India

Description

  • India is a large country located in South Asia. It shares borders with Pakistan to the west; China, Nepal, and Bhutan to the northeast; and Myanmar and Bangladesh to the east. India is the seventh-largest country by area in the world, and boasts the sixth-largest economy in the world by nominal GDP. New Delhi, the capital city, has a population of close to 2 million people. 72 % is Indo-Aryan, 25 % is Dravidian, and 3% is Mongoloid and other ethnicities.

What is known as India today was home to one of the world’s earliest civilizations—the Indus Valley Civilization of the 3rd millennium BCE. In the first millennium BCE large-scale colonization began in the Ganges. In the 17thcentury, the country of India was unified by the Mughal Empire, and in the subsequent centuries, came under the leadership of the British Crown. Finally in 1947 India gained its independence due to a nationalist movement. Today, India holds one of the fastest-growing economies, yet it is characterized by poverty, malnutrition, corruption, and poor health care. These challenges are largely products of the Caste System—a social hierarchy system that streams from the Hindi religion. The country of India is known for its incredible cuisine, diversity, and expansive vegetation.

Each church is independent and autonomous and must be free from interference by any ecclesiastical or political authority; that, therefore, Church and State must be kept separate as having different functions, each fulfilling its duties free from the dictation or patronage of the other.

We believe that a visible church is a company of believers in Jesus Christ, buried with Him in baptism and associated for worship, work and fellowship.

We believe that to these visible churches were committed for observance “until He comes,” the ordinances of baptism and the Lord’s Supper; and that God has laid upon these churches the task of persuading a lost world to accept Jesus Christ as Savior and to enthrone Him as Lord and Master. We believe that righteous living, good works and proper social concern are essential products of the gospel.

We believe, therefore, that those who accept Christ as their Lord and Savior will rejoice forever in God’s presence and those who refuse to accept Christ as Lord and Savior will be forever separated from God.

We believe in His bodily resurrection, His ascension into heaven, His high priestly intercession for His people and His personal, visible return to the world according to His promise.
