Our vision is to reach this world for Jesus Christ, by equipping the Church with powerful and effective biblical principles from the Word of God. The Church of the Lord Jesus Christ is made up of born again people from all over the world. Who know it's time for us not to just go to church, but to be the church. ( to be Jesus hands, his voice and his heart.) We would welcome you to join us in prayer and also to labor in his harvest fields.
We believe our first priority as a Christian is to bring God Glory. "Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God." 1 Corinthians 10:31 (KJV) We believe that Jesus Christ died for his church and that the church is the organism that God has chosen to use that men might be saved. "For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body." Ephesians 5:23 (KJV) The scripture saith in Romans 10:17 (KJV), "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." Our mission is that people everywhere would hear the gospel. And preaching is the ordinary ordained method that God has chosen. "For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe" 1 Corinthians 1:21 (KJV). Other methods that we use are preaching, one to one witnessing, tracts, signboards, or any method were the word can be heard. Our vision is to see THE TRUE CHURCH unite as the army of God. Because there is only, "One Lord, one faith, one baptism, One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all" Ephesians 4:5-6 (KJV). Do you desire to bring him glory in all you say and do? Do you desire to be obedient to him? Are you being the salt and light that Jesus said we should be? If not you should. "Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? Friend we can love nothing more than God. He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me." 2 Corinthians 13:5 (KJV) "Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him." 1 John 2:15 Priority #2 of a Christian. Winning souls.We believe that the salvation of souls is of utmost importance because souls is why Christ laid down his life. "The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise." Proverbs 11:30 (KJV) "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." John 15:13 (KJV) "And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever" Daniel 12:3 (KJV) Friend have you been willing to lay aside your desires, ambitions or plans for Christ, this is what it means to be crucified with Christ. In Galatians 2:20 (KJV) Paul writes, "I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me." He gave himself for us so we should give ourselves to him. In Romans 12:1 (KJV) he wrote, "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service." Friend if we have truly been born again we will obey the two greatest commandments. Jesus told us what those are in Matthew 22:37-39 (KJV). "Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." If we truly love our families, friends, co-workers, etc. we will show them the grace and truth that comes in knowing Jesus Christ personally. We do this by teaching them The Way of the Master. This is biblical. What we have learned we must be willing to teach and share with others. This is why we recommend the school of biblical evangelism. www.biblicalevangelism.com Check it out. If we have truly been born again we will be obedient to our Lord and Savior commands! "And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen." Matthew 28:18-20 (KJV) For His Glory Brother Kendall |
