Site Summary

Newport has spectacular natural beauty, fine restaurants, exciting history, the mansions of the golden era, and so much more. But, this is not why we have always chosen to meet there over the years. 

Newport is where God chose to have His Church reside for the first one hundred years of it's existence in the US, where He placed His Name, if you will.
However, none of these things should be considered in choosing to join us this fall. It is of utmost importance that you know our theme, and the teachings behind that theme. We believe that Our Savior taught truths from the very beginning, that the twentieth century church either did not fully grasp, or simply failed to hold dear. This caused the demise of the church in the late 60's and early 70's, much earlier than we could see at the time. Thus the theme "Return to the faith once delivered to the saints".

We will review these teachings using original church documents to show both the teaching, and the failure to hold them fast. Examples would be: God is our only healer; spiritual sin, not physical sin prevents healing; God uses the first visible crescent, as seen from Jerusalem, to establish the first day of each month; we are to keep three pilgrimage feasts each year; a woman is bound by the law as long as her husband is alive; and God's Pentecost falls on Monday (following a full 50 day tally which ends on Sunday). 

We also hold fast to the original teachings regarding all the present day fads, such as sacred names, so don't expect to find them here.  If this sounds interesting to you we would like to welcome you to join us.  Bring your "Purple Hymnals".
