Paragraph 25.3
Of the Westminster Confession of Faith (1646)
Unto this Catholic Visible Church, Christ has given the Ministry, Oracles, and Ordinances of God, for the gathering, and perfecting of the Saints, in this life, to the end of the World: and does by his own presence and Spirit, according to his promise, make them effectual thereunto.1

26.2
All Persons, throughout the World, professing the Faith of the Gospel, and Obedience unto God by Christ, according unto it, not destroying their own Profession by any Errors, everting the foundation, or unholiness of Conversation, are and may be called visible Saints;1 and of such ought all particular Congregations to be constituted.2
