About Us

The KBC Confession of Faith (what every member must affirm) and the KBC Church Covenant (what every member commits to), and the KBC Doctrinal statement (what we teach and what every member must submit to) are laid out below.

Confession of Faith.

We believe in God, the Father Almighty, the Maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord:

Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried;

He descended to Sheol;

The third day He arose again from the dead;

He ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from there shall come to judge the living and the dead.

We believe in the Holy Spirit; the holy catholic church; the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life everlasting.

Amen.

Church Covenant.

*This is a description of the required practices of every member. Anyone with a settled disagreement against any of these practices cannot be a member of KBC. We believe everyline of the Covenant is taught in Scripture and, therefore, we believe we are only holding members to what Jesus already commands them to do. We do not believe anyone can do any of these practices perfectly, but we do believe “by the aid of the Holy Spirit,” every single Christian will want to do all these practices in increasing measure.

 

Having been led, as we believe, by the Spirit of God, to receive the Lord Jesus Christ as our Savior, and on the profession of our faith having been baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, we do now in the presence of God, angels, and this assembly, most solemnly and joyfully enter into covenant with one another, as one body in Christ.

We commit, therefore, by the aid of the Holy Spirit, to walk together in Christian love; to strive for the advancement of this church in knowledge and holiness; to sustain its worship, ordinances, discipline, and doctrines; to contribute cheerfully and regularly to the support of the ministry, the relief of the poor, and the spread of the gospel through all nations.

We will not forsake the assembling of ourselves, in order that we may engage to watch over one another in brotherly love; to remember each other in prayer; to aid each other in sickness and distressto be willing to confront sin, and ready to restore should a brother be won over; to be slow to take offense, but always ready for reconciliation and, mindful of the commands of our Savior, to secure it without delay.

We also commit to maintain family and private devotion; to educate our children in our faith; to seek the salvation of our family and friends; to live carefully in the world, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, and remembering that we have died with Christ and our lives are hidden with Christ in God; furthermore, we have been raised with Christ, and will seek the things that are above.

And we submit that if we leave from this plave, we will as soon as possible unite with some other church, where we can carry out the spirit of this covenant and the principles of God’s Word.

Of Baptism.

 

Baptism is an ordinance of the New Testament, ordained by Jesus Christ, to be unto the party baptized, a sign of his fellowship with him, in his death, and resurrection; of his being engrafted into him; of remission of sins; and of his giving up unto God through Jesus Christ to live and walk in newness of life. Those who do actually profess repentance towards God, faith in, and obedience, to our Lord Jesus, are the only proper subjects; to be baptized, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Immersion is necessary to the due administration of this ordinance.
