Our believes
We believe that the King James Bible 1611 is the perfect and true word of God.
We believe that the King James Bible 1611 was translated in the correct time period, in the world language ‘English’, just before the printing press became a success, (the printing press was becoming increasingly accessible in Europe by Johannes Gutenberg, his best-known work is the Gutenberg Bible, completed in 1455) the King James Bible 1611 has reached the entire world with more than 1 billion copy’s worldwide. There is no other book or Bible more printed or read and used than the King James Bible 1611, we see this as a miracle and proof that God has preserved His word in the King James Bible 1611, the fruits have proven that this book is of God: (Luke 6:43-44). We believe that the King James Bible 1611 was a plan of God to preserve His word before hundreds of corrupt counterparts of His word were released from Alexandria, Rome and the Vatican through the invention of the printing press and copyright, the King James Bible 1611 has no copyright, the greedy new Bible versions do, they want to make profit through the word of God (1 Timothy 6:10), but this is only possible if you change the book, because a copyright is only legally valid if it book deviates from the original, which is also why the new translations with copyright are unreliable because they must be different, otherwise copyright cannot take place.
The King James Bible 1611 is based on the Texus Receptus line of Bible sources, over 5000 Greek manuscripts support the reading of the Received Text, King James Bible 1611, these agree more than 99% of the time, these sources come from Antioch (Acts 11:26). While the false line of Bibles comes from Alexandria, Egypt and via Rome, this line of Bibles contains approximately only 45 critical text manuscripts, largely from Egypt, which disagree with each other in about 30% of the cases, these critical text manuscripts are supposedly very old, but we believe that the reason why these manuscripts are old is because they have been preserved in a good storage environment, because in Egypt it is very dry and this is a good environment for preserving paper, and another reason why these Egyptian manuscripts have been preserved is because we believe that they were not used, turned out to be false, put away and forgotten, so the papers do not wear out. An old manuscript does not mean that it is automatically reliable, it can be full of errors and filled with Gnostic ideas, and that is what the manuscripts from Egypt are known for, unreliable. The King James Bible 1611 also has +- 73% support of (so called by most people) ‘church father quotes’ . (I have crossed out the word church ‘father‘ because Jesus forbids calling an overseer in the church ‘father’, Matthew 23:9)
Due to wear, use, weather influences such as the decay of paper due to moisture, war, fire, etc., the “original inspired signatures” have been lost through hundreds of years of usage, to use these remains of manuscripts as authority and or to use them for a new translation would no longer be possible because the manuscript file that we have left today is not sufficient to base a correct translation on, and the knowledge of ancient Greek is also too low in contrast to +- 425 years ago. In addition, relying on Hebrew or Greek texts is something that can lead to errors because there are many different editions and they sometimes interpret and/or explain words differently and sometimes contradict each other, this can lead to choosing the definitions yourself, causing mistakes to be made. We do believe that if a new translation were to be made today in another language, it could be done from the King James Bible 1611 because God has completely preserved His word in it.
The translation technique used to translate the King James Bible 1611 is reliable and genuine, 47 scholars worked on the translation in different teams in different locations, each book of the Bible had to pass 7 different tests before it would be accepted as scripture . This translation process was authorized by the King, King James, ‘James’ is a Hebrew name which means ‘Jakobus’ in Dutch. The King James Bible 1611 is therefore also called the Authorized Version, because it is authorized by the king, and the Bible says in Ecclesiastes 8:4 Ecclesiastes 8:4 ‘Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say unto him, What doest thou?’ The translators of the King James Bible 1611 had the time, the resources, and the king’s permission, and therefore were able to accomplish this glorious work.
The translators of the King James Bible 1611 also knew the manuscripts from Alexandria, but they consciously did not make translation choices based on these, they knew what was wrong with the sources from Egypt and Rome, just as other men knew like Beza, William Tyndale, Erasmus and many others. They consciously did not use these Alexandrian manuscripts and knew the differences between Antioch and Alexandria by heart.
Many ‘new bible versions’ of the past 150 years have only been translated by 2, 3 or 6 men, in contrast to the 47 men who translated the King James Bible 1611, not to mention the 100 years prior to that because before the King James Bible was translated, several important and many English translations were translated in those 100 years, which were polished into a crown jewel, The King James Bible 1611.
