12. PAGA is
willing to fellowship all sound Christian believers
who are contending for the love of God, and
the principles of Christ as revealed in the
Holy Bible. However, we cannot and will not
endorse or approve radical teachings which gender
strife and tend to divide the body of Christ.
We firmly stand against and denounce homosexuality,
adultery, sexual perversion, scientific interference
with natural human progeny, same-sex marriages,
pornography, gambling, drug use and partaking
of intoxicants, physical abuse, Satanism, or
divination in any form. No PAGA minister
or affiliate shall be required, but rather prohibited
from compromising these principles of faith.
13. In all other teachings,
doctrines, principles and standards in the Holy
Bible, as interpreted by the Pentecostal Assemblies
of God of America.
