ST. THOMAS EVANGELICAL CHURCH OF INDIA St. Thomas Evangelical Church of India (STECI) is an evangelical, episcopal, missionary church with headquarters in Kerala, India. It was formed in 1961 as a result of a reformation movement in the Mar Thoma Church and traces its ancestry almost back 2000 years to the tradition of Apostle Thomas. STECI firmly affirms that the Bible is the inspired, inerrant and infallible word of God and all that is necessary for human salvation and living in holiness and righteousness is given in the Bible. This Church believes in the personal return of Lord Jesus Christ with glory to judge both the living and the dead and in the final establishment of the kingdom of God in its fullness. STECI believes in the bodily resurrection of the dead – the just will rise to life and the unjust will rise to be condemned.