ERASMUS 1516-1522 (Greek), TYNDALE 1525 (English), Luther 1534 (German), Coverdale 1535 (English), French Bible 1535 (Vaudois), Matthew’s 1537 (English), Great Bible 1539 (English), Stephanus 1550 (Greek), Geneva 1560 (English), Bishop’s Bible 1560 (English), Bishop’s 1568 (English), Beza 1604 (Greek), KING JAMES BIBLE 1611 (English).
Also interesting is The Gunpowder Plot of 1605, often called the Gunpowder Treason Plot or the Jesuit Treason in earlier centuries, this was a failed attempt at regicide against King James I by a group of English Catholics led by Robert Catesby who considered an attempt at tyrannicide and seeking regime change in England after decades of religious persecution, ‘someone’ did not want the King James Bible 1611 translated, as was the case with William Tyndale. (see also Fire of London 1666)
God has completely preserved His word in the King James Bible 1611. Yet many Christians and even preachers do not believe that their Bible is perfect, there are many Christians who only believe that it contains words from God, the mindset that arises from this is that people start playing their own god and decide for themselves what is truth or not. We hope that by bringing people to the King James Bible 1611, we will show them that the King James Bible 1611 is the true word of God and that then there is no need for doubt, God has preserved His word without error in the King James Bible 1611, in the world language ‘English’, and you can rely on this with certainty.
The philosophy of the new Bible translations is: God’s word is lost, and we must restore it. Many Christians also believe that God changes with the times, that His word changes based on how the world changes, this is far from true, God does not change, Hebrews 13:8, John 1:1, He has no respect for persons , Acts 10:34, and neither does His word change. (Psalm 12:6-7, Psalm 33:11, Psalm 100:5, Psalm 111:7-8, Psalm 117:2, Isaiah 40:8, Isaiah 59:21, Matthew 24:35, Luke 21:33, John 17:17, 1 Peter 1:25, Isaiah 55:1-13)
You cannot make a revision of something that is perfect. There is fear that God has kept His word perfectly, and fear that if this were true they would have to submit to it. That is why many people reject the perfect authority, the King James Bible 1611.
Many churches are full of tradition, this also has to do with not daring to fully trust the word of God, doubting whether it are really the words of God. (Mark 7:6-9, Matthew 14:31)
If you want to see through the mistakes of others, and also of other Christians, and if you want to be able to distinguish false teaching from the truth, read the Bible from cover to cover at least once every year, otherwise you are easy to deceive. If you never read your Bible you will fall very quickly, the words of God are given to us for our edification and for our protection, and most importantly, for salvation.
The Bible clearly warns that we must be saved, Acts 4:12, Acts 16:30, then you need the real words of God, Romans 10:17, God gave us His written record of His Son Jesus Christ, the only way of salvation given by God to men, 1 John 5:10-12, Jesus Christ is the only way of salvation, the only way to God the Father. John 14:6, Acts 4:12.

The Godhead
We believe that the Godhead consists of God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Ghost. The Bible teaches that these three are separate, and yet equal in power and authority. While they are separate in their functions and or personality’s, they are all part of one single body. In other words, we do not believe in three gods, but in one God made up of three parts (Body, Soul, and Spirit). (Colossians 2:9, Leviticus 26:11, Genesis 1:2).
