Knowing God through His Word
Statement of Faith
Worship
Worship by Christians takes place in the congregation, in families, and in individual devotions.
All practices which are not found in Biblical worship should not be part of Christian worship.
Congregational worship in the New Testament and the early church included reading, teaching, and discussing God’s word; praying and singing praise to God; and observing the Lord’s Supper.
Congregational worship in the Bible included all God’s people, believers and their children.
There is no Biblical warrant for dividing the congregation into gender, age, racial, or social groups for worship.
It is especially important for families to be together in congregational worship so that they can discuss the teaching of the Word at home.
The family should worship in the home. The head of the household should lead his wife and children in Bible study.
It is one task of the Elders in the church to equip the men of the congregation to be spiritual teachers in their families.
Individual Bible study should be a daily part of every Christian’s life.
