Our ministry is founded on three fundamental convictions:

  • The original revelation of Christ and the apostles as recorded in the NT is fully inspired by the Holy Spirit; along with the OT, it is God's inerrant and infallible truth and the ultimate authority for the church of Christ today. All believers throughout history are dependent on the words and teachings of Biblical revelation for determining God's standards and experience as God's preeminent pattern for the church, valid for all times.

  • It is the task of every generation of believers not only to accept the NT as God's inspired Word, but also to sincerely seek to reproduce in their personal lives and congregations the same faith, devotion and power demonstrated in and through the faithful members of the early church. I am persuaded the the full life in the Spirit as promised by Christ and experienced by NT believers is still available for God's people today. It is the divine inheritance of all God's children to receive the fullness of christ in the original power of the Holy Spirit.

  • The church will fully experience the original kingdom power and life in the Holy Spirit only as it seeks with all its heart the rightousness and holiness set forth by God in the NT as his standard and will for all believers. Kingdom power and kingdom righteousness go together; they cannot be separated. The apostle Paul states the God's kingdom consits of both "power" (1Co.4:20) and "righteousness" (Ro14:17). Thus the way to the fullness of God's kingdom with all its redemptive power is found in sincere faith in and devotion to the Lord Jesus Christ and in a separation from all unrighteousness that offends both God and the Holy Spirit whom he has poured out.

    • Our vision is that all walks of life earnestly seek the NT church's devotion to God, its longing for the nearness of the risen Christ, its unshakeable trust in and love for God's Word, its zeal for truth and righteousness, its mutual care for other believers, its compassion for the lost, its dedication to a life of fervent prayer, its passion for holiness, its fullness in the Spirit, its manifestion of spiritual gifts, its urgency to preach the gospel to all nations, and its hope for the imminent return of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