We believe that God can do anything He chooses to do (omnipotent), He knows everything He chooses to know (omniscient), and is everywhere He chooses to be (omnipresent). (Matthew 28:19; John 1:1-3; Acts 5:3-4; 2 Corinthians 13:14 and Psalm 139:7) This is the true God, as can be read about in 1 John 5:7 “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.” (John 10:30)
God the Father
We believe that the Father is the Soul of the Godhead. We understand that nowhere in the Bible it literally says that God the Father is the soul of God, but God made us in His image and after His likeness (Genesis 1:26-27, Genesis 5:1, 1 Thessalonians 5:23) (we men have a Body Soul and Spirit) and God tells us that He has a soul in Leviticus 26:11-12. Since Jesus is the Body and the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of the Godhead, we attribute the Soul to God the Father (John 1:18, 1 John 4:12). The Father has the attributes of a father. He executes wrath (Romans 1:18) and judgment (Romans 2:16), as well as love, mercy, and grace. (Romans 5:8) The bible teaches that “no man hath seen God at any time.” (John 1:18) He resides in Heaven and watches over the affairs of man. (Proverbs 15:3)
Jesus the Son
We believe that Jesus is the Body of the Godhead. The Bible says that Jesus was and is “God manifest in the flesh” (1 Timothy 3:16). And that “in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily”. (Colossians 2:9) It was Jesus who came to this earth in the likeness of sinful flesh. Jesus shed His blood on the cross to pay for the sins of mankind. (1 John 1:7) Today Jesus resides in Heaven as the mediator between God and man. (1 Timothy 2:5-6) Soon Jesus will catch away His beloved church to be with him in Heaven, so that they will be spared from the horrible outpouring of God’s wrath known as “the time of Jacob’s trouble” in Jeremiah 30:7. (1 Corinthians 15:51-55, 1 Thessalonians 4:15-18) After this 7 year period of tribulation, Jesus will return to this earth to judge the nations (Matthew 25). Then Jesus will rule and reign physically in Jerusalem for 1,000 years, after which He will judge Satan and all of the unsaved living and dead at the Great White Throne Judgment. (Revelation 20:11-15)
We believe that Jesus was being miraculously born of a virgin named Mary (Matthew 1:23). We believe that He lived a perfect life, totally free from sin (Hebrews 4:15); that He died on the cross making a vicarious blood atonement and paying the penalty of the world`s sin (1 John 2:2); and that He was buried and rose again bodily on the third day according to the Old Testament Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3-4). We believe He is in Heaven (though at the same time present in each believer`s heart through the power of the Holy Spirit) and will one day come again in bodily form to the earth (Romans 8:34 and Acts 1:11).
The Holy Ghost
We believe that the Holy Ghost is the Spirit of the Godhead. (Genesis 1:2) We believe that He is fully God (Acts 5:3-4) He is “omnipresent” meaning everywhere at all times. It is the Holy Ghost or “Spirit” that indwells the body of a believer in Jesus Christ. (1 Corinthians 6:19) Evidence of the Holy Spirit in a believer is an understanding of the truth of God’s word (John 15:26, John 16:13) and a oneness of thought among saved individuals. (1 Corinthians 1:10)
We believe that He is vital in the salvation process (John 16:8) and comes into the heart to permanently indwell the new believer. (1 John 4:13) Thus, We believe He “seals” the believer unto the day of redemption (Ephesians 1:13; 4:30). We believe that as we yield control of our lives to Him, He comforts us (John 16:7); teaches us truth (John 14:26); leads us in the will of God; fills and empowers us for service (Acts 4:8); protects us from evil, and as we “walk in the spirit”, He enables us not to “fulfill the lust of the flesh” (Galatians 5:16).
Man is created in God’s image
We believe that sinful man can never become a god or God. The Bible does however teach that man is created in God’s image. (Genesis 1:26-27) In other words, man is made up of three aspects, Body, Soul, and Spirit. (1 Thessalonians 5:23) Our Body is the physical body of flesh that each of us is given at birth. This body is corruptible. It will grow old, die, rot, and return to the earth. (Isaiah 40:6) We believe that all true believers will one day be given an incorruptible body of eternally perfect flesh. This will happen at the resurrection. (1 Corinthians 15:35-50)
Our soul is eternal, but unlike God, our soul was created and was not eternally existing. It is the soul that will live forever with God in heaven, or with Satan in Hell.
Finally our spirit is made alive or “quickened” when we are born again. (Ephesians 2:1-6) Before salvation, your spirit is dead in trespasses and sins. This is why true understanding of scripture is impossible without being saved. “The natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness unto him, neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” (1 Corinthians 2:14) A saved man or woman is given the Holy Spirit as their guide and comforter. (John 15:26, John 16:13)

Salvation through faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross.
