  9. We believe that the Lord Jesus has instituted communion for all baptized, faithful followers as a remembrance of His suffering and death on the cross.
  10. We believe that believers in Christ need to serve one another with humility and love as was demonstrated by Jesus himself when He washed the feet of his disciples.

  12. We believe that the church has the obligation to keep pure the Body of Christ by disciplining those who have chosen to live in deliberate sin.
  13. We believe that the governments are ordained of God and as such need to be respected and obeyed except where they contradict the word of God.
  14. We believe that a Christian shall speak the truth at all times and therefore shall not swear by oath, but rather affirm.
  15. We believe that as Christians we shall not take revenge against our enemy or take up arms in defense of our country.

  17. We believe that everyone will be resurrected from the dead on the day of judgment.
