Church of Saturday Christians

About us

BELONGING TO CHRIST

We are ordinary people who want to imitate Jesus Christ in our daily lives, at work, at school, in church, and above all, outside its walls. We are not perfect, we are not free from problems and human weaknesses, but we believe that only Jesus Christ brings about a deep transformation of the heart, character, and life of a person.

SATURDAY IS A DAY OF REST

We believe that the holy day is Saturday. This is the day on which God Himself rested after completing the work of earthly creation. He blessed it and sanctified it (Genesis 2:2-3).

God placed in the Decalogue the commandment:

"Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God: In it you shall do no work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor any stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it." Exodus 20:8-11 NP

EXCLUSIVELY THE HOLY SCRIPTURE

We strive to refer to the patterns of the original apostolic Christianity, in faith and in life. We have adopted and try to live by simple, biblical principles of faith, based solely on the Holy Scriptures. We recognize them as the only authoritative source of God's revelation, the only measure of a righteous and pious life. We confess only those teachings and religious practices that are clearly indicated in the teachings of the Word of God and in the example of the first Christians. Any later changes that have occurred in the Christian church, along with Tradition, we consider a serious deviation from biblical teaching and do not accept them.

PRINCIPLES OF FAITH

SECOND COMING OF JESUS CHRIST

The foundation of the faith and hope of Christians is the glorious coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. It will be the greatest event of the future and the cause of the greatest joy for the Children of God. The promise of the second coming of the Lord Jesus was known and proclaimed even in the Old Testament. Christians associate all their eternal hopes with this event. At the moment of Jesus' coming, there will be resurrection, transformation, and the gathering of the righteous to the "House of the Father." The day of Jesus' coming is a mystery for all people. However, God calls for vigilance, careful observation of the signs of the times, and preparation for this great day. The coming of Jesus Christ will be a visible event. He will come in the Glory of the Father along with holy angels. This will be a tragic moment for some and a joyful one for others. In the coming of Jesus Christ, the eternal future of the righteous and the unrighteous will be finally determined. Texts: Mt 24:27-30, 32-36; John 14:1-3; Acts 1:10-11; 1 Cor 15:50-54; 1 Thess 4:16-17; Phil 3:20-21; Titus 2:11-14, Jude 14; Rev 22:12.

THE JUDGMENT OF GOD

According to God's Will and His just Law, a person who wishes to live eternally should adhere to the principles given by the Creator. Disobedience causes a person to be guilty of a transgression and subject to judgment. The wages of sin is death. God is an infallible Being, and thus His decisions made in judgment are infallible and just. All people must account for their lives. The Bible distinguishes several types of judgment. A person who wants to avoid the penalty of God's Judgment must follow God's Laws. The Judgment of the Gospel has particular significance for a person's salvation during the Age of Grace. Under this concept, we understand the opportunity given by God to accept or reject the Gospel. A person is the one who voluntarily judges themselves - either to eternal life or to condemnation. There is no deliverance from the sentence of condemnation at the Final Judgment. Texts: Deut 5:29; Matt 19:16-19; Rom 5:12; 6:23; Rev 19:1-3; Eccles 12:13-14; 2 Cor 5:10; John 5:24; Matt 25:31-45 

MAN

God created man good and perfect. As a result of sin, he became sinful and mortal. Man is spirit, soul, and body. Neither spirit, nor soul, nor body separately constitute personality and cannot consciously exist. The human soul is mortal. Immortality will be granted to man (by God's Grace through Jesus Christ and by submitting to God's Will) on the day of the resurrection of the righteous. The teachings about the "immortal soul," life after death, and purgatory are inconsistent with the Scriptures. The Scriptures warn people against invoking spirits and spiritualism. Texts: Gen 1:31; Lev 20:6,27; Deut 18:9-12; Job 7:8-10; Ps 146:4; Eccles 7:29; 9:5-6,10; Isa 8:19-20; Ezek 18:4; Matt 10:28; John 11:11; Rom 5:12; 6:23; 1 Thess 4:13-17; 5:23; 1 Tim 1:17; 6:16; 2 Tim 4:8