The Bible teaches that true Biblical salvation consists of repentance (2 Corinthians 7:10, Romans 2:4), followed by an acceptance of Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Saviour by an act of free will. (Romans 10:9-13) This type of salvation leads to a changed life. (2 Corinthians 5:17) The bible says that Jesus died ONCE to pay for sins. (Hebrews 9:28) We therefore reject the Roman Catholic practice of the Eucharist (or re-sacrificing of Jesus on an altar) as a damnable heresy. (Hebrews 10:11)
Salvation in our present dispensation is not connected with works. (Ephesians 2:8-9) The bible teaches that God saves us, we do not save ourselves by our own righteousness. (Titus 3:5) While we do not believe that works are necessary for salvation, we do believe that the bible teaches that good works are evidence of a true convert. (Acts 26:20) In other words good works come after salvation. Any good works done before salvation are merely a waste of time. (Proverbs 21:4)
The Bible teaches that every Christian will one day answer for their life at the judgment seat of Christ. (Romans 14:10-12, 2 Corinthians 5:10) There will be 5 different crowns given out at this judgment. 1. Crown of rejoicing: Given to those who win souls. (1 Thessalonians 2:19-20, Luke 15:7) 2. Incorruptible crown: Given to those who remain faithful and are temperate in all things. (1 Corinthians 9:24-27, Hebrews 12:1-2, 2 Timothy 4:7) 3. Crown of glory: Given to pastors, evangelists, teachers, missionaries, or anyone who “feed” people God’s word. (1 Peter 5:1-4, John 21:15-17) 4. Crown of righteousness: Given to those who stand for truth and look forward to the appearing of Jesus Christ. (2 Timothy 4:1-8, Revelation 3:8 and 22:20) 5. Crown of life: Given to those who “endure temptation”. (James 1:12) Also given to a martyr. (Revelation 2:10) The Bible teaches that these crowns are only given to those who “strive lawfully”. (2 Timothy 2:5) In other words, God’s work must be done God’s way.

Eternal Security of a truly born-again Christian
We believe that once an individual receives the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit comes into them, that they can not lose their salvation. The first reason for this is because salvation comes from God (it is the ‘gift of God’). (Ephesians 2:8-9) It is not based on your good works. (Titus 3:5) If you have been led to believe that you can lose your salvation, then you must also believe that you must work hard to keep your salvation. This warped way of thinking comes from self-righteousness. (Please read Romans 10:2-4) The Bible also says that a saved individual is ‘sealed unto the day of redemption’ by the holy Spirit. (Ephesians 4:30 and 1:13)
—
Different dispensations
The Bible tells us to divide the word of God rightly, “rightly dividing the word of truth”. (2 Timothy 2:15) We believe in 7 major “dispensations”. (The word “dispensation” can be found in 1 Corinthians 9:17, Ephesians 1:10, 3:2, Colossians 1:25) These dispensations are;
1. The Garden of Eden. (Genesis 1:1-3:7)
2. The fall of Adam and Eve (Genesis 3:7-24) till the giving of the law to Moses. (Exodus 20)
3. The law and the prophets until John the Baptist. (Matthew 11:13, Luke 16:16)
4. The “gospel of the kingdom” is preached between the time of John the Baptist and the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The two kingdoms presented to the Jews in this period, were the kingdom of heaven which is a physical, literal, earthly kingdom. (Matthew 11:12) The other kingdom preached was the kingdom of God. This is a SPIRITUAL kingdom. (Luke 17:20-21, Romans 14:17) This “gospel of the kingdom” was preached because the King of kings (The Lord Jesus Christ) was physically on the earth at that time.
5. The crucifixion, till the rapture of the body of Christ. (1 Corinthians 15:51-58, 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18)
The book of Acts describes the formation of the Christian church and the development of our present gospel revealed to the apostle Paul. (Romans 2:16, 16:25-26, 2 Timothy 2:8) The Bible teaches that the gospel was first preached to the Jews (Romans 1:16) and because the Jews require a sign (1 Corinthians 1:22 ) the early apostles were given special “sign gifts” to confirm the gospel of Jesus Christ (Mark 16:9-20, Acts 2). When Paul began to take the gospel to the Gentiles, the sign gifts were no longer necessary because the Bible says that “….the Greeks seek after wisdom.” (1 Corinthians 1:22, Hebrews 2:3-4) We think these signs slowly diminished as we can see when you read the New Testament ( for example: 2 Timothy 4:20). We still believe that God does miracles today if He wants to, such as healing a person or giving a revelation, or that He can protect a Christian from danger, but not immediately enforced anywhere and anytime by the commandments or will of men. In other words, God is in control of such things and not us. Beware of theatrics of people who fake these kinds of gifts because they want it so badly.
We do not believe in the heretical teachings of “hyper-dispensationalism”. (Stam, Bullinger, Moore, etc.) The bible plainly teaches that Paul was part of the same body of believers that Peter, John, Matthew, Mark, and Luke were part of. The gospel we preach today was not fully revealed until Paul showed up, but that does not mean that the other apostles were not part of the same body of Christ that we are part of today. Paul stated in Romans 16:7 that there were believers “in Christ” before he himself was saved. To say that there are two bodies of Christ (crucifixion to Paul, Paul to the rapture) shows a high degree of ignorance of the scripture.
