Our Core Values

This Church is designed:

1. To obey the Great Commission which is God's vision for us, as the key goal of our life [Mt 28:18-20; Mt 24:14; Acts 20:24].
2. To be responsible for spreading the Gospel by starting a seed church in every major city, all over the nation and all over the world [Acts1:8].
3. To treat the Church with utmost respect as the central plan of God to achieve His eternal purpose [Eph 3:10].
4. To follow the will of God in doing that which is most beneficial for the Kingdom of God [Mk 8:34; 1 Jn 2:17b; Rom 12:2].
5. To invest our life in the local church where we are trained, corrected, disciplined and equipped to do the work of ministry.
6. To maintain a spirit of unity in essentials and allow room for differences in non-essentials [Eph 4:3].
7. To mobilise every member to serve the Lord fully with all kinds of giftings, talents and professions [Eph 4:16].
8. To be a full-time minister, one must first be a functioning minister by serving the Lord fully. Not all will be most effective by going full-time, but all should be willing!