Marriage and family are institutions established by God. Marriage, as a monogamous, lifelong, and durable bond, is a close spiritual and physical community. Love and fidelity are the essential characteristics that determine the durability of marriage and family. A husband and wife love each other mutually, but the head of this union is the husband, while the wife shows submission to her husband. Marital separation may (but does not have to) occur due to adultery. The Holy Scripture warns against believers binding themselves to unbelievers. The primary purpose of marriage is mutual expression of love. Parents have the duty to provide comprehensive upbringing for their children, with particular emphasis on Christian values, which is reflected in teaching the principles of the Holy Scripture, especially obedience achieved through a prudent system of admonitions and punishments. Parents should also be mindful of their children's material needs. The value of a Christian family is also determined by children's obedience and the honor shown to parents throughout their lives. A marriage and family built on proper Christian principles become a strong support for the Church of God and a convincing testimony of faith. Texts: Genesis 2:19-23; Matthew 19:5-6; Proverbs 5:15-20; 19:18; 29:15; Ecclesiastes 9:9; Ephesians 5:22-23; 1 Corinthians 7:10-11; 1 Thessalonians 4:3-5; Deuteronomy 5:6-8; 6:6-7; Proverbs 1:8-9; 2 Corinthians 6:14-16; 1 Corinthians 11:3-16; 1 Timothy 5:4,14; Ephesians 6:1-4.

DAILY WITNESS OF FAITH

The mission of the Church of God is to bear witness to the Truth of God and Salvation in Jesus Christ. Every member of the congregation, as they receive the gifts of the Holy Spirit, feels a responsibility for a world that is heading towards destruction. This responsibility mainly manifests itself in engaging in the missionary work of the Church. Witnessing to the Truth and Salvation can take various forms: orally, through the Bible, missionary letters, church literature, and daily Christian living. Oral preaching involves establishing missionary contacts with people, maintaining communication with them, and inviting them to listen to the Word of God. We also proclaim by distributing the Holy Scriptures, sending missionary letters to interested individuals, and through church literature published for the conversion of people. An important aspect of bearing witness is leading a proper Christian life, through which many can come to know the Truth. For the testimony of words to be effective, it must be supported by the testimony of life. Texts: Mt 5:16; 24:24; PrSal 24:11; Acts 8:4; 1Cor 5:9; 2Cor 3:2; 5:11; Col 4:16; 2Tim 2:5,15; 1Peter 2:12; 2Peter 3:6

OUTWARD CHARACTERISTICS OF A CHRISTIAN

A Christian is visibly distinguished from their surroundings by many significant outward characteristics. Through their behavior and outward appearance, they present the highest degree of culture and biblical morality. Their characteristics include modesty, humility, balance, gentleness, goodness, and bodily purity. These traits are also manifested through speech, the ability to listen, visible patience, appropriate attire, hairstyles, and women covering their heads during prayer. A Christian strives for inner beauty, recognizes natural beauty, and opposes artificial enhancement. They are against associations and forms of entertainment that do not meet the high demands of Scripture and are saturated with indecency, impurity, and debauchery. Scripture recommends proper use of God's gifts such as contact with nature, sunlight, air, and water, engaging with good music, singing, and literature that builds us up, and participating in gatherings (agape) of the People of God. The Church advises its members to avoid everything that has even the appearance of evil. Texts: Eph 5:3-4; 1 Tim 2:8-9; 2 Tim 2:22; Titus 2:1-5; James 3:1-12; 1 Cor 6:9-10; 11:6, 14-15; 1 Thess 5:12-23; 1 Peter 3:1-5; 1 John 2:15-17

THE LORD'S DAY - SATURDAY

According to the fourth commandment of the holy Decalogue, the Lord's Day is the seventh day of the week - Saturday. It was established at the creation of the world and is its remembrance. God Himself rested on the seventh day, blessed it, and made it holy. Jesus confirmed the holiness of the Lord's Day, revealing its true significance and splendor by fulfilling the fourth commandment and His own statement that "the Sabbath was made for man." This truth was documented by His own daily life. True Children of God have kept Saturday as the Lord's Day for all ages. Omniscient God, foreseeing that this commandment would be frequently broken and eventually changed, endowed it with the significant word "REMEMBER"! This day was and is a sign between God and His People. The Lord's Day - Saturday - lasts from evening (sunset) on Friday to evening (sunset) on Saturday. Texts: Genesis 2:1-3; Exodus 16:14-30; 20:8-11; Leviticus 23:32; Isaiah 58:13-14; Luke 4:16-19; 23:50-56; Matthew 24:20; Mark 2:27-28; Hebrews 4:9 (BT); Acts 13:13-14, 42-44; 16:12-15; Revelation 1:10; James 2:10-12 