6. The church, the body of Christ being caught up, the catching up (The Rapture) (1 Corinthians 15:51-58, 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18) until the second coming of Jesus Christ. (Matthew 24:29-41, Revelation 19:11-21) This period known as the “great tribulation” (Matthew 24:21) and also as the “time of Jacob’s trouble” ( Jeremiah 30:7) will last approximately 7 years. (James 2:14-26, Revelation 14:12) In the tribulation anyone who takes the mark of the beast and worships his image, will lose their salvation and can never get it back. (Hebrews 3:14, 6:4-6, 10:26-27, Revelation 14:9-11)
7. The millennial Kingdom of Jesus Christ on this earth (Revelation 20:4-6) will be the final dispensation. (Matthew 5) Jesus Christ will be visible to anyone on the earth. (Zechariah 12:10 and 13:1-6, Revelation 1:7)
The extreme importance of clearly defining the above dispensations, cannot be overstated. Nearly all false doctrine taught today, is a direct result of not “rightly dividing the word of truth”. The huge variety of “Christians” stem mainly from not understanding the different dispensations.

Male authority in the Church and home
We do not believe in Female pastors because of the clear teaching against it in the bible. 1 Timothy 3:1-2a says, “This is a true saying, If a MAN desire the office of a bishop, HE desireth a good work. A bishop then must be blameless, the HUSBAND of one wife….” 1 Timothy 3:4 also says “his” twice and verse 5 says “man”, “his”, and “he”. The bible also says in 1 Timothy 2:11-12, “Let the women learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.” 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 plainly states, “Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law. And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.”
We believe that God has ordained the man to be the head of the home, and not the woman. (1 Corinthians 11:3, Ephesians 5:33, 1 Peter 3:1-7)
—
Modest apparel for women
We believe that women should dress in a way that they do not draw attention to themselves. As Christians, both men and women should seek to bring glory to God with our lives, we were made for His pleasure. (Revelation 4:11) The Bible tells women how they ought to dress. (1 Peter 3:3-4, 1 Timothy 2:8-10) Dressing “modestly” is not only pleasing in God’s sight, but is also a way to gain more respect from men in the world. When women dress provocatively it says something about their character. It has been well said, “If you are not in business, then do not advertize.” We believe that men should dress and act like men, and women should dress and act like women. There should be a clear distinction between the two. (Deuteronomy 22:5)
(1 Timothy 2:8-10) The word ‘modest’ comes from the word ‘limit’. So do not wear your clothes too short, not tight and neatly covered on the body parts that should be covered. This applies to men and women.
—
Non-conformity and Biblical Separation from the world
The bible says in Romans 12:2, “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” We believe that as bible-believing Christians, we must not desire to be like the world around us. The bible says in 1 John 2:15-17, “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.” Also James 4:4 says, “Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.” We do not believe in trying to be “like the world to win the world to Jesus”. That would be like jumping into quicksand to save someone who is sinking in that same quicksand. We believe in standing on the solid ground and pulling people out of the quicksand.
The bible not only teaches non-conformity to the world, but also separation from the world. (2 Corinthians 6:14-17, Romans 16:17, Ephesians 5:11, 1 Timothy 6:3-11)
—
Church
A Christian’s body is the temple of God and the Spirit of God dwelleth in him. (1 Corinthians 3:16-17, 6:19, 2 Corinthians 6:16). In 1 Peter 2:5 we read, “Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.” Every Christian is a living stone in the church, Jesus Christ is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead. (Ephesians 5:23, Colossians 1:18) In Acts 7:48 we read, “Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet,”. (Acts 17:24-25) The church is not a building, church are the Christians, who meet for example, in houses, a building, on the street or by the river.
There is one body in Christ (Romans 12:4-5, 1 Corinthians 10:17, 12:12-13, 12:20, Ephesians 2:16, Ephesians 4:4, Colossians 3:15), but there are multiple churches (Acts 9:31, 15:41, 16:5, Romans 16:4 and 16, 1 Corinthians 14:33, 16:19, 2 Corinthians 11:8, Revelation 1:11 etc.).
I think that a church should not have ANBI, a church with ANBI loses a lot of freedoms, the mouths are silenced on certain subjects, government marriages become mandatory, and doors can be closed, and all this just for the sake of a little tax benefit (1 Timothy 6: 10).
Within churches you will need men that know the scriptures, have sound doctrine, sound in the faith, and are fit for being a bishop / overseer, elder or deacon. (1 Timothy 3, Titus 1, Mark 10:42-45, Acts 20:28, 1 Peter 5:1-3, 1 Timothy 6:11, 2 Timothy 2:24-26 etc.)
