STATEMENT OF FAITH
|
We believe in one God,
revealed to man in Trinitarian existence as God the Father, God the
Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
We believe in the revelation
of God, through the Son of God, incarnate in Jesus of Nazareth, totally
God and totally man, as recorded in the infallible Word of God.
We believe in the depravity of
man as a result of his rejection of God, thereby, producing the need for
salvation through the atoning death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus
Christ, wrought in the life of the believer by the Holy Spirit.

|
Christian Ministries provides the
opportunity for interaction with the gospel of Jesus Christ to enable
all men freedom in the grace of God.
|
Clarification of the Mission Statement
|
|
At any given moment of time, in the struggle
of life, man will live either in the power of Jesus Christ (the manifestation of
the grace of God) or in the perceived power of his own self (the
frustration of the grace of God). Life is never static. The
possibility of man moving from the manifestation of the grace of God to
the frustration of the grace of God and back to the manifestation of grace
of God can be as frequent as the number of the moments in a day (86,400).
Although most men are not that double-minded, the Word reveals, as well as
the testimony of one's life, that most men do move back and forth between
the manifestation and the frustration of the grace of God. Jesus
Christ is the only man that never frustrated the grace of His Father.
The following diagrams
represents a composite picture of the daily life of man. Like a
computer image, a picture, (which is made up of many thousands of pixels
[a minute spot] and although each distinct pixel can only be what it is,
they together form a composite picture when all are seen together), the following composite picture
of man's daily walk, which is also made up of many moments, can reflect
the life of the manifestation or the frustration of the grace of God in
our daily walk.
Thus, Christian Ministries exists solely to
help all men experience the fullness of the manifestation of Christ in
their life.