Obedience to God is a fundamental condition for harmonious and happy existence not only for humans but for the entire Universe. The cause of humanity's tragedies and failures lies in disobedience to God's Law. Disobedience is rebellion and sin against the Creator and leads to temporal and eternal ruin. Jesus Christ is the perfect example of obedience to God even unto death. He is "the author of eternal salvation" for all those who are obedient to Him. The Holy Scriptures present many examples of obedience and the resulting consequences. Without obedience, repentance and conversion, holy living, and salvation are impossible. No sacrifice made by humans can replace obedience. Texts: Genesis 26:5; 1 Samuel 15:22; Psalm 119:89-91; Romans 5:19; Philippians 2:5-9; Hebrews 5:5-9; 1 Peter 1:13-16.

THE GRACE OF GOD

All of God's actions towards humanity are based on grace. Grace is a sign of love shown to an unworthy being. It pities those who deserve wrath and punishment. The grace of God has been revealed in Jesus Christ for all people. A person without the grace of God is a sinful rebel against God's holy Law, as they live according to the desires of the flesh. The grace of God offers a person the forgiveness of sins, justification, reconciliation with God, salvation, and the power to live by faith. Thanks to the grace of God, a sinner can become a Child of God. The grace of God teaches the renunciation of all evil, the change of life, obedience, and zealous imitation of good deeds. A person who consciously rejects the grace of God closes the door to the Kingdom of God. Texts: Mt 18:21-27; John 1:12; Rom 3:22-23; Eph 1:3-4, 6-8; 2:8-10; Gal 5:19-21; Col 1:20-22; Tit 2:11-14; 3:7; Heb 10:26-31 

The Holy Spirit is the influence and Power of the Most High. It flows from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. The outpouring of the Holy Spirit occurred on the day of Pentecost. God and Christ, throughout all ages of human existence, have maintained and continue to maintain contact with people primarily through the Holy Spirit. God, through this Spirit, sustains and develops His Work, teaches His People, and delivers them from temptation. God seals His People with the Holy Spirit, which is why sinning against the Holy Spirit is sinning unto death. All the terms used in the Bible for the Holy Spirit—God's, Lord's, Christ's, Holy, Father's—refer to the same Spirit. God, through the Holy Spirit, sends great and saving gifts to the Church. These gifts serve to build up the Church of God. A believer is a dwelling for the Holy Spirit, and their Christianity is manifested through the "fruits of the Holy Spirit." A Christian who does not use the gifts of the Holy Spirit and does not bear "fruits of the Holy Spirit" does not grow spiritually and does not contribute to the building of the Church of God. Texts: Isaiah 63:7-14; Luke 24:49; John 14:16-17, 26; 15:26; 16:7-13; Acts 1:8; 2:1-4; Romans 8:9; 12; 1 Corinthians 2:12; 12; 2 Corinthians 3:17-18; Ephesians 1:13; 4:7, 14, 30; Galatians 5:22-23; 2 Peter 1:21; 1 Thessalonians 4:8; 5:19.

BIBLE-FATHER HEAVENLY

The Only Supreme God and Lord of All Creation. The Father of Lord Jesus Christ and humanity. The Creator of all beings in heaven and on earth. He is a Spiritual Being. God the Father is revealed in the Holy Scripture, and His Power and Greatness are also evident in the works of nature and in human consciences. He will be fully known only by the saved in eternity. God has forbidden the making of His likeness in any form. He is an Omniscient Being, full of love and justice. Texts: Genesis 1:1; 1 Samuel 2:3 (BT); Isaiah 40:26; Matthew 6:9; John 3:16; 4:24; 20:17; Acts 17:24-31; Romans 1:20; 1 Corinthians 13:12-13; 1 Timothy 1:17; Ephesians 4:6; 1 John 4:8

HUMAN FREEDOM, MILITARY SERVICE, AND RESPECT FOR AUTHORITY

God has endowed every human being with free will. This results in the fundamental, personal right to freedom of conscience and religion, as the foundation for the functioning of any free society. A Christian should show love and strive for the salvation of all humanity. This includes enemies as well, and therefore a Child of God will not engage in military service or acts of war. A Christian is a free person, but under the guise of freedom, one cannot condone or commit evil. Everyone has the right to live according to their conscience. From this fundamental rule arises the personal responsibility of man before God. All people, in relation to God and the People of God, are equal regardless of social and national origin. Secular authority comes from God. Its purpose should always be to defend the personal, religious, social, and civil rights of people, to maintain order, and to care for the whole society. The Holy Scripture commands respect for secular authority, taking into account the principle "we must obey God rather than men" (Acts 4:19; 5:29), from which arises honor, respect, obedience, fear, financial contributions, and prayers for our peaceful life. Texts: Deut 10:17; 30:19; Dan 2:20-22; Mt 22:21; Acts 4:19, 5:29; Rom 12:1-2; 13:1-4; 1 Cor 2:12