A church should not decrease in preaching the truth from God’s word because of tradition, money, ‘worldly changes/modernization’ or growth in membership.
—
Public Ministry
We believe that God wants us to take His gospel of salvation through Jesus Christ to the world. (Mark 16:15) All members are required to do something to get out the gospel. (2 Corinthians 5:18-21) Whether it be street preaching, door to door visitation, (Acts 20:20) passing out gospel tracts, or even preparing the information that we distribute, all members must help with some aspect of the ministry.

A literal 6-day creation, approximately 6,000 years ago
We reject the theory of Evolution as an unscientific system of religious belief. (Romans 1:20-25) We believe that God “created all things by Jesus Christ” (Ephesians 3:9) We believe in the literal account of Genesis 1. We also reject the “Gap theory” as well as the “Day-age theory”. The bible teaching of creation lines up perfectly with the known laws of science, (things were good in the beginning, and get worse with age) whereas the theory of evolution goes against this established fact of science by teaching that everything gets better with time. This is not true of the natural world, and it is not true of the spiritual world either. (1 Timothy 4:1-3, 2 Timothy 3:1-7 and 4:3-4)
—
Heaven and Hell
The Bible teaches that there is a resurrection of the saved (1 Corinthians 15:12-23) to eternal life with God in a place called heaven. (Revelation 21:1-3) There the saved will be rewarded for their service in this life, (Matthew 6:20) and will be given eternally perfect bodies that never grow old or get sick. (Revelation 21:4) Jesus said in John 14:2-3, “In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.”
The Bible also teaches that those who die without Jesus Christ as the Saviour, will spend all of eternity in the lake of fire. (Revelation 20:15) The current destination of the unsaved is in a place called Hell which is located in “the heart of the earth”. (Matthew 12:40, Acts 2:27) Hell is described by Jesus as a “furnace of fire” in Matthew 13:42 and 50, where the “fire is not quenched” Mark 9:44-48. The inhabitants of Hell will one day be taken out of Hell for their final judgment (Revelation 20:11-15) before they are cast into the lake of fire for the rest of eternity.
—
Satan
We believe that Satan, or “the Devil” is a real being who can currently go before God in heaven. (Job 1:6-7 and 2:1-6) In the future period of Jacob’s Trouble, he will be cast out of heaven (Revelation 12:7-12). We do not believe that he is the ruler of Hell as the world tries to portray him. The bible says that Satan is the “god of this world” (2 Corinthians 4:4) and that he appears as “an angel of light” (2 Corinthians 11:14) and his ministers appear as “the ministers of righteousness.” (2 Corinthians 11:15). The bible teaches that Satan or “Lucifer” lost his position of power in heaven because he tried to become like God (Isaiah 14:12-15). The bible says that the final destination for Satan will be the lake of fire (Revelation 20:10).

Music
We reject all forms of Rock and Roll, Heavy Metal, and Rap music. The bible says in Ephesians 5:19, “Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;” and in Colossians 3:16, “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” The majority of Rock, Metal, and Rap music is centered around rhythm rather than melody. The beat in these three types of music is much faster than a normal heart rate, which leads someone who is listening to these types of music to be much more aggressive and violent. The themes of these types of music are nearly always centered around the flesh. (Galatians 5:16-17) We also do not believe that these styles of music can be made “Christian”. (Ephesians 5:11)

Sodomy
The bible very clearly states that Sodomy is a sin. Leviticus 18:22 says, “Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.” Deuteronomy 23:17 says, “There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel.” Romans 1:25-28 also condemns the sin of Sodomy. The bible also says in 1 Corinthians 6:9-11, “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.” The bible clearly states that “effeminate” men can get saved, but it requires a new life.

Abortion is murder
In Ecclesiastes 11:5 we read: “As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.”
It is clear in this verse, the woman is with child during her period of ‘pregnancy’, in the womb of the woman there is a child. The words fetus and embryo where invented as an excuse to kill children and perform gruesome experiments on them.
Babies are gifts from God and an inheritance from the Lord. Psalm 127:3 says, “Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.” In Jeremiah 1:5 we read that God knew the prophet Jeremiah before he was formed in his mother’s womb. We believe that killing a child in their mother’s womb for any reason is murder. (Genesis 16:11, 1 Samuel 4:19, 2 Samuel 11:5, Isaiah 26:17, Matthew 1:18, Matthew 1:23, Luke 2:5)
Also with IVF with ‘residual embryos’ (children) dozens of children are ‘cultured’ and destroyed or experiments are done on them that in their view are not suitable for transfer.

