Ministry Matters

My primary purpose is to secure as much glory for Jesus Christ by equipping and encouraging His saints to aspire to greatness in the Kingdom of God and to obtain as much treasure in Heaven as possible (2 Corinthians 11:2; 1 Corinthians 7:35; Matthew 6:19-34; Colossians 3:1-4; 1 John 2:15-17).

As deliberately as possible, everything I believe about "Life, the Universe and Everything," I have sought to base only on Scripture.  All the beliefs I've grown up with from church and parents and pastors and society, as many as I can recognize, I have determined to hold up to the Scriptures and evaluate as carefully as possible to discern their truth.  What I can see taught consistently throughout the Scriptures, I have retained; what was challenged by Scripture, I held loosely or laid aside, depending on the degree to which Scripture either didn't confirm or outright denied.

The end times offer no end of fascination for the believer.  Since the return of Christ to the right hand of God, believers have longed to understand how things would play out when Christ returned to reign.

On the topic of growing a fellowship in maturity, I realized there were about five steps to losing a church or fellowship for Christ.  I list them here.
