in
the virgin birth. (Matt. 1:23)
in water baptism. (Matt. 28:19, Acts
2:38)
in the baptism of the Holy Spirit. (Acts
1:5, 2:1)
in the fruit and the gifts of the Spirit. (Gal.

in the five-fold ministry as the government of God for His

the
Kingdom of God is the primary focus seen in scripture and
man’s role in that
Kingdom, hence empire building and man made edifices are detrimental
and contrary to God’s Kingdom. (Matt.
6:31-33, Matt 16:25-28)
the true church is a ruling and reigning church made up of
common people called out to establish the Kingdom of God upon
the earth. (Rev 5:9-10, Matt 16:17-19)
the church is to conduct spiritual warfare. (Eph.
6)
the kingdom is present tense as well as future and the future
age is breaking into the present age, revealing an unfolding
revelation.
(Matt 4:2, 3:17, 6:10, 11:12, 13:1-52, Acts 3:19-21)
in the establishment of the Tabernacle of David as the pattern
for worship, intercession and reigning.(Harps, Bowls, Crowns)
(Amos 9, Acts 15, Rev 5:8-10)
proper prophetic and spiritual flow is essential to be expressed
in worship by outward displays of liberty, and manifestations
of the Spirit. (Gen 1:2, 1 Cor 14)

Ministry Philosophy
The five fold offices are to govern the Ekklesia (church) by
promoting growth,
facilitate equipping and duplication, and multiplication.
Spiritual fathering is the true biblical basis for spiritual
discipleship.
Every Believer is to be equipped as an able bodied minister
and is to do the work of the ministry.
All true ministry comes out of the place of overflow from our
personal relationship
with the Lord.
All members are expected to participate in the ministry of a
local body and in
ministry to the Lord, by prayer, worship, tithing, time, and
support of the local
vision.
As we focus on intimacy with God, all other things will take
proper placement in our lives.
All Believers are expected to live a separated, sanctified,
and holy life and to
embrace the doctrines of Christ fully.
Authority comes to Believers by them knowing their rights and
staying accountable, responsible and submitted to leadership.
Leaders are always chosen by faithfulness, proven through their
walk, reflecting
spiritual maturity, overall commitment, proven abilities and
sacrifices, aligning with scriptural precedents.
