\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe Ministry of River City Christian Fellowship is dedicated to seeking, teaching and living the truth of the word of God. We hope to accomplish this goal not only in a local community of faith, but to also reach all who are searching for the deeper truths of the scriptures. God is most glorified when we know him through the scriptures in the context that they were written. If you are wondering about our fundamental beliefs, we hope you will come and be a part of our community of faith and learn in person. Another option would be to follow our teachings through the various platforms that we offer them.

To learn about God, we read and study the Scriptures, which are the sixty-six books contained in a standard Christian Bible. The first thirty-nine books are often referred to as the Old Testament, it is also called the TANAKH. They were written mostly in the Hebrew language, with a few sections of them written in Aramaic. The apostolic writings are the last twenty-seven books of the bible. They are frequently called the \u201cNew Testament.\u201d The oldest available manuscripts are written in Greek. We believe that God inspired the authors of the Scriptures to write them down. We believe that the whole Bible is true, and that it is applicable to our lives today.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAt River City Christian Fellowship, our goal is to interpret the Bible as accurately as possible. There are many versions of the truth throughout the church world of our day. We don\u2019t rely on popular doctrines; we try to weed out man-made traditions, compare our assumptions to what the Scriptures actually say, and only hold onto what is good. We use Scripture to interpret itself whenever possible. We do not shy away from the difficult or hard to understand truths of the scripture. While we consider many viewpoints, we will always default to what has been made clear in the scriptures. Let God be true.\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

You might hear us use different terms from time to time in our gatherings or in our teachings. Some of the Hebrew terms that we use are Torah, Yahweh, Shalom and Yeshua. Torah means law or instructions; Shalom, means peace; Yahweh, is the Hebrew name of God; and Yeshua, is the Hebrew name of Jesus.<\/p>

Many people want to know if we teach a pre-tribulation, mid-tribulation or a post tribulation rapture doctrine. The answer is that we teach none of those points of view. We understand the word rapture is not a biblical term, but we believe it is a biblical event. The catching away of the saints will happen at some point in our future. We believe that this event will occur in the Sixth Year of what many people call the 7-year tribulation period.
