Statement of Faith
-
We believe the Bible to be inspired, the only
infallible, authoritative Word of God.
-
We believe that there is only one God, eternally
existent in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy
Ghost.
-
We believe in the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in
His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His
vicarious and atoning death through
His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His
ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His
personal return in power and glory.
-
We believe that for the salvation of the lost and
sinful man regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely
essential.
-
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy
Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled
to live a godly life.
-
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved
and the lost, they that are saved unto the resurrection of life
and they that are lost to the
resurrection of damnation.
-
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in
our Lord Jesus Christ
All underwriters must affirm agreement with
the above.
Code
of Conduct
WATC
fosters and encourages excellence in Christian
broadcasting by establishing and maintaining
high standards with respect to content, method
of presentation, and ethical practices. The
public looks to us to maintain consistent
ethical behavior into our broadcasting,
programming, business, management, financial,
and relational responsibilities.
Recognizing the Bible as the standard by which
we must evaluate all beliefs, instruction,
policies and practices, WATC has adopted the
following Code of Conduct and requires that all
programmers adhere to these standards:
-
I
will conduct my personal life, corporate
ministry, and business affairs in a way that
will not bring shame or reproach to the name
of the Lord. Rather, I will speak to bring
glory and pleasure to our Lord and encourage
others to do likewise (I Peter 1:14-16;
2:12; 4:11)
-
I
will speak the truth in love. (Ephesians
4:1-16)
-
I
will recognize and respect what the Lord is
doing through other individuals and
organizations while refraining from
unnecessary criticism of them. (I Peter
3:8,9)
-
I
will not use the media to knowingly speak
falsely against anyone. (Exodus 20:16)
-
When
I believe a WATC programmer has sinned
against me or the Lord, or has violated this
Code of Conduct I will follow the principles
and procedures set forth in God’s word.
(Matthew 18:15-17)
-
I
will honor my obligations to my vendors,
neighbors, community and government. (Romans
3:7-8)
-
In
matters of dispute with other Christians, I
will attempt to submit my grievances to
Christian arbitration for resolutions rather
than to the courts of the land (I
Corinthians 6:1-8). Nothing herein shall be
construed so as to prohibit a member from
expressing his genuine concern to another
brother in a spirit of love and in
accordance with Matthew 18:15-17.
Please
tell us what you think about our Code of
Conduct. Do you agree or disagree?
