Scandinavian Evangelical Bodies
Scandinavian Evangelical Bodies
A movement in the United States to break away from the State Churches in Sweden, Norway, and Denmark. Three bodies have been organized:
Swedish Evangelical Mission Covenant
Swedish Evangelical Free Church
Norwegian-Danish Evangelical Free Church Association of North America
In doctrine the Covenant is strictly evangelical, accepting the Bible as the inspired Word of God unto men, the only infallible guide in matters of faith, doctrine, and practise, and His message regarding both this life and the life that is to come. The churches are congregational in government.
