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.
          -Matt 28:18-20 (KJV)
                              We are here to reach the lost where they are, that they may be saved, while at the same time remaining obedient to the Word of God. We are to empower families, widows, orphans, the elderly, and the poor through education and financial, social and spiritual support. Only through "good works" can His will be done on earth as it is in heaven, this is what it means to be fully obedient to His Word. The second group we want to reach is those injured souls that are casualties of: the health and wealth gospel, charismania, positive thinking, name it and claim it, and other harmful teachings. We want them to know that God does heal, does prosper us, does empower us with His Spirit, does change how we Biblethink, does give us the desires of our hearts according to his sovereign will and timing.
          We want all believers to grow in the knowledge and power of Jesus Christ. We want to disciple others to be mature Christians, apt to teach others, and to encourage them to operate in their calling, to start new ministries, churches and Bible colleges. We want to see lives changed by the power of God.

FREE TO SERVE OUT OF LOVE

A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
          -John 13:34-35 (KJV)
                              When we come to Christ, He will set us free from sin and man-made religious rules (legalism). We must abide by the moral laws set forth in the Bible and the civil laws set forth by our State. This is all we have to do, love God (spiritually responsible) and love all human beings (socially responsible). Love as understood by the early Church is an action not a feeling of benevolence. When we feed the poor, we "love" the poor. When we heal the sick, we "love" the sick.
