Article Thirty
Godly Living in a Perverse World
We believe that because of the perverseness and ungodliness of the times, we ought to
urge the following recommendations to the body of believers:
- Believers ought to dress and behave modestly in public.
- Believers must be careful to maintain sobriety at all times and shun intoxication through the excessive use of wine.
- Believers ought to avoid those forms of worldly entertainment, music, dancing, theater, films, and
fictional reading whose moral
content may be questionable.
- Believers ought to make every effort to send their children to Christian schools of the highest possible scholastic, moral, and
doctrinal standards.
- Believers ought to choose to adopt a healthy, wholesome lifestyle. Knowing that our
bodies are the temple of the Lord, we ought to follow
the laws of health to the best of our abilities.
- Believers ought to make every effort to have morning and evening devotions in the home.
