To Be The Most Loving People Possible

Sharing This Loving Model Of Church Life All Over The World...

The Bible is the word of Godand is to be the final source of authority in all matters of faith and
practice.

Inthese last days, Jesus and the Apostles clearly warned us that their would be
many false prophets and teachings, using the Bible in wrong ways to try to
prove their points. Every cult has to either disregard the scriptures or
wrongly interpret them. The Principles of Proper Biblical Interpretation must
be used to build healthy and solid doctrine in these last days.

2 Tim. 3:14-16; Hebrews 4:12; 2Peter 1:19-21; Hebrews 1:1-2; Romans 16:25-26; Luke 21:33; John 16:12-15

There is only one God who isrevealed in a triune nature, God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ) and God
the Holy Spirit. God can be intimately known by everyone but cannot be fully
known by anyone because of how great He is.

Genesis 1:1 “Elohim” the pluralname for God; John 1:1ff; John 14:7-11; Check a Bible concordance to find
personal attributes for all three members of the Godhead; The concept of God
being divine nature vs. human nature- we can not comprehend “divine nature” it
is totally different.

On the cross, Jesus died forall of our sins, sicknesses, sufferings and shame, because sin had

condemned us to an eternal Hell just like the Devil and his angels. We were in need of
redemption that we were unable to accomplish. He then rose bodily from the
grave and He is available today to provide forgiveness, healing, deliverance
and restoration according to His time and will for all men as we call upon Him.

Isaiah 53; Matthew 8:17; Luke 4:18-19

God the Holy Spirit entersman's heart at the moment of genuine repentance and surrender to Jesus.

This is our salvation experience that we cannot achieve apart of God’s divine call and
work in our hearts, but there are many experiences through the filling of the
Holy Spirit yet to occur in the believer's life. Also the gifts of the Holy
Spirit should have open and free expression in the context of order and edification
of others.

Ephesians 1:13-14; 4:30; 2 Cor.1:20-22; 5:1-5; John 1:10-12; 3:3-8; Ephesians 5:17-21; 1 Cor. 12:4ff

Man is a sinner by nature andby choice and is in need of God's work of salvation only found

through faith in Jesus Christ to be in right relationship with God. Apart from this “born-again”
experience no one will ever see or experience eternity in heaven but will only
face eternal condemnation as Jesus told us many times in the Gospels. This work
of salvation is God's work in man and not man's work for God. Man cannot add to
or take away from God's work in his heart.

Romans 5:12ff; Ephesians 2:1-10

That every believer needs to be involved in a one-on-one discipleship process where
they themselves are becoming disciple-makers

Matthew 28:18-20; 2 Timothy 2:2

Being in the will of God for your life is very important. It must be clearly
understood that being in the will of God does not mean that the Christian life
will be easy or that trouble and hardships will not come. Neither does it mean
that we will obtain all the treasures of this world. All the Apostles of Christ
died in physical poverty and many experienced horrible deaths. Suffering in
this present life is a part of living for Christ even as many saints of old
suffered for being in the will of God.

Romans8:18; 2 Timothy 3:12; 2 Corinthians 4:7-12; 11::23-28; James 1:2-4; 1 Peter
4:12-19

Learning to love God and other people are paramount in the Christian walk and will be

stimulated and maintained through regular Bible study, prayer, worship, stewardship,evangelism, Christian service and fellowship. These are essential Christiandisciplines for each believer's life. Man's spiritual growth and development isa cooperative effort between himself and God, which is basically, man properlyresponding to God's continual work in his heart.

Matthew 22:34-40; John 15:12-17;1 Cor. 13:1-8; 1 Peter 4:8

Living and walking in the Fear of God is second in importance to loving God and
others. The 7 features of the Fear of God should become the focus of every
believer in their working out of their salvation in fear and trembling. In
other words, spending time and effort in developing and maintain these features
must be a priority in the Christian’s life.

Psalm 112:1 and Philippians 2:12-13

Giving tithes and offerings are important and away of demonstrating our love for God and our trust in His provision for our
lives.

Genesis 14:16-20; 28:22 Malachi3:8-12; Galatians 6:6-10; 2 Corinthians 9:7; Luke 6:38; Matthew 23:23.

There are two essential ordinancesto be practiced in the church. One is baptism

(and as the Greek word clearly means is done by full immersion), which is a

one-time experience of obedience on the part of every person who has

trusted in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. There isno saving or cleansing power in the waters of baptism, it is an actiondemonstrating a person’s faith which they already have expressed to beborn-again. The second ordinance is communion or what some people refer to asthe “Lords Supper.” This is to be observed by every believer on a regular basisto remember the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ as well as areflecting on our personal walk with Christ for renewal and recommitment to Jesus Christ.

Matthew 28:19; Acts 2:38;8:12,38; 9:10; 10:47,48; 16:33; 18:8 … baptism

Matthew 26:26-28; Luke 22:19-20; 1Corinthians 10:16; 11:24-31 … communion

Jesus Christ will return asecond time as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. When He returns, He will
rapture His church, judge the living and the dead and establish His eternal
kingdom.