Hope is joyful expectation of desired good, anticipating, trust, and encouragement; it is a certain kind of certainty about something that is to be the share of a person. One of the three fundamental values of Christian life is God's hope. It pertains to two realities: the present and the future. We speak of present hope when we place our current lives in the hands of the Lord, with trust that He will guide us. We speak of future hope when we joyfully, patiently, and confidently expect the fulfillment of God's blessed promises. It enables us to have a perfect, lasting, and continuous communion with God, Jesus Christ, and the People of God in one Spiritual Church. God's hope is the only important and fundamental value for the life of the People of God. Without it, despite having various human hopes, a person's life is worthless to God—man lives without hope. Texts: Romans 8:24-25; Ephesians 4:4; Romans 5:5; Psalm 14:7; 1 Corinthians 15:19; Colossians 1:5; Ephesians 2:12.

The House of God

The House of God was, is, and will be the only center of Divine Service. In the Old Testament, the material House of God was a place for people to meet God. It consisted of the holy place and the most holy place. It was referred to by various names: "the tabernacle and the tent of meeting," "the tent of testimony," "the church," "the House of God." The Divine Service in this temple primarily involved the offering of sacrifices. This temple and its service were imperfect and were a symbol and image of the Spiritual Temple and its service. At the moment of Jesus Christ's death, the Old Testament temple lost its significance. A new Spiritual Temple arose, built by the Lord Himself. This new Spiritual Temple, called the Heavenly Temple, was formed by the joining of God's family on earth with the Heavenly family in Christ. In this Temple, the perfect, saving Divine Service takes place. The only High Priest of the Heavenly Temple is Jesus Christ, who is also the Rock, the Cornerstone, the Foundation, the Servant, and the Lord in this Temple. This service consists of proclaiming the Word of Salvation and Reconciliation, the universal priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices, and administering God's goods and graces. The People of God, seeing that they are the House of God, take care of its purity and holiness. Texts: Exodus 25:8; Numbers 9:15; Acts 7:44, 47-48; Matthew 27:51; 1 Timothy 3:15; Hebrews 8:1-2; Zechariah 6:12-13; 1 Peter 2:5-9; Ephesians 2:6, 19-22; John 2:19-22; 14:23; 1 Corinthians 3:16-17; Ephesians 5:27; Hebrews 3:6 (BG); John 15:19; 17:14; Ephesians 1:10; Hebrews 12:22-24; Ephesians 3:14-15.

BIBLICAL RITES

The external confession of faith is baptism by complete immersion. It may occur at the age of full mental maturity. The Church of God performs baptism at the clear, direct command of Jesus Christ. Baptism must be preceded by repentance, conversion, faith, and a fervent desire. Then it is a sign of burying the former life, the forgiveness of sins, and rising to new life in God. After baptism, the elders of the Church perform the Biblical laying on of hands, which is usually associated with being filled with the Holy Spirit. Due to the great need for the influence of the Holy Spirit for the Church to live and grow, the laying on of hands on newly baptized individuals is of great significance. Laying on of hands can also have other meanings. We distinguish laying on of hands for healing, for blessing, and for dedication in the Lord's work, e.g., as a deacon. The second laying on of hands also aims at the ordination of elders of the congregation, and bishops according to biblical guidelines. At the request of parents, their children are blessed through the laying on of hands, which also serves the growth of the congregation. Another important rite in the Christian life is the Lord's Supper (breaking of bread), preceded by the rite of humility - washing of feet. The Lord's Supper is a memorial of the death and shedding of the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. The bread is a symbol of the body, and the wine is a symbol of the blood. To participate in the Lord's Supper, a child of God must approach it worthily, with a clear conscience before God and people. In the Holy Scriptures, we also see the rite of anointing a sick person with oil (at their request) along with prayer for their healing. Christian women observe the biblical custom of covering their heads for prayer and prophesying. The Church also practices, at the personal request of newlyweds, a wedding blessing. The Church also provides personal assistance by organizing funerals for its members and friends, comforting the families of the deceased with the Word of God. Texts: Mt 28:19-20; Mk 16:16; Acts 2:38-39; Heb 6:1-3; Acts 8:14-17; 9:17; 13:2-3; 2 Tim 1:6-7; Mk 16:17-18; Mt 19:13-15; Gen 48:13-14; Mt 26:26-29; 1 Cor 11:23-29; John 13:3-17; James 5:14-15; 1 Cor 11:1-16

