The Local Church

Modified on Mon, 16 Sep at 8:51 PM

We believe that a truly scriptural local church is a congregation of born-again believers who, according to scriptures, have been baptized by immersion, who voluntarily fellowship together for the purpose of edifying one another and preaching the gospel, observing the ordinances of Christ, governed by His Word, being otherwise entirely self-governing and self- supporting, completely free from the hierarchy of individuals and organizations, acknowledging the only one head, the Lord Jesus Christ, and being free to co-operate and associate, or withhold from co-operation and association, with other similarly scriptural local churches as it may see fit.
