Statement of Beliefs and Proclamation of Faith of the members of the RCC and UCC*

WE BELIEVE IN THE LORD JESUS THE CHRIST WHO CAME AND TOOK UPON HIM HUMAN FORM.
   
WE BELIEVE HE WALKED WITH US, SHARED IN OUR TEMPTATIONS, OVERCAME ALL TEMPTATION AND EVIL AND PAID THE PRICE FOR US ON THE CROSS OF CALVARY.
   
WE BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST, DIVINE LORD AND SAVIOUR, AND THAT HE OVERCAME THE POWERS OF SATAN AND HELL BY HIS RESURRECTION.
   
WE BELIEVE THAT ALL WHO COME TO HIM, AND REPENT OF THEIR SINS, AND ASK JESUS THE CHRIST TO COME INTO, AND BE THE CENTER OF THEIR HEARTS & LIVES: ARE SAVED FROM THE CONDEMNATION AND PUNISHMENT OF ORIGINAL AND SUBSEQUENT SINS, UP TO THAT MOMENT THAT A PERSON OPENS THEIR HEART TO CHRIST.
   
WE BELIEVE IN THE RETURNING TO FELLOWSHIP WITH GOD, AND THE FOLLOWERS OF JESUS CHRIST, BY THE CONFESSION OF SINS AND REPENTANCE OF THE BELIEVER.
   
WE HOLD THAT ALTHOUGH THERE MAY BE MANY EXPRESSIONS OF OUR ONE FAITH - -
IT IS STILL ONE FAITH IN JESUS THE CHRIST - - OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR,
GOD THE FATHER, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT; ONE GOD FOREVER.
   
WE ACKNOWLEDGE JESUS CHRIST TO BE THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE, AND NO PERSON COMES TO GOD THE FATHER EXCEPT BY THE PRECIOUS SHED BLOOD OF JESUS ON THE CROSS AND THE CONVICTION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
   
WE REQUIRE NO OUTWARD SIGNS OF TRUE CONVERSION, SAVE BE UNRESERVED REPENTANCE FOR PAST SINS, COMMITMENT TO WALK HENCEFORTH IN THE WAY GOD WOULD LEAD US, THROUGH THE BIBLE AND THE LEADINGS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, BELIEVING IN THE POWER OF CHRIST.
   
WE RECOGNIZE THE HARMONY AND UNITY THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT CREATES IN ALL BELIEVERS AND THAT IT IS THAT HARMONY WITH GOD AND EACH OTHER THAT IS NECESSARY FOR TRUE REVIVAL OF THE "SPIRIT OF GOD" AMONGST HIS PEOPLE, THE CHURCH AND THIS LAND.
   

O GOD, THEN SO GUIDE, COMMEND, RENEW AND DEDICATE US TO BE YOUR DISCIPLES IN THIS AGE,

TO PREACH THE GOSPEL IN DAILY LIFE (BAPTISING) AND MAKING DISCIPLES OF ALL MEN (PEOPLE).”

--- Amen              

 

Commission to form the Rural Christian Conferrence was given by God during the Pastor's Conference at Berkshire Christian College, March of 1981, and this statement of beliefs and proclamation of faith given during private prayer before an evening prayer meeting at Hephzibah Heights Bible Conference Center, July of 1981. There have been clarifications by God in the first 99days and where those changes are can be obtained by request. --- recorded by C.E.Knight (1982) and , transcribed by Alice Davis, 03-21-2003 (reviewed 06/06/2008)
Charlie Knight is seeking prayer and advice from Holy men and women of God about this “ministry” as he has delayed doing this for over 27 years trying to follow the advice of people who said he should not be so engaged.  But his life has crumbled, and those near and dear to him have died, and the family home and belongings as well as his health have deteriorated.

He now feels that his only path is to move out in faith to do this which so many have said he should not do, but he has NO peace or joy in his life unless he is so engaged. Please pray for charlie knight and tell him, through us, if God has given you a word of information about the direction in which he should labor in this vineyard.

*  The two components of the Combined Christian Conferrence are the Rural Christian Conferrence and the Urban Christian Conferrence.
    The Rural Christian Conferrence was to be established, as Charlie Knight understood it, to coordinate and found prayer groups that would pray for revival of God's people in the rural communities with all the emphasis and particular trials that such a community shares with other rural groups.
    The Urban Christian Conferrence was to be establlished, again as Charlie Knight understood it, to pray for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon congregations within the urban setting and the energizing of these people of God with the particular temptations and trials that accompany living/existing/triumphing in a more-or-less cosmopolitan setting.

We hope you will write us or email us with your personal prayer requests
and how God is leading you to form a RCC / UCC prayer group where you abide.
