Mission Statement To represent and accomplish God’s will globally as His Royal Priesthood. Gather the body of Christ to work as one body with the same goals; to destroy the work of the enemy locally and globally, putting an end to the needless suffering of believers and non-believers. To help each in the body understand who they are in Christ, their position in the body, their calling, purpose and gifts. To equip the saints for the work of the ministry and help the body understand that the body has been given all power and authority in heaven and earth. To send those equipped and trained globally do demonstrate God’s will to all on earth.

To Destroy the Work of the Enemy Starvation: Today each day some 10,536 people starve to death. Homelessness: Today more than 30 million are homeless for a variety of reasons, not because of themselves. Drug Abuse: Today 1 in 25 are addicted to drugs. Reduce Crime: Crime affects 1 of every 7 people. More laws and stronger penalties do not work. Reduce the division and schisms in the body.
Understand Why All of this Happens Bad Beliefs NNot our Problem, Government, God, etc. PProblem Too Big TToo Busy MMust be God’s Will JJesus will deal with it when He comes again LLeave it to Jesus, He is in control IIf God wants Problems resolved He will tell me to do something. I am waiting on God Bad Beliefs or Good Beliefs, (Fruit) Will Always Bring Fruit After It's Own kind!
Available Options Do Nothing, Hope and Pray it Gets Better. Know that Doing Little or Nothing will probably Continue to Bring the same Result. Do Some Self Examination, Look at Beliefs and Where they came From and learn to do things the way Jesus did them as He is our example. Take Responsibility for what is Happening or not Happening. The Body Taking Responsibility is Difficult, as it Requires We Live by Faith. Pool Resources: Learn to Work Together as Originally Intended, One Body with Many Parts.
Working Together as One Body! There is power in agreement and unity! We can do all things through Christ (head and body) and deal with all needs! CChrist: Jesus is the head and we, His church are the Body. His body is broken to care for others. Love for others comes from being broken and forgiven. TThe Body Determines the Future by What We Do, or Do Not Do! WWe Can Make a Difference by Working Together. TThrough love and unity everything can change. It is His will. As we change it influences others.
Goals & Objectives Gather the body globally to work as one body. Build each member of the body. The body is as strong as the weakest member. Help each understand their purpose and gifts. Equip the saints for the work of the ministry and train believers for the work. Send those called and help support their ministry until established. They become established by gathering believers who will support His work.
His Plan: Scripture tells us: We are to exhort one another daily in our Holy Calling. We are to forgive one another, because we have been given the power to forgive. In forgiveness (love) and unity we find the power of God to deal with all needs and problems. We are to pray for one another and each others purpose in ministry. We are to support one another’s ministry. We all understand it for the most part! The question is, “ do we have the will to do it?” It is God’s will for the body and our obedience to do it! We either are doing it or not!
Requirements to bring Change: 1) Ask yourself and God what is His will, not just for you, but the body? Accept Responsibility for what is happening. Define Salvation. Without faith we cannot please Him. Faith without works is dead. Moving in faith brings love and unity. Seek Him, His presence and His will, not just for you, but the body and be willing to do it. Understand that if we are of God then we should have His heart, which is His Spirit. He cares more for people than Himself. Either we are like Him or not. It is salvation to be like Him. Submit to one another as it is pleasing to God. Tithe: Be resolved to build the body, each member, so each can stand strong! Not buildings. “Through the death and resurrection of Jesus He gave us all the tools, (His likeness, power and all Spiritual blessing), The Rest IS UP TO US!” We either find reasons to do it or find reasons not to do it!
Risks & Rewards Risks – God’s Words may not be true and as a result nothing will change! Tasting His Truth and Goodness – Either we have or have not. If not, give Him your life and things will change, so you will know His Goodness! Rewards – It will turn things around, end many of the problems, not only for us, but the sake of our children (curses or blessings effect several generations), because unless things change what kind of place will this be if things get worse?
Key Issues God’s Ways or Man’s Ways It appears we have tried everything except God’s ways in His Covenants, Promises and Commandments. We have either kept His commandments or not. Scripture tells us if we love Him, we will keep His Commandments. How His Church Grows “They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teachings and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer… Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.” Acts 2:42-47 A House or the Body, Divided Cannot Stand To end division and schism’s will take His ministry; The five-fold gift ministry and His people accepting it. His ministry equips the saints and so they would not be tossed to and fro by every wind of doctrine, which is what causes the division.
