The Social Principles

The Social Principles of The Methodist Church in Singapore

The Social Principles offer biblical and theological perspectives on important areas of life.  Rooted in the Wesleyan tradition, these principles guide us to practise good Christian social responsibility as we navigate various areas of influence. Our hope is that all Methodists, and Christians alike, will embrace these principles as we align our lives in accordance to God’s will, and contribute towards the common good. The Social Principles of MCS is a part of The Book of Discipline (2022).
