Clear Vision of the Church

and Its Purpose for Being the Church

Vision is crucial for the people of God. It is through vision that we know and stay aware of who we are, why we are here, and where we are going. Without vision, a church will end up in a maintenance program of maintaining. This results in a church going nowhere

As God's people, we need vision. We need to see the greatness of God but not simply for our own personal blessing. We need to see the world as God sees it and where our responsibilities lie as members of the body of Christ. This means a vision for every member ministry, and what ministry consists of in biblical terms.

 

Following after God.

We begin by making God the number one priority and seeking to walk with Him in honest fellowship through the ministry of the indwelling Spirit of God. Following after God means just that we can not sit still and wait on him we must be ever moving toward him both spiritually and biblically.

 

Commitment to God and to the Great Commission which shows the Stewardship of All We Are

To truly know God is to love God, and to love God is to be committed to Him and His purposes. It is to live with a view when we will be forever in His glorious presence. When this is not kept in focus in the ministry of a church, the people will naturally withhold their lives. Here are some scriptural examples Matt. 22:36-40; 6:19-24; Rom. 12:1-2; 2 Cor. 4:16-18 To love is to know love, to be served one must know how to be a servant. To be Christ like one must truly understand Christ.