Vaccines:
Christians should not be vaccinated as their bodies are a temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19) God dwells in us and we should take good care of our bodies. Nor should we change our DNA as vaccines do today by means of genetically modified cells, ‘mRNA’.
God our creator has given us a mouth to eat healthy food and drink clean water, to wash with it and to cleanse things. He did not give us a body to mess or tinker with, God made us wonderfully and we do not need to change that. (Psalm 139:14)
Also the fact that Vaccines are made on aborted babies (abortion) should make you think as a Christian. (Jeremiah 1:5, Psalm 127:3) And even though it is sometimes not on the ingredients list, it is a fact and has been used in the making of many vaccines. It has long been common practice for vaccines to be provided with cells from aborted fetuses. Those cell lines are designated, inter alia, by the codes MRC-5, WI-38 and HEK 293 (COVID-19 vaccine). These ‘human diploid’ cells are not only found in the (chicken)pox vaccine Varivax, but also in, among others, Twinrix (hepatitis A/B) and ProQuad (MMRV: measles, mumps, rubella, chickenpox; called MMR, or BMR in the Netherlands, without the chickenpox addition). In addition, animal cells are also used, while God has separated us from the animals, we communicate with words and animals with sounds, we have been placed above the beasts and have been given dominion over them. (Genesis 1:28)
Vaccination is a sin according to the Bible, I recommend that you take a good look at this and do more research on what is going on about all this.
Scriptures that prove a christian cannot take any vaccines:
Mark 2:17a says, ”When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick:” – Please note the difference between someone who is healthy (whole), and someone who is sick. Healthy people do not need to be “pre-treated” with a disease, in order to not get the disease!
1 Corinthians 3:16-17 ”Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.”
– All Vaccines contain toxic “adjuvants” such as Mercury (Thimerosal), Formaldehyde, Aluminum, Propylene Glycol, and many others. The King James Bible gives zero permission to inject poisons into the body with a needle!
Psalms 139:14 ”I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.”
– Our bodies are perfectly capable of fighting off any disease if we are in good health and our immune system is functioning correctly. It is up to each individual to take care of their body which was given to them by Almighty God, and no one has the right to take control of another man’s body for any reason!
Romans 13:3 ”For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:”
Bible-believing Christians are only required to submit to good rulers who pass laws that do not bring terror to innocent people. Forced Vaccination is one of the greatest forms of bringing terror to people who are not sick and who actually believe that God can cure any illness.
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
1 Corinthians 6:19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
Psalms 139:14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
Luke 14:25 And there went great multitudes with him: and he turned, and said unto them, Luke 14:26 If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. Luke 14:27 And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
1 Timothy 6:20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:
Psalms 118:8 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.
Proverbs 28:17 A man that doeth violence to the blood of any person shall flee to the pit; let no man stay him.
Leviticus 17:11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.
Acts 5:29 ”Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.’’
I choose to obey God and his written word.

Education
God has given us as parents a great responsibility to raise our children according to His word, honor, and pleasure. This is in the best way possible if we as parents provide the upbringing and education to our children. The Bible reads: “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.’’ (Proverbs 22:6) If you give your children away to someone else, you hand them over to their thinking, doing and leaving. How ‘Christian’ a public school thinks and claims to be, if you take your child there you will lose most of the control of your child.
Just because schools call themselves ‘Christian’ or ‘with the Bible’ does not mean that this is really the case, nor does it mean that the teachers there are Bible believing Christians, i went to ‘Christian’ schools until I was nineteen and there was little (lower-class school) to nothing (middle/high school) Biblical to be found except for a ‘Christmas story’, and I have not even mentioned the ecumenical religion lessons, the Genesis denying physics lessons, the Atheistic religion we come from stones and monkeys and the fairy tale of the spontaneous big bang ‘long long ago’. (1 Timothy 6:20, Colossians 2:8) Looking back (especially high school), it was a place of blasphemy, fornication, and disobedience. This has to do with not constantly having one place of education (home), with one authority (parents) and one guiding book (The Bible).
The Bible nowhere authorizes or commands us to take our children to a government owned public school and turn our children’s care and education over to secular teaching materials and strangers. After our own experience, we believe that it is therefore better to provide education ourselves.
