What We Are About?
- Our goal is to restore primitive Christianity as revealed in the New Testament (2 Timothy 3:16-17; Colossians 3:17).
- Our desire is to teach others to respect the authority of Jesus Christ to make true disciples (Mathew 28:19-20).
- Our prayer is that we will do this in a spirit of humility, so that God’s name will be glorified and more disciples will be brought to Him (1 Peter 3:15; Ephesians 3:21).
Looking for Something Real?
- We are not a recreation center.
- We are not a welfare society.
- We are not a political action committee.
- We are not a country club.
- We are a church. This all we want to be, and this is all the Lord wants us to be.
Our single aim is to accomplish the Divine mission laid out for God’s people in Ephesians 4, where we are told that Jesus Christ has given gifts to individuals to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ (Ephesians 4:12-13). The God given purpose of a local church is to equip it’s members for their work of ministry, not to do all of their work for them. As a local church, we are called to challenge our members to be disciples of Christ; helping them to obey all that the Lord has commanded us in His word (Matthew 28:19-20).
“… let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, 25 not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near” (Hebrews 10:24-25).
