Our Last Message
WHAT WE
BELIEVE!
Fuelled by a deep love for God and humanity, we are a community of believers united by our faith in Jesus Christ. We believe in God the Father, whose sovereign hand created and continues to rule over all. We hold dear Jesus the Son, who through His death, burial, resurrection, and ascension offered eternal life to those who repent, believe, and follow His teachings. We believe in the active presence of the Holy Spirit that guides and empowers our lives, shaping us into new creations.
Our foundation is the Bible, the infallible and inspired Word of God, providing all we need to live a life of faith and purpose. Just as 2 Corinthians 5:17 declares, "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!" We too strive to embrace this transformation, sharing the love and grace of God with the world around us.
WHAT WE STRIVE TO MODEL!
1. Prayer: Invest deep prayer into all your endeavors. Rely on God's power, not your own, to achieve results that will truly make a difference. Remember, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight" (Proverbs 3:5-6).
2. Community: Strive for collective engagement. By actively developing within a small group, individuals can achieve greatness through mutual support, prayer, and accountability. As Ephesians 4:16 says, "From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work."
3. Accessibility: Make an effort to meet people where they are. Following the example of Paul in 1 Corinthians 9:19-22, strive to connect with others to expand your reach. Remember, the greatest commandment is to love (Matthew 22:37-40).
4. Resourcefulness: Utilize resources available to enhance your effectiveness. Open yourself to God's guidance through other believers, following the concepts of "iron sharpening iron" and interdependence within the Body of Christ (Proverbs 27:17).
