ALL ALL: • To be thoughtful and courteous to one another, to be slow to take offense, and to be quick to forgive and seek forgiveness; • To guard the purity, peace, and prosperity of church, through the guidance of the Scripture, and to support its testimony as a witness to the saving grace of God and Christ Jesus;
ALL ALL: • To assist, through the gifts of the Spirit, in the work of the church and to support its testimony as a witness to the saving grace of God and Christ Jesus; • To contribute, as the Lord directs, to the financial support of the church, the relief of the needy, and the evangelism of all people;
ALL ALL: • To love and to pray for all believers in the Lord Jesus Christ; • To engage regularly in personal Bible reading and prayer, and to establish family devotions where possible;
ALL ALL: • To uphold the chasity of the unmarried and the sanctity of marriage between one man and one woman; • To uphold the sanctity of life, from conception to death, as the unique image- bearers of God;
ALL ALL: • To bring up such children as may be entrusted to our care in the nurture and admonition of the Lord; • To live with honesty and humility in the world, demonstrating God’s kindness to all, to be faithful in engagements, exemplary in conduct, and denying ungodliness and sinful desires;
