The Church And Discipleship

          There are four essential elements for becoming an intimate community of believers.  They are celebration, cultivation, caring, and communicating.  As these elements are expressed through our lives, they enable the vision to become a reality.  These four ingredients, blended together, form an intrinsic bond of fellowship through interdependence and love for one another.  The purpose of meeting is to fulfill these four basic elements:

 

          ~ CELEBRATE the grace of God in Christ.

          The gatherings are purposely designed to worship God, to lead the congregation into the presence of God through uplifting, contemporary music, open sharing and participation, and biblical study through relevant messages.

 

          ~ CULTIVATE personal growth in Christ.

          Whether as a large gathering, mid-size fellowship, or small cell group, our overall goal is to help people find freedom and maturity in Christ.

 

          ~ CARE for one another in Christ.

          We believe that each Christian is called by God to care about and serve others.  Our  ministry is designed to provide quality Christian support through all of life's hopes and hurts.

 

          ~ COMMUNICATE Christ to our world.

          We are committed to fulfilling God's call to reach out to our community with the Good News of Jesus Christ through our life-style.

 

 


SCRIPTURES SUPPORT DISCIPLESHIP

 

Jesus Is Our Advocate To Eternal Life

“Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find  it. Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s  clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from  thorn bushes or figs from thistles? Even so, every good tree  bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good  tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good  fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down  and thrown into the fire. Therefore by their fruits you will  know them. Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall  enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My  Father in heaven.”   -- Matthew 7:13-21

 

The Cost Of Eternal Life

“He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it.   -- Matt.10:39

 

Our Savior Is Able To Keep Us Safe

“My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.  “And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish;  neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. “My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand.  -- John 10:27-29

We Shall Live Because He Lives

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.   --  John 11:25

 

Jesus’ Authority Comes From The Father

“And I know that His command is everlasting life. Therefore, whatever I speak, just as the Father has told Me, so I speak.”    -- John 12:50

 

Jesus’ Is The Way To Eternal Life

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.  No one comes to the Father except through Me.    --  John 14:6

 

Jesus Died For His Friends

“Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.—John 15:13

 

Eternal Life Comes From The Father And Son

“And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.    -- John 17:3

 

The Reason The Gospels Were Written

And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book; but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.   -- Jn 20:30-31

 

Salvation And Faith Come Through The Scriptures

But what does it say? “The word is near you, even in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes to  righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made to salvation. For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him  will not be put to shame.” For there is no distinction  between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For “whoever calls upon the name of  the LORD shall be saved.” How then shall they call on Him in  whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in  Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach unless they are  sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those  who preach the gospel of peace, who bring glad tidings of  good things!” But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?” So then  faith  comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.—Romans 10:8-17

 

The Authority For Us To Make Disciples

Then Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All  authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. “Go  therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing  them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy  Spirit, “teaching them to observe all things that I have  commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the  end of the age.” Amen.    -- Matthew 28:18-20

‘Not by power, not by might, but, by my Spirit’, saith the Lord of Hosts. -- Zech. 4:6
