The doctrinal standards of the BTCI Conference are set forth in its Articles of Incorporation in the Constitution of the M.C.C.A. and that of the British Methodist Church.

The Methodist Church claims and cherishes its place in the Holy Catholic Church which is the Body of Christ. It rejoices in the inheritance of the Apostolic Faith and loyally accepts the fundamental principles of the historic creeds and of the Protestant Reformation. It ever remembers that in the Providence of God Methodism was raised up to spread Scriptural Holiness through the land by the proclamation of the Evangelical Faith and declares its unfaltering resolve to be true to its Divinely appointed mission. The Doctrines of the Evangelical faith which Methodism has held from the beginning and still holds are based upon the Divine revelation recorded in the Holy Scriptures. The Methodist Church acknowledges this revelation as the supreme rule of faith and practice. These Evangelical Doctrines to which the Preachers of the Methodist Church both Ministers and Lay persons are pledged are contained in Reverend Wesley's Notes on the New Testament and the First four volumes of the sermons.

It is the universal conviction of the Methodist people that the office of the Christian Ministry depends upon the call of God who bestows the gifts of the Spirit, the grace and the fruit which indicate those whom He has chosen. Those whom the Methodist Church recognizes as called by God and therefore receives into its Ministry shall be ordained by the imposition of hands as expressive of the Church's recognition of the Minister's personal call. The Methodist Church holds the doctrine of the priesthood of all believers and consequently believes that no priesthood exists which belongs exclusively to a particular order or class of persons, but in the exercise of its corporate life and worship, special qualifications for the discharge of special duties are required and thus the principle of representative selection is recognized. The preachers, itinerant and lay, are examined, tested and approved before they are authorized to minister in holy things. For the sake of Church Order and not because of any priestly virtue inherent in the office, the Ministers of the Methodist Church are set apart by ordination of the Ministry of the Word and Sacraments.

The Methodist Church recognizes two sacraments, namely Baptism and the Lord's Supper, as of Divine Appointment and of perpetual obligation of which it is the privilege and duty of members of the Methodist Church to avail themselves.

The doctrinal standards are unalterable.
