  • Description: We believe that the local church, which is the body and the espoused bride of Christ, is solely made up of born-again persons. We believe that the church and Israel are two distinct entities and that the church began on the Day of Pentecost and will end at the Rapture. (1 Corinthians 12:12-14; 2 Corinthians 11:2; Ephesians 1:22-23; 5:25-27)
