Separation

---

We teach that separation from sin is clearly called for throughout the Old and New Testaments, and that the Scriptures clearly indicate that in the last days apostasy and worldliness shall increase (2 Co 6:14-7:1; 2 Ti 3:1-5)

 

We teach that out of deep gratitude for the underserved grace of God granted to us and because our glorious God is so worthy of our total consecration, all the saved should live in such a manner as to demonstrate our adoring love to God and so as not to bring reproach upon our Lord and Savior. We also teach that separation from any association with religious apostasy, and worldly and sinful practices is commanded of us by God (Ro 12:1, 2; 1 Co 5:9-13; 2 Co 6:14-7:1; 1 Jn 2:15-17; 2 jn 9-11).

 

We teach that believers should be separated unto our Lord Jesus Christ (2 Th 1:11, 12; Heb 12:1, 2) and affirm that the Christian life is a life of obedient righteousness demonstrated by a beatitude attitude (Mt 5:2-12) and a continual pursuit of holiness (Ro 12:1, 2; 2 Co 71; Heb 12:14; Tit 2:11-14; Tit 2:11-14; 1 Jn 3:1-10).
