Charity Baptist Tabernacle was planted 30 years ago by Pastor Larry Hickam and has always been exclusively under the Lord Jesus Christ. At one meeting with other pastors in Amarillo, someone once asked Pastor Hickam if CBT had a constitution. His response was to lift his King James Bible and say, “Yes, and here it is.” CBT remains, to this day a First Amendment, non-statutory, non-incorporated, non-501(c)(3), non-508(c)(1)(a) church which gives the preeminence to the Bridegroom, the Lord Jesus Christ.
Pastor Larry’s son, Ben Hickam became Pastor when his dad, Larry Hickam, stepped down in July, 2018. Like his dad, his sole authority for all matters of faith and practice (individual, family, and church) is the King James Bible.
After becoming pastor, he led CBT in executing a Declaration of Trust laying out relevant Bible and legal principles regarding the holding and management of God’s property and the relationship of church and state; something CBT already knew and practiced.

The local church sanctified and cleansed by the washing of water by the word——————–A ministry of Charity Baptist Tabernacle of Amarillo, Texas led by Pastor Ben Hickam. "Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me. For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ" (2 Corinthians 11:1-3). ————————————Jerald Finney, a Christian Lawyer and member of Charity Baptist Tabernacle, having received this ministry in the Lord, explains how a church in America can remain under the Lord Jesus Christ and Him only. "As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen" (1 Peter 4:10-11; See also, Ephesians 4::1-16 and 1 Corinthians 12:1-25). "Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil it" (Colossians 4:17). "And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church" (Ephesians 1.22; See also, e.g. Colossians 1:18).
