- We
accept that all believers are one under God, regardless of their denominational background.
- We live as if Christian character and
conduct matter.
- We believe that reading and studying the Bible fosters inner unity and outer strength.
- We believe that every Christian
person possesses full liberty of conscience in interpreting the Gospel.
- We believe that every sincere conviction that exalts Jesus
Christ is honorable.
