We believe Jesus’ words take priority, when Scripture is interpreted or debated.
“Heaven and Earth shall pass away,
but my words shall not pass away”
— Matthew 24:35
We teach that the path to life is narrow and requires repentance, obedience, and perseverance.
“But small is the gate and narrow the way
that leads to life, and only a few find it”
— Matthew 7:14
We reject the idea that belief without obedience saves. Salvation includes:
Following God’s commandments
Receiving and walking in the Holy Spirit
Producing good works as Jesus taught
“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’
will enter the kingdom of Heaven,
but only he who does the will
of My Father in Heaven”
— Matthew 7:21
We seek the spiritual intent of Jesus’ teaching rather than interpretations shaped by culture, power, or comfort.
“The Spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing.
The words I have spoken to you
are spirit and they are life”
— John 6:63
We affirm the equal value and calling of all people and reject hierarchies that contradict Jesus’ teaching on humility and servanthood.
“Whosoever will be great among you,
let him be your servant”
— Matthew 20:26
