Statement of Faith

We believe in the plenary divine inspiration of the scripture in the original languages, their consequent inerrancy and infallibility, and as the word of God, the supreme and final authority in faith and life; both the old and new testaments are verbally inspired word of God and are the revelation of God to man. (2Tim: 3÷15-17, 1Thess: 2÷13, 2Pet:1÷21)

The Oromo evangelical Christian church of Kansas City Missouri believes that marriage and the family are instituted by God. The church blesses marriage and singleness and encourages families to grow in love. Marriage is a covenant relationship intended to unite a man and a woman for life. At creation, God designed marriage for companionship, sexual union, and the birth and nurture of children. Sexual intimacy rightfully takes place only within marriage. Marriage is to be characterized by mutual love, faithfulness, and submission. A believer should not marry an unbeliever. (Jude:1÷7, Levi:18÷22)
