Branch
Precept of La Luz del Mundo

Faith should appear in moral and civic conduct.

The church teaches love of God and neighbor, charity, obedience to civil law, respect for institutions, and voluntary religious commitment.

What it asksLove God and neighbor, help others, obey law, and respect human rights and civic institutions
Who it bindsMembers as religious, moral, and civic persons
Where it bitesIn daily conduct and service rather than confession alone
Understanding it — context, not catechism: how this passage is held

La Luz del Mundo's public principles divide guidance into religious, moral, and civic dimensions. The church presents good works and altruism as following Jesus' example. These are institutional norms and ideals rather than proof of every leader's or member's behavior. That distinction matters because public accountability findings concerning García conflict sharply with the church's stated ethics.
