In applying for a position of leadership at Church of the Living God, I understand my responsibilities to live an exemplary life of Christian character. I therefore state: I have received Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Savior. I have been baptized in the Holy Spirit, and believe in the evidence of speaking in other tongues. Prayer and personal Bible study are an active part of my life and I believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God.

Worship Application I have been attending Church of the Living God for at least three months. I understand my obligation to be an example to the church and others around me, avoiding anything that may cause someone to stumble (Matt. 18:6, Rom. 14:13). I therefore commit myself to avoid the appearance of evil and abstain from sexual immorality, alcohol abuse, and the use of illegal drugs and pornographic materials. If I cannot keep this commitment I understand it would jeopardize my position and could result in termination of my leadership position.
