Our Beliefs

What We Believe

 

As the children of God, we understand that we submit ourselves into complete dependence upon Him, God our savior.  In doing so we recognize that we also submit ourselves to His good governance.  Our desire is to follow Him; no longer do we desire to control our own destinies, our own will is put off in order to follow His will, we are led by God and God alone forever.  Plainly stated, we are governed by the Word of God.

To give durability to this belief, we, as a church, have drawn up biblically-based directives for our lives.  We have these documents posted here on our website. Our Statement of Faith outlines from the Bible a summary of what we believe. Our Covenant traces from the Word a picture of how we agree to live. Our Constitution draws from Scripture as best we can practical guidelines for church governance. These documents, taken together, abbreviate the Biblical doctrines that shape the life and ministry of RHBC.
