Affirms
Genesis 1:1-2 as creation account; God created all; hermeneutics on age varies
Non-denominational evangelical churches uniformly affirm that Genesis 1:1-2 is God's account of creation: God created all things. However, the hermeneutics of the creation account vary widely: some hold young-earth creationism, while others accept old-earth creationism or theistic evolution.
All agree that God is the Creator and that creation is not eternal or self-existent.
