Greetings from the ANNOUNCEMENTS! Rev. Vicky Hilliard will be speaking this Sunday, encapsulating highlights from her Forgiveness workshop last month. Dr. Louis Gates and Rev. Mary Rose are being scheduled. Please watch our newsletter and calendar pages for details. ARTICLES OF FAITH WE BELIEVE in God, the eternal Father and His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Spirit. WE BELIEVE that men will be responsible for their own sins and not for Adam’s transgressions. WE BELIEVE in the phenomena of nature, both physical and spiritual, and the expression of Infinite Intelligence. WE BELIEVE that man must be called of God by “prophecy and by laying on of hands” by those in authority to preach the Gospel and administer in the ordinances thereof. WE BELIEVE in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, vision, healing, interpretation of tongues, etc. WE BELIEVE the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly. WE BELIEVE all that God has revealed, all that He now reveals and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God. WE AFFIRM that the existence and personal identity of the individual continues after the changes called death, communications with the so-called dead is a fact scientifically proven by the phenomenon of Spiritualism. WE AFFIRM the moral responsibility of the individual and that he makes his own happiness or unhappiness as he obeys or disobeys Natures Physical and Spiritual Laws. WE CLAIM the privilege of worshiping the Almighty God according to the dictates of our conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship, how, where or what they may. The doorway to reformation is never closed against any human soul, here or hereafter. WE BELIEVE in being subject to presidents, kings, rulers and magistrates, in obeying, honoring and sustaining the law. WE BELIEVE honest, true, chaste, benevolent, and virtuous in doing good to all men. Indeed we may say that we follow the admonitions of Paul:
