corporate worship there is likewise plenty of variety. Worship styles range from formal and liturgical to open and informal.
Music styles range from hymns with organ accompaniment to worship songs with praise bands.
And there are a variety of views with respect to lifestyle issues, although there is agreement on some generally accepted guidelines such as Bible reading, prayer, church attendance, and a strict avoidance of such behaviour as sexual immorality, lying and cheating. But on some ethical issues there is not an evangelical consensus. Perhaps this is due, in part at least, to the fact that contemporary Christians have frequently rejected what they saw as legalism and narrowness in the lifestyles of previous generations. While there remains a desire to live a godly, disciplined life, the emphasis today is more on the love of God and how that transforms lives. According to our Confession of Faith , we are definitely evangelical.