Prayer is a direct and reliable connection with God. According to the command of the Holy Scriptures, the Church of God needs persistent and humble prayer as the greatest inner need of God's children. The Church and every member of the Church prays in the Name of Jesus Christ. The effect of prayer depends on faith, patience, obedience, and the Will of God. We distinguish the following types of prayer: praise, thanksgiving, petitions and pleas, penitential, public in assembly, and personal. We pray in all circumstances of life and at all times of the day, for example, in worship services, greetings, farewells, meals, during illness, sadness, in danger, in missionary work, morning and evening. God's people pray in various places, such as in assembly halls, in private homes, in nature, and while traveling. In special circumstances, the Word of God recommends prayer combined with fasting. A child of God should be internally (spiritually) properly disposed to prayer. We acknowledge all biblical forms of prayer. Texts: Psalm 28:9; Matthew 6:6; 26:41; Luke 1:10; 18:1; John 14:13; Acts 1:14; 20:36; 28:8; Romans 15:30; Ephesians 5:20; Colossians 1:3; 1 Thessalonians 5:17-18; 1 Timothy 2:1; Hebrews 10:25; James 5:13-16.

CONVERSION

Conversion - also called being born again - is a deep and complete transformation that God brings about in the heart and life of a person. It is a one-time act, a turning point for human life. It is preceded by a longer or shorter period of preparation. This transformation is accomplished by God through the Holy Spirit, with the conscious and voluntary participation of the person. It is the result of God's Grace. Conversion involves a total change in the previous way of thinking, speaking, and acting. It encompasses the whole person, his spirit, soul, and body. An essential sign of conversion is repentance and the confession of sins, as well as the decision to lead a just life in accordance with God's Will. The external sign of conversion is baptism. A converted person, striving for the perfection and holiness of their Christian life, must daily overcome sin. The Bible refers to this as "being renewed day by day." Texts: Isa 55:7; Joel 2:12-13; John 3:1-6; Acts 2:38; 2 Cor 4:16; 7:10; Eph 4:13-15, 22-33; 1 John 1:9 

The basis for just governance on earth is just laws. The first Legislator is God. His will has been expressed in commandments, regulations, and laws that govern the relationship between man and God and between man and his neighbor. The Divine Law, which is the fundamental rule of life for the believer, is holy, just, and good at all times. The biblical term "Divine Law" (Law-Torah, Nomos) refers to both the moral Divine Law (mainly the Decalogue - Ten Commandments) and the Ceremonial Law. The law is, in its essence, unchanging. By dying on the cross as the perfect Sacrifice, Jesus Christ fulfilled the symbolic Ceremonial Law, while the Moral Law remained the fundamental rule of life and piety for Christians. The Moral Law includes: Two Commandments of Love (for God and for man), the Ten Commandments (Decalogue), and other commandments concerning morality. The Moral Law has no power to justify, but the believer recognizes sin through it, feels the need for repentance, the great need for grace, and by observing it gives proof of obedience to God and love for Him. Throughout the history of humanity, the Divine Law has been and continues to be the target of particular hatred and attacks from Satan, his followers, and servants. Satan (also called the devil) is an adversary of God and God’s People. He is a tempter, capable of transforming himself into an angel of light; from the very beginning, he was a murderer and a liar. God's people must resist him. In the end, he will be destroyed in the "lake of fire." Texts: Ps 111; 19:8-9; Exod 20:1-17; Heb 7:15-19; 9:1-10, 10:1-20; Mt 5:17-19, 21-22, 27-28; 13:38-39; 19:16-19; Rom 7:7, 12; Jas 2:10-12, 4:7; 1 John 2:3-7, 3:4; Eph 2:14-15, 6:11; Col 2:13-17; 1 Cor 7:19; 2 Cor 11:14; 1 Peter 5:8; John 8:44; Rev 12:9, 17; 14:12; 20:2, 10.

