What We Believe…
We believe that most Christians are not quite sure… what they believe. We believe that it’s all about Jesus… We believe that there are many that want to live their lives in service to Jesus… but don’t. We believe that faith has been watered down by teachings filled with half-truths, that tickles the ears. We believe that there is very poor example of how Jesus called us to live. We believe that their desire to serve is now hampered by their thinking… yielding to the flesh. We believe that the gospel is for sale and has for far too many, become a business… We believe that we have sat idle long enough… We believe that we have thrown money at the work before us and have not put our hands and backs to it. We believe that we fear the devil as much or more then we fear God We believe that too many are separated by unforgiveness and don’t know it. We believe that too many are separated by their lack of faith. We believe that too many are separated by justification and a lack of humility. We believe that too many are separated by their loveless desire to be right… self-righteous. We believe that too many are separated by back biting and evil reports. We believe that too many are separated by their failure to obey… rebels and worse… seditionist. We believe that too many are separated by their lust of the flesh… selfish love… for anything. We believe that too many are separated by loveless teachings… information with out the Spirit. We believe that too many are separated by religiosity… rituals, rites that gain comfort from repletion. We believe that too many are separated by an independent spirit… doing "My own thing". We believe that too many are separated. We believe that separation is death! We believe that some have not gone the second mile… while most did not complete the first. We believe that sacrifice is not a dirty word. We believe that most of us want the benefits of Jesus… but don’t want to pay the cost. We believe that we pray for what we should be doing and when it don’t happen, then we do less praying… We believe that God has created us for a purpose… not ours, His. We believe that that Jesus is in heaven and in us… at the same time. We believe that that Jesus is the Word… We believe that Jesus is the answer. We believe that Jesus is praying for us… right now! We believe that Jesus is enough… not what He gives us, but Him alone… and we are ready to serve Him. We believe that Jesus is love… We believe that Jesus is God. We believe that Jesus is our example and we are required to be like Him. We believe that faith works by love. We believe that the Spirit is in us and can over-come our every obstacle. We believe that the Holy Spirit works exclusively through those that are in the Kingdom. We believe that those who follow can only live by faith… to fulfil our calling, by pleasing Him. We believe that those who are called can hear His voice… and know His will, day by day. We believe that we need to pray more… and just sit before Him beholding His love… We believe that we are to live in expectation of His eminent return. We believe that the hour is late and the darkness of night comes… and we are to burn brighter, together. We believe that when Jesus taught us to pray "Our… father…" we are one with Him and each other. We believe that no difference of any kind should separate us… from serving in love. We believe that the gospel is a contract… binding us to each other… in His love… We believe that Jesus demonstrated how we are to live and we are required to do likewise. We believe that because we don’t work in unity we are not the body yet… and therefore not the bride… We believe that the bride is totality focused on Jesus… consumed… in His love. We believe that the bride is the body working together in love. We believe that the bride will be crying out in one voice "Come Lord Jesus!" We believe that we can be forgiven right now. We believe that those who have ears will respond We believe that we will all be accountable for what we’ve done and have failed to do. We believe that we need His mercy for our ingratitude… We believe that we need His mercy for our self-righteousness… We believe that we need His mercy for our stubborn selfishness… We believe that we need His mercy for our denial of the truth… We believe that we need His mercy for our muttering and murmuring… We believe that we need His mercy for our inaction… We believe that we need His mercy for our lack of enthusiasm… We believe that we need His mercy for our lack of faith… We believe that we need His mercy for our hardness of heart… We believe that we need His mercy for our lack of love… We believe that we need His mercy to be forgiven now… right now! We believe that we need to pray… right now! We believe that we need His love to consume us… forgive us! We believe that you have opportunity to respond and to change right now… We believe that those who have ears will respond We believe that the question is… what do you believe?
