History of Shiloh


          HISTORY OF SHILOH APOSTOLIC CHURCH 


The Shiloh Apostolic Church Of Jamaica Inc. was formed in November 1942, at a conference held at 16f King Street,Kingston Jamaica W.I.
The Organization was legalised on the 22nd of March 1963
Ever since its inception The Shiloh Apostolic Church of Jamaica believed and practiced holiness as demanded by God."Be ye Holy for I am Holy".
(1 Peter 1.14-16).
It is necessary then, that a standard be laid down to maintain the holy life of believers, not according to man's wisdom (Matt.15 8&9)but according to the living words of God In Shiloh our greeting motto is "Praise Jesus"
We believe that the name of Jesus Christ must be established among the heathen,infidels and ignorant. The publishing of the name of Jesus in every instance is highly necessary in these days.
To say "praise Jesus" sends a message to the unbelievers,strengthens the believer and keeps away the devil.
In Shiloh we will always use the name Jesus in all our doings.
We believe that women at all times should dress themselves in modest apparel.(1 Tim. 2:9.)
In Shiloh all members must abstain from sinful habits such as smoking,taking of drugs, alcoholic beverages, gambling, attending public places where sin is practiced nightclubs, dancehall, parties, theatres and 
any such places. No member is allowed to work in or perform any of these types of businesses for their living. Abstain from all apperance of evil 
(1 Thes. 5:22)
These precepts are not meant to restrict one's life but to maintain it at the level that Jesus demands.


Overseer Bishop Lee H. Walsh
