Our Church: Old Path's Bible Church


Old Paths Bible Church



On the day of Pentecost a new institution came into being: the church of Jesus Christ. The transition from the old covenant to a new covenant had thus been completed.

 The church is God’s vehicle, designed by Him to save, heal, instruct and preserve God’s people and carry them to the first resurrection.

 

The Old Paths Bible Church is simply a

small part of the body of Christ, a group of people committed to pure and primitive Christianity. We are not denominationally affiliated. We consider ourselves “Christians” as

we aspire to be IN CHRIST, and pray for the unity of believers in truth, in doctrine, in holiness, in the power of the Spirit, and in love. We preach the only saving gospel of the death, burial,

resurrection, and revelation of Jesus Christ:  As He died, we die with him in repentance; as He was buried, we are buried with Him in baptism.  As He was ressurected, so we receive a new

life in the gift of the Holy Ghost, and as He was seen after His ressurection, so He is seen in us as our lives are completely changed to be conformed into His image!

Because of our love for His word, we

are committed to scriptural doctrinal purity, and stand for many important truths that are key to genuine Christianity, such as:

     Absolute

monotheism -There is only one God!  God is a Spirit and they that worship Him must worship in spirit and in truth.

     The identity

of Jesus Christ -He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature, the only begotten Son of God, the Word who was made flesh.

     The Holy

Ghost experience as being the purpose of Calvary -  Jesus did not die on the cross to produce a church of semi-committed semi-believers; rather, He is building His church with the obedient

believers to whom He gives the gift of His Spirit.

     Worship -The

automatic expression of those who understand the hope of their calling.  It is a living, Spirit energized expression of praise reflected in songs, hymns, spiritual songs, testimonies, shouting's

of praise, extended meaningful fervent prayer, the gifts of the Spirit, the preaching of the Word.

     Holiness -A

life of obedience to the law of God as motivated by a love for Him, his Word, and his people is the normal Christian experience.  It is recognized by the world in our attitude, honest business

dealings, and especially our love for one another.

     Doctrine - A

life of scriptural revelation awaits the true child of God.
