All Christians are ministers and responsible for ministry. Ministry is not only the job of the pastor; rather, the pastors job is to equip the saints for the work of ministry.

The mission of the church is the great commission - to make disciples of all nations. This is the job of every Christian, as we are all ambassadors of Christ. [Mention church planting.}

The church is to maintain unity and a oneness that resembles the union of the three Persons of the Trinity. Jesus said a house divided cannot stand, so if a church hopes to endure, it must maintain unity in Christ.

The church is the community of Christ’s disciples (universal & local church) who belong to and participate in the Body of Christ (individually & communally active).

Jesus is the head of the church. It was founded by Him, it was given life through Him, and it must submit to Him. This means that the church does not exist for you. You exist for the church.

Jesus is the ultimate expression of God's love, sent to save, not to condemn. Through His sacrifice, He offers eternal life to all who believe, shining His light into a dark world. His love not only rescues us but transforms us, inviting us to step into the light and live as beloved children of God.

After the Fall of Adam & Eve, God's plan of salvation was revealed in His curse of the serpent. God would use the seed of Eve to bruise or crush the head of the serpent, who would only be able to bruise or strike the heal of Eve's descendant. Jesus is that descendant who defeats the devil.

On the Day of the Lord, Jesus will bring judgment to the wicked and healing to the righteous, who will leap for joy. Jesus first came as a helpless infant, but on that Day He'll return as a conquering king.

Jesus is more than just a man; He's God incarnate. His birth broke the laws of nature when the everlasting Lord entered into His creation. He is adored by the highest angels in heaven because He is the exact imprint of God.
