Doctrine
Doctrine means “teaching”.Our
statement of doctrine basically is an
explanation of what The Shepherd’s
Pasture for all Nations believes and
what we will hold to as truth that will
be taught. Our doctrine is completely
given directly from scripture and the
Holy Bible is our Canon for what we
will consider as our doctrine. We
acknowledge that out doctrine
(teachings) can change & can be
added too. We say this not because
there are any imperfections in the
Holy Scriptures, we say this because
there are imperfections in man & our
understanding of scripture often can &
will be enlightened by the Holy Spirit as
we continue to learn more & understand
more about the culture & history of the
Bible & as we advance in understanding
knowledge as mankind (Dan. 12:8-9).
