APPLICANT’S AFFIRMATION
I have read and accept the doctrinal statement of faith of the World Bible Way Fellowship. If accepted, I will endeavor to maintain the highest Christian standard of conduct so as not bring shame or reproach to either the Lord Jesus Christ or the Fellowship. If, at any time, I deliberately live in sin, should no longer agree with the Fellowship’s Statement of Faith, choose to withdraw from the Fellowship, or if my credentials are revoked, I must return them at once. I understand that membership in the World Bible Way Fellowship does not make me an employee, agent or legal representative of the Fellowship. World Bible Way Fellowship, Inc. is not responsible for the actions, debts, etc., of any of its members. Because I believe in the Fellowship and am honored to be a part of it, I make a FAITH PROMISE to support it financially on a regular basis.
