The following is a statement onthe teachings of LORD'S COVENANT

CHURCH in relation to immuniza-tions, inoculations, vaccines, andrelated so-called "cures," "preventa-tives," or "medicines" given byinjection into the body-

We believe Christians are not

to demand or accept any suchinjections for the following reasons asgleaned from God's Holy Bible-

The church is to be holy.

Ephesians 5:27, That He mightpresent it to Himself a glorious

church, not having spot, or wrinkle, orany such thing; but that it should beholy and without blemish.

Individuals are to be holy.Romans12:1, I beseech you therefore,

brethren, by the mercies of God, thatye present your bodies a livingsacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God,which is your reasonable service.

Also, 1 Peter 1:15-16, But as He whichhath called you is holy, so be ye holyin all manner of conversation [life];because it is written, Be ye holy; for Iam holy.

Holy means not only to be inservice to God, but to be "clean." We

have a saying, "Cleanliness is next togodliness." That that is true isverified in the Old Testament passagePeter was referring to in his quote inthe preceding paragraph. It was fromLeviticus 11:44-45, For Iam the LORDyour God: ye shall therefore sanctifyyourselves, and ye shall be holy; for Iam holy, neither shall ye defile

yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon theearth. For I am the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land ofEgypt, to be your God: ye shall

therefore be holy, for Iam holy. Theseverses were at the end of the list ofclean and unclean beasts in thechapter where God's people are

commanded NOT to eat the unclean.The implication here is obvious-thatif they were to eat that wh ich isunclean, they would not be holy.

This same doctrine is in

Deuteronomy 14. It begins, Ye are thechildren of the LORD your God; yeshall not cut yourselves, nor make anybaldness between your eyes for the

dead [these were common heathenreligious practices in that day], forthou art an holy people unto the LORDthy God, and the LORD hath chosenthee to be a peculiar people unto

Himself, above all the nations [peo-ple) that are upon the earth. Thou

shalt not eat any abominable thing,and then follows the command againNOT to eat things God calls unclean.Also, in verse 21, we read, Ye shallnot eat of any thing that dieth of itself ... for thou art an holy peopleunto the LORD thy God ...

There are two other things inthat last passage quoted above that

are further reasons for refusingvaccines-

Firstly, we are not to cutourselves. Inoculations, vaccinations,etc., include puncture or cutting of the

body. (See also Leviticus 19:28 and21 :5.)

Secondly, we are not to eat,Le., partake of, anything that dieth of

itself. Vaccines are often made of, orin, bodies, fetuses, or the eggs ofcreatures that are unclean accordingto the plain Word of God. Moreover,the process of producing the so-called

"vaccine" often causes the body,fetus, or egg to die in the process.Therefore, it is further forbidden us.

We are also commanded not to

eat the blood of animals. But fleshwith the life thereof, which is theblood thereof, shall ye not eat (Gen.9:4). This was made a statute at Mt.Sinai and repeated several times as in

Lev. 3:17, 7:26, 17:10, 19:26, Deut.12:16, and others. It was commandedto Christians in the New Testament in

Acts 15:20, 29. Many vaccines aremade in or of the blood of diseasedanimals and the injection is, in effect,a blood injection into the human body.

In 1 Corinthians 3:16 Chris-

tians are asked, Know ye not that yeare the temple of God, and that theSpirit of God dwelleth in you? TheWord then continues, If any man

defile the temple of God, him shallGod destroy; for the temple of God isholy, which temple ye are. Vaccine isan alien substance, unclean byScripture definition, and injected into

the body in a manner condemned byGod in His Holy Word.

CONCLUSION

Christians are commanded byGod not to accept anything into theirbodies that would tend to defile themand make them unclean. The vaccinesare such substances and are therefore

forbidden.Written for instruction to

obedience in Jesus Christ,Pastor Sheldon Emry