We understand that once someone has opted for public school it is difficult to deviate from this in the Netherlands, but we believe it is quite a job and a big risk to raise your child ‘in Christ Jesus’ away from home.
In the Bible we can find that parents give instruction. Proverbs 4:1 ”Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding.” (Deuteronomy 6:7)
See also the chapter ”Nonconformity and Biblical Separation from the World’’.

Marriage Coverture
Ephesians 5:31 ‘For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.’
Marriage is ordained of God, he has made man and woman, and these two are in marriage one flesh. (Genesis 1:27, 2:18 en 24)
True marriage is for God and His church, something between God, man and woman, and this is where the origin lies.
A Biblical marriage is a blessing, God knows what is good for us, after all, He is our creator. Husband and wife become one flesh and let their marriage be guided by the word of God and the Holy Spirit. (Ephesians 5:22-33)
Seven points for a Biblical wedding (John 2:1-2, Matthew 22:2):
1. Bridegroom – (Psalm 19:5, Isaiah 61:10, 62:5 John 2:9 etc.)
2. Bride – (Isaiah 49:18, John 3:29, Revelation 21:2)
3. Betrothal – (Deuteronomy 20:7) – In the Bible the word engagement does not appear, the word is Betrothed / Espoused. The announcement is an important part of this, let everyone know that you are getting married and that you are not whoremongers.
4. Guests / Witnesses – (Matthew 22:10-11, John 2:9) – For during the ceremony.
5. Ceremony – read Ephesians 5:22-33 to each other.
6. Reception (Revelation 19:9) – In the Bible ‘Marriage Supper’.
7. Wedding night – Marriage bed (Hebrews 13:4) – Children, ‘if God gives them’. (Genesis 29:31, 30:22, Ecclesiastes 11:5) For this is a woman’s highest goal in life if she has a husband, to raise children and take care of the house. (Genesis 8:15-17) 1 Timothy 2:15 ‘Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.’
Titus 2:4-5 4 ‘That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.’
A beautiful ensample in the Bible is how Jesus Christ is the Bridegroom of His church the bride (believers in Christ Jesus). A beautiful example from God to us about how much He loves His church, but also an example for the husband on how much he must love his wife. (Ephesians 5:25)
A few more short points on Marriage:
– Do you have dissension? Then read (Ephesians 4:21-26 and 29-32) Ephesians 4:26: ”Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:”
– Do you have problems with lust? Get married. (1 Corinthians 7:1-9)
– Do NOT ‘know’ one another before marriage. (no sex before marriage) (Genesis 4:1, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10)
– We believe that using contraception (anti-conception) is not an option for Christians because it goes against God’s clear command to multiply abundantly, God clearly says; be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein. Listen to God, and do not listen to men. The world says; “overpopulation, overpopulation!” this is nonsense, and against the will of God, God wants us to be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth. (Genesis 2:24, Genesis 9:1, Genesis 9:7) We believe that masturbation is a form of contraception and a sin. Are you burning? Then get married. (1 Corinthians 7:9, Galatians 5:16)
– Marriage is unto death. (Matthew 19:4-6)
– Paul advises not to remarry. (1 Corinthians 7:39-40, 1 Corinthians 7:8) But he said that young widowed women should remarry to avoid a sinful and idle life. (1 Timothy 5:11-15)
– Divorce is sin. (1 Corinthians 7:10-11 Matthew 5:31-32)
– If one commits fornication in marriage, divorce is allowed. (Matthew 19:7-9) (1 Corinthians 5:11-13)
– Do not marry an unbeliever. (If this has happened and one of the two is converted, bring your husband or wife to Christ.) (2 Corinthians 6:14-17, 1 Corinthians 7:15 and 39)
– We no longer have a government state marriage license ourselves, this because the government offers unbiblical forms of marriage.
– Living together and not wanting to marry as husband and wife is sin and great disobedience to the word of God, the church should not be partakers with them, this sin should not be mentioned once among them, (Ephesians 5:3-9) (Hebrews 13:4) (1 Corinthians 6:9-10, 13-20) (1 Thessalonians 4: 3-8) for which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on them. (Colossians 3:5-7) Do not be fooled by this worldly trend. Getting married is a must if you want to be one and come together as a husband and wife, if you do not get married you fall under the Bible term; ‘whoremonger, fornicator’.
1 Corinthians 6:9-10 ‘Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.’
