COVENANT OF THE CHURCH

It is my desire to be received into the membership of the Temple Baptist Church of Greenup County, Kentucky. I cheerfully accept the Statement of Faith of this Church as recorded herein, and subscribe to the constitution and by-laws.
In assuming this membership, I agree to be loyal to the interests of this church, and see it's purity and prosperity, and to seek to do some definite Christian work. I shall be subject to the discipline of the church and contribute to its support and to other Christian activities as the Lord shall prosper me, following the teaching the Bible regarding Christian stewardship.
If at any time I find myself out of harmony with the practice of this church or if my conduct or belief is called into question, and the matter is taken up by the Official Board of the Church, I agree to submit the differences on Scriptural grounds outlined in Matthew 18:15-17, I hereby authorize said Board to drop my name from the membership roll of the Church.
