3 We, the congregation of Prairie View Christian Church, do ordain and establish the following ARTICLES, which form our CONSTITUTION. ARTICLE I NAME The name of this Church shall be Prairie View Christian Church, a corporation of the State of Iowa, Florence Township, Benton County Iowa, having its principle place of worship at Norway, Iowa, hereinafter referred to as this Church. ARTICLE II PURPOSE The purpose of this Church is to stand unequivocally for the fundamentals of the Christian Faith as contained in the Word of God the Holy Scriptures. To seek and accomplish the will of God by means of the direction and enablement from the Word of God and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. To teach, train and equip all believers with the ability to present the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ beginning at home in Iowa and extending throughout the world. (Matthew 28:19-20; 2 Corinthians 5:18, 20; Romans 10:17-18). To communicate the Word of God, exegetically (critical analysis of the text), categorically (with absolute certainty of the text), and isagogically (Theologically), to believers in the Lord Jesus Christ so that each may be built up in Him and become spiritually mature. (Ephesisans 4:13; Colossians 1:28).
4 To administer the ordinance of the Lord's Supper. As noted in Article III Church Ordinances. To do all things in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, giving Him the honor and glory. ARTICLE III DOCTRINES & TENETS The following basic doctrines contained in the Word of God are adopted: 1 - The Holy Scriptures We believe the Holy Scriptures to be the inspired Word of God, the final authority for faith and life, inerrant in the original writings, infallible, and God-breathed. (2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21; Matthew 5:18: John 16:12-13). 2 - The Godhead We believe in one Triune God, existing in three Persons Father, Son and Holy Spirit eternal in being, identical in nature, equal in power and glory and having the same attributes and perfections. (Deuteronomy 6:4; 2 Corinthians 13:14). 3 - The Fall and Total Depravity of Man We believe that man was created in the image and likeness of God but that in Adam's sin the race fell, inherited a sinful nature, became alienated from God, and totally unable to retrieve his lost condition. Therefore, all men are sinners, not only by constraint but by choice and are therefore under God's just condemnation without defense and excuse. (Genesis 1:26, 27; Romans 3:22-23; 5:12; Ephesians 2:12). 4 - Sovereignty
5 We believe that God, existing as Father, Son and Holy Spirit, is sovereign, and exercises supreme and absolute rule over all creation as a part of and consistent with, the essence and attributes of Deity. (1 Chronicles 29:11, 12; Daniel 4:35; Psalms 24:1; Ephesians 1:11; 1 Timothy 6:15). 5 - Eternal Security of Believers We believe all believers are kept secure in Christ forever. (Romans 8:1, 38-39; John 10:27-30; 1 Corinthians 1:4-8). 6 - The Person and Work of Jesus Christ We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, became man without ceasing to be God, having been conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary, in order that He might reveal God and redeem sinful man; that He accomplished our redemption through His spiritual death on the Cross as a substitutionary sacrifice; that our redemption is made sure to us by His literal physical resurrection from the dead (John 1:1, 2, 14; Luke 1:35; Romans 3:24-25, 4:25; 1 Peter 1:3-5), that the Lord Jesus Christ is now in Heaven, exalted at the right hand of God the Father, where, as the High Priest for His people, He fulfills the ministry of Representative, Intercessor, and Advocate. (1 John 2:1-2; Romans 8:34; Hebrews 9:24; 7:25). 7 - The Person of the Work of the Holy Spirit We believe that the Holy Spirit is a Person who convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and coming judgment indwelling in all believers in the present age, and baptizes them into the Body of Christ, seals them until the day of redemption, and that the duty of every believer is to be filled with the Holy Spirit. (Romans 8:9; 1 Corinthians 12:12-14; Ephesians 1:13, 14; 5:18; John 16:8-11; 2 Corinthians 3:6; 1 John 2:20-27). 8 - Salvation
6 We believe that salvation in every dispensation is the gift of God brought to man by grace and received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, whose efficacious (substitutionary) death on the cross provides men reconciliation (between God & man), propitiation (God is satisfied with Christ's payment of our sin), and redemption (our sin is paid for in full). (Ephesians 2:8-10; John 1:12; Ephesians 1:7). 9 - Church Ordinances We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ instituted the Ordinance of the Lord's Supper to be observed until His return. (Matthew 28:19-20; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26) The Lord's Supper: We believe that the Lord's Supper is partaking of elements that are symbols of His Body and Blood. For believers it is the commemoration of His death until He comes again and we have continual fellowship with Him. The Lord's Supper should always be preceded by personal confession of sin to the Father and careful self-examination. (1 Corinthians 11:23-32) The Personality of Satan We believe that Satan is an angelic personality, the author of sin and the cause of fall. That he is the open and declared enemy of God and man and shall be eventually punished in the lake of fire. (Job 1:6-7; Isaiah 14:12-17; Matthew 4:2-11; Revelation 20:10) The Rapture of the Church We believe that the next great event in the fulfillment of prophecy will be the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ in the air to receive to Himself the dead in Christ and believers who are alive at His coming, the Rapture, or the Translation of the Church. (1 Corinthians 15:51-57; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Titus 2:11-14).
7 13 - The Second Coming of Christ We believe that the great tribulation will be climaxed by the (pre-millennial) Lord Jesus Christ returning to earth, to set up His kingdom. (Zechariah 14:4-11; Matthew 24:15-25, 46; 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10; Revelation 20:6) The Eternal State We believe in the bodily resurrection of all men, the saved to eternal life and the unsaved to judgment and everlasting punishment. (Matthew 25:46; John 5:28-29; John 11:25-26; Revelation 20:5, 6, 12, 13). That the soul and human spirit, of those who have believed in the Lord Jesus Christ for salvation, do at death immediately enter into His presence. TENETS 1.This Church shall not at any time become a member, sanction, or support the National Council of Churches of Christ in America, the World Council of Churches, or any other such organizations. 2.