Faith is the certainty of what is hoped for, the conviction of the reality of what is not seen. Faith is a great privilege of the Children of God, a fundamental condition for coming to God, justification, and pleasing God. The disbelief of the world and false teachings strike and challenge the faith of the Child of God. The victor in this trial is the Christian whose faith is based on the unshakeable foundation of the infallible Word of God. Truly perfect faith of the Children of God must be alive, that is, effective through love, manifesting itself in the observance of God's Law and in good deeds—it must grow and develop through: the Word of God, prayer, and experiences, through active service in the Church. In the last days, some will fall away from faith; their delight in the world will be their ruin. Texts: Heb 11; 12:2; 10:22; 1Cor 2:5; 13:13; 1John 5:4; Gal 5:6; 1Tim 3:9; 4:3-1; 1Peter 1:3-9; James 2:19-29; Luke 17:5; Rom 10:17.

God's Love

Love is an essential characteristic of God's nature, it is the knowledge of God, and the foundation of God's Plan of Salvation. It is the greatest commandment, hence the biblical way of life now and forever (in earthly life and in eternity) is and will be based on the principle of divine love. A proof of love for God is, among other things, love for one's neighbor. From this arises the principle of equality and freedom for all people, regardless of social or national origin. An example of God's Love for humanity is the life, service, and sacrifice of the Son of God. By following Jesus Christ, believers understand that God's Love is action and service for the good of others. Love is the distinguishing mark of the disciples of Jesus Christ, it summarizes God's Law (the Torah), and it also includes strangers and enemies. Texts: Mt 5:43-48; 22:34-40; John 3:16; 13:35; 15:12; Acts 17:26; Romans 13:8-10; 1 Corinthians 13:4-8; Galatians 3:28; 1 John 4:8-10

JESUS CHRIST

Jesus Christ is the Only Begotten Son of God and the Savior of the World. Through Him and for Him, God created all things. He is a Spiritual Being - begotten by the Father, inheriting the Divine Nature, and therefore is called God. He is subordinate to the Father, to whom He will always be subjected. By the Will of the Father, He came in the form of a man to earth, to atone for God's Justice with His Sacrifice, to redeem people from eternal death, and to reconcile man with God - the Father. After the resurrection, He sat at the right hand of the Father, assuming royal authority. He serves the Church of God (Spiritual Temple) as the High Priest according to the order of Melchizedek. Texts: John 1:1-3; 3:16,18; 20:17, Hebrews 1:3,8-9; 4:14-16; 8:12; Romans 6:23; 5:10-11; 1 Corinthians 15:28; Colossians 1:15-16; 1 Peter 2:24; Matthew 28:18; Daniel 7:13 

WHAT WE BELIEVE

The Holy Scripture is a collection of 66 books. It consists of the Old and New Testaments. The Old Testament (39 books) covers the history of humanity, particularly Israel, and the teachings given to the people of God before the birth of Jesus Christ. The New Testament (27 books) presents the history of Jesus Christ and the Apostles, as well as God's redemptive message for humanity. The books of the Holy Scripture were written by holy men of God under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and therefore the Holy Scripture is sufficient to know God, His Will, and to obtain salvation by grace. Treating human traditions and other books as sources of faith is erroneous and harmful to salvation. We regard apocryphal books as non-canonical but as historical. Texts: 2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20; Galatians 1:11; Hebrews 1:1-2; 2 Samuel 23:1-2; Matthew 24:35; Revelation 22:18-19.

The best "Principle of Faith" is undoubtedly the Holy Scripture, which can be treated as a letter written by a human hand but under Divine Inspiration. However, since the volume of the Bible is extensive and it takes a lot of time to read it, we have decided to provide a brief summary of our beliefs based on biblical texts. These few sentences of each point are somewhat the essence of what we profess. Each point is substantiated by several passages from the Holy Scripture. (Isaiah 43:5-7; Ephesians 3:14-15; Acts 20:28; 1 Corinthians 1:2; 11:22; 15:9; 2 Corinthians 1:1; 1 Timothy 3:15).

Our heartfelt wish is that every Christian, upon becoming acquainted with the content of the "Principles of Faith," can analyze and examine them carefully. We also wish to encourage everyone not to stop at merely reading them but to begin a systematic study of the entire Holy Scripture. The Bible should become the daily reading of every Christian because the teachings contained within it motivate one to lead a moral, and consequently, a Christian life. The "Principles of Faith" provided to you are brief written statements that the Church believes and accepts as consistent with the Holy Scripture. We state that if we gain a better understanding, we are ready to correct, change, or supplement them. The only thing that never changes is the Holy Scripture.
