These questions and answers are NOT elements of any sort of creed. We have no man-made creeds or doctrines. God's Word, the Bible, is sufficient for salvation. Any additions or subtractions from God's word are strongly condemned in the Bible. The questions and answers listed below are some that people ask. This is not an attempt by this website to completely characterize our congregation of Christians.

Hebrews 11:4 “faith Abel offered“; vs 7 – “By faith Noah, …, moved” vs 8 – “By faith Abraham obeyed …and he went out”. vs 17 – “By faith Abraham, …, offered“; vs 27 – “By faith he (Moses) forsook Egypt…for he endured“;. vs 30 “By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they were encircled for seven days.” James 2:20-23 “But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead? Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offeed Isaac his son on the altar? Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect? And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, ‘Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.’ And he was called the friend of God.”
James 2:26 “For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.” Biblical faith demands obedient action.
