However, through the fall, sin entered the world and man disobeyed God's ideal for marriage. With the curse came the potential for divorce to occur. God permits divorce and remarriage, after all efforts of reconciliation have failed and restoration is impossible, on the grounds of adultery, desertion by an unbeliever, or divorce prior to salvation. He never commands or demands divorce. Abortion constitutes the unjustified, unexcused taking of unborn human life.
Abortion is murder.
We believe that Christians are prohibited from bringing civil lawsuits against other Christians or the Church to resolve personal disputes. We believe the Church possesses all the resources necessary to resolve personal disputes between members. The Statement of Faith does not exhaust the extent of our faith. The Bible itself is the sole and final source of all that we believe. We do believe, however, that the foregoing Statement of Faith accurately represents the teaching of the Bible, and therefore, is binding upon all members.
