Separation
We
believe in the Biblical doctrine of separation which
encompasses the following:
 |
Separation of the local church from all affiliations,
fellowships, and conventions with those who deny the
Christian faith |
 |
Separation
of the individual believer from all worldly
practices that would dishonor the Savior |
 |
The church
should refuse to be drawn into compromising
alliances, even with well-meaning evangelical people
whereby our testimony would be impaired and our
position confused |
 |
We reject
the concept that our church should co-operate with
unbelievers and apostate churches even if by so
co-operating beneficial results may seem produced |
