The PAOC Statement of Essential Truths – A Commentary

Monday March 6, 2023, 09:45 AM

On behalf of the Theological Study Commission, we are pleased to announce the release of Essential Truths: The PAOC Statement of Essential Truths Commentary.

The recently adopted Statement of Essential Truths (SOET) is one outcome of a greater initiative to encourage theological vitality within our Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada family. This resource will complement the SOET and be useful for the purposes of membership, credentialing, and discipleship. In all that we do with these materials, I pray the primary goal will be for the truth to transform us to be more like our Lord—personally and as the people of God. Together, as a movement of disciplined followers of Jesus, we will do our best to present ourselves to God as those approved, workers who do not need to be ashamed, and who correctly handle the word of truth (2 Timothy 2:15).

We desire that Essential Truths would be a valuable addition to the personal reading and study resources of many within our constituency. Our credentialed leaders have been gifted with a hard copy, but additional orders are encouraged for church boards and ministry teams.

Please call our office at 905-542-7400 or toll-free at at 1-800-779-7262, or email orderdesk@paoc.org to place your orders. Copies are priced at $10 each, and $8 each for orders of 10 or more (plus shipping).

At our recent Annual General Meeting on March 21, 2023, Van Johnson hosted a session on behalf of the Theological Study Commission which reviews the content in Essential Truths. Click here for more details: https://paoc.org/events/annual-general-meeting-2023.
