Rules of Conduct

The Church and its members subscribe to the following Rules of Conduct:

RULES OF CONDUCT

  • Never come to the House of God without praying before coming (Matt.6:6; Eph. 6:18).
  • Be in your seat at the commencement of the service. You will thus be a good example to those that are late and neglectful (Gen. 22:3; Ps. 108:2; Prov. 8:17; Songs of Sol. 7:12).
  • Bring your children with you to the House of God. Relatives and House Helps also have souls. It is your duty and privilege to take care of them (Matt. 11:4; Exodus 20:10; Acts 10:24; John 1: 41-45; Gen. 18:19).
  • Make the Pastor your personal friend. His sympathy, support and counsel are needed by you. Constantly pray for him (1 Thess.2:7; Joel 2:17; Mal.2:7; Rom. 15:30; 2 Corin.1:11; Eph. 6:19; Heb. 13:17).
  • Make the Church your spiritual home (Acts 2: 46;47).
  • When conversing in your house and/or in all your conversations, never speak disrespectfully or criticizingly of God’s Servants or their ministrations in the presence of your children. If you sow to the wind, you may reap the whirlwind. (Gal. 6:7; Prov. 22:8; Hos. 8:7).
  • Take your Bible with you to the House of God (Ps. 1:2; 119:16, 72; Rom. 15:4; 1 Tim. 3:16,17).
  • Enter reverently; pray fervently; listen attentively; give praise from a grateful heart, and worship the Lord in the Beauty of Holiness (Ps:1 08:27 – 29; Eccl. 5:1; Rom. 12:11; James 1:19).
