A
short list of things we feel convicted of
Luck
Nowhere does the Bible use this word. The dictionary defines it as
"
a force that brings good fortune or adversity, the events or circumstances
that operate for or against an individual, favoring chance." There is no such thing
as luck or chance with the believer-- God orchestrates all events. Rather we should use
words such as blessed or Praise God.
Body
piercing or Tattoos This is absolutely condemned in the Scriptures. Leviticus
19:28; 21:5; 1 Corinthians 3:16,17,19; 2 Corinthians 6:16.
Pets
People in ancient times kept dogs for working purposes, and some kept animals
as pets. Today millions and millions of dollars are spent on pets. God did not intend to
have animals to be companions for us, or have them in cages as we do with birds and such.
The believer should have no pets for companionship.
Drinking,
smoking, and drugs Of course the believer should have nothing to do with these
vices. I should not even have to mention them except for the fact that we find many
Christians that do these things.
Gambling
Again this goes to the idea of dependence on "chance" and not God,
and on the lust to make money. It's a form of desire coupled the thrill to win. The
believer should have nothing to do with this vice.
Movies,
videos, and TV This is a doorway to satanthese are traps to get the
believer away from God's word and set his mind on things below instead of on things above.
The believer should have nothing to do with these.
Women
Ministers Contrary to popular belief we oppose any from of famine theology or
women in authoritative positions within and without the Church.

Voting
in elections We feel believers should take a closer look at voting and the
"decision of choosing a ruler over them" more closely. www.kingshouse.org/voting.htm
Cremation
We are totally opposed to cremation as a form of body disposal for the believer
as well as donating it to science. www.kingshouse.org/cremation.htm
Incorporation
of Churches We are opposed to any form of Church incorporation. www.kingshouse.org/tax.htm
Christmas,
Easter, Halloween, etc. We are opposed to the pagan originated holidays and
feel the believer should have nothing to do with them.
Tithing
The New Testament is silent on the 10% tithe for believers. We should give from
a cheerful heart and not compulsory. www.kingshouse.org/tithing.htm
Israel
is Israel not Palestine No where does the Bible say the land of Israel should
be called Palestine. God gave it to Abraham and his descendants and not the Philistines. www.kingshouse.org/israel.htm
Bible
We feel the King James Bible is the most accurate Bible in English for
believers to use today. We reject modern translations.
Sunday
School & Children's Church - We feel that children should be present in the
meeting to hear the Word of God and not be segregated.
The
Sabbath - We are convinced, and that from the Scriptures, that the Sabbath was changed
in the N.T. in honor of the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus (Acts 20:7; 1 Corinthians
16:2). We believe the Sabbath was the.seventh day of the week (Exodus 20:9-11; Deuteronomy
5:15). The Sabbath was a sign between the Lord and the Jews (Ezekiel 20:10-12). The Lord's
day commemorates the Resurrection of Christ (Psalm 118:22-24; Luke 24:1-3; 33-36). For the
Church, the Lord's day is a time of rest, Christian activity, rejoicing, and worship. It
is made for man (Mark 2:27). Jesus is Lord of the Sabbath (Mark 2:28). It is the first day
of the week (John 20:26; Acts 20:7; 1 Corinthians 16:2).
Education
- We believe that the Christian should make every effort to educate the Children in
the home (Deuteronomy 6:7). We believe, given the state of the educational system and the
state of the country towards Christianity, that Christians should not have their
children in public schools.
UFO's
- We do not believe in UFO's. Commonly, many Christians and non-believers, seem to and
with all the supposed evidence readily except the so-called fact of UFO's. God has nowhere
in His Word said there is any other life except for Planet Earth. ET's are imbodied demons
and are, especially in these last days, making themselves visible in order to lift the
level of deception to deceive a great many.
Fiction
Books The believer should have nothing to do with falsehood or deceptions.
Therefore the believer should have nothing to do with fiction books because they tell
"stories" and not facts. We should be people of "the Book."
Games
and worldly entertainment The believer should have nothing to do with
thesethey take away from God's word and from wholesome activities and discussions
with the family.
Pictures
- We feel that pictures, statues, figurines, etc. of Jesus or angles are not to be
bought or in Christian homes. We told not to make any representations of God or things in
heaven.
Beards
- We feel convinced that, according to God's order and nature men should not have long
hair or be clean shaven. Men should wear beards and mustaches. A man has hair grow
naturally on his face a woman does not. This is a natural distinguishing marks that God
designed.
