I believe that a human life begins at the moment of conception. — Genesis 1; 2; Colossians 1:16-17; John 1:3; Psalm 139:13. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847833743-F4ZNTSBG6SV6QOKKH98U/image-asset.jpeg Doctrinal Statement - I believe that man was created in the image and likeness of God, under the law of his Maker. Adam fell from his innocent state by voluntary transgression, and all mankind sinned in him, in consequence of which all men are totally depraved, are partakers of Adam’s fallen nature, and are sinners by nature and by conduct, and therefore are under just condemnation without defense or excuse. I accept God’s definitions of sin as contained in the Bible as literally interpreted to include all forms of sexual conduct outside the confines of a marriage between one man and one woman. — Genesis 3:1-6; Romans 3:10-19; 5:12, 19; 1:18, 32 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847833743-F4ZNTSBG6SV6QOKKH98U/image-asset.jpeg Doctrinal Statement - I believe that believers are to separate themselves to God from sin. I believe that God commands Biblical churches to keep separate from churches which believe and practice heresy. — 2 Corinthians 6:14-7: 1; 1 Thessalonians 1:9-10; 1 Timothy 6:3-5; Romans 16:17; 2 John 9-11. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847833743-F4ZNTSBG6SV6QOKKH98U/image-asset.jpeg Doctrinal Statement - I believe that civil government is of Divine appointment for the interests and good order of human society; that governmental officials are to be prayed for, honored, and obeyed, except in those things opposed to the will of the Lord Jesus Christ. — Romans 13:1-7; 2 Samuel 23:3; Exodus 18:21-22; Acts 23:5; Matthew 22:21; Acts 5:29; 4:19-20; Daniel 3:17-18. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847833743-F4ZNTSBG6SV6QOKKH98U/image-asset.jpeg Doctrinal Statement - I believe in the sovereign selection of Israel as God's eternal covenant people, that she is now dispersed because of her disobedience and rejection of Christ, and that she will be re-gathered in the Holy Land and, after the completion of the Church age, will be saved as a nation at the second advent of Christ. — Genesis 13:14-17; Romans 11:1-32; Ezekiel 37. https://www.parakleteministry.com/resources daily 0.75 2026-06-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/f5be000f-883d-4b52-8322-13ce5108db47/imgg-demo-nLRbokBp.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/6d6ce9d6-acc5-4337-84fa-c8c6a18cbbd7/imgg-demo-dr4UJ5bT.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/d0c64311-b23a-4075-a6bb-08ec13a3bc11/imgg-demo-nD6Pzw4T.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68224fac1d4201262e7734b1/5e330191-ed70-4e03-8fff-847605d8520a/book+cover.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68224fac1d4201262e7734b1/571c5991-d96e-41d7-b5ad-7b3f897806b1/book+cover+Back.png https://www.parakleteministry.com/ministries daily 0.75 2026-06-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/d0c64311-b23a-4075-a6bb-08ec13a3bc11/imgg-demo-nD6Pzw4T.jpg Ministries https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68224fac1d4201262e7734b1/c493bc91-f6a2-40b5-bda6-c2a6dfc7a066/with+African+church+leaders.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68224fac1d4201262e7734b1/fa9fdc58-f152-4ba3-ae56-d92c46b08f8b/preaching+to+missionaries+in+Africa.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68224fac1d4201262e7734b1/27223395-9ab5-4b82-98bd-a0eb50f65f8d/preaching+at+a+church+in+Africa.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68224fac1d4201262e7734b1/158940f9-2f87-43f0-89d9-95d388fcc4a1/recognizing+people.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68224fac1d4201262e7734b1/5520a5f2-4482-4ed7-8edf-ad8ba234ef83/preaching+to+the+missionaries+in+africa.JPG
