Our Beliefs and Practices

In 1978 the co-workers in the local churches published a booklet entitled The Beliefs and Practices of the Local Churches. This booklet is reproduced on this site in its entirety. Please refer to the booklet's Table of Contents on the left menu.

Our Hope

  • The local churches hope that as many as are ordained by God to eternal life will believe in the Lord Jesus.
     
  • The local churches hope that all regenerated Christians will seek the growth in life, not the mere increase of knowledge.
     
  • The local churches hope that all seeking Christians will see the vision of the church and come into the practical church life in their locality.
     
  • The local churches hope that the Lord will have a remnant of overcomers that His Bride may be prepared.
     
  • The local churches hope that the coming back of the Lord will be hastened by our growth and that we may participate in the blessed rapture and in His coming kingdom.
