We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; in deed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul ... if there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.

How wonderful to become new and clean.



“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature, old things are passed away; behold all things are become new.” (2 Corinthians 5:17)
It is such a wonderful thing to become new and clean, to repent and be forgiven – old things gone away – a new beginning with a clean slate. For all of that we must still endure until the end. This is not done in fear and trepidation that we will fail, but with faith as we gain strength and are guided by the Holy Spirit from glory into glory. We may slip but that is why we need to have a routine time for prayer that we may keep the slate clean. That we might always have his Spirit to be with us.
