DOCTRINES 3
DICTATE
DEEDS”

Pastor Randy Shupe

What we believe is important.
What we do flows out of
what we believe.

The world in which we live is becoming more and more
rooted in paganism and humanism. These two maladies
that plague society flow out of what people hold dear as
factual beliefs.

However, only the sacred Scriptures can declare what is
right and wrong. For instance, today’s society readily
condones homosexuality as an acceptable alternative
lifestyle, but the Scriptures clearly call it sin in God’s
sight (Rom.1:26-27). Regardless, the world without Christ
will continue to practice what it believes to be acceptable
behavior, but the people of God must walk by a different
standard, namely, the written Word of God.

Primarily the Word of God was given to the people of
God so that they may know what is right and wrong.
What we believe is to dictate our deeds as followers of
Christ. The world divorced from Christ will continue to
see it differently, because it lies totally under the sway
of the Wicked One ( 1 Jn. 5:19) .

This little booklet is a statement of beliefs that we hold as
vital truths to guide the believer in Christ in paths of truth.
