Welcome to the Alliance Bible Church Website
Alliance Bible Church in North Little Rock Arkansas welcomes you to our Website.

Before we sin, the Holy Spirit tries to stop us by giving us a warning. But we often ignore that warning and
give in. With recklessness, we practice sin and fall into guilt. But then the guilt begins to dissipate the more
we practice it and before long, we somehow justify it. But God will not allow us to go on sinning, because He
loves us and will sometimes administer pain to teach us a lesson. If we are wise, we will humble ourselves and
seek forgiveness. When we do that, God is always quick to forgive through the blood of His Son, Jesus
Christ; which is powerful enough to remove the darkest stain.

Psalm 141: 3-5:
Set a guard, O Lord, over my mouth; Keep watch over the door of my lips. Do not incline my
heart to any evil thing, to practice wicked works with men who work iniquity; and do not let me eat of their
delicacies. Let the righteous strike me; it shall be a kindness. And let him rebuke me; it shall be as excellent
oil; Let my head not refuse it.

I love how the church is growing and developing.  We are excited about what God is doing with us. We are a small church
that averages
45; however, we are unified in our desire to serve God with all of our heart and consider ourselves a tight family.
We are evangelical, meaning that we have a desire to grow by making and developing disciples for Christ. That is why we
have our arms wide open to anyone who wants to know Christ and serve in His kingdom.

If you are visiting this site for the first time, we want you to know that we would love to see you. Come as you are and join in
with us!

Serving together in unity,

Pastor Charles McElhannon

Overview
We are an evangelical church that is a part of the Christian and Missionary Alliance (C&MA). The Christian
and Missionary Alliance began as a deeper life and missionary movement initiated by Dr. Albert B. Simpson
in 1887 to mobilize the under-utilized lay forces and resources of the churches to "take the whole Bible to the
whole world." He believed that a life completely yielded to Christ was one in which service to Christ would be
of paramount importance. A person controlled by the Holy Spirit has no choice but to be involved in bringing
the Good News to others, either as an overseas missionary or as a missionary at home.

The founder was reluctant to establish churches, preferring to call together Christians with a vision to
evangelize the world but who remained in their local churches. However, the Christ-centered emphasis in
teaching and the priority on missions made many people unwelcome in their denominations, causing them to
form groups that for years were called "branches," not churches. By the mid-1970s, it became clear that The
Alliance was a denomination in all but name, so with revised bylaws and constitution that reality was
formalized in 1974.

Our history is rich in ministry. The cornerstone of our National Office building in Colorado Springs is a visual
reminder of our roots. It was first laid at the Gospel Tabernacle in New York City in 1889.
