    God is going to reach a lost world through the empowering of the Holy Spirit and His church. We depend on One and devote to building His church through the teaching of His Word, fellowship, communion and prayer.

Through the Body of Christ the world will come to see Christ. • The Church is the ...read more

He does this because, in each case, the way He introduces Himself is relevant to the situations of each church congregation and the message they need to heed.
