The Great Commission – The Great Commission is the 501 3c organization established in 1999. It is the umbrella for all the personally identified ministries on this site. We are involved in church planting, education, communications and outreach. Some places of outreach that would interest you are the state prisons, men and women discipleship, home groups and personal evangelism. Our commitment is to walk and do in the earth what the Lord Jesus has for us today in the now. We do not want to walk in front of Him or behind Him but in cadence with Him. We are open to assist you, our fellow laborers in Christ, in any way as the Lord leads.

Our Statement of Belief
1) The bible is the complete divine revelation of God, inspired by the Holy Spirit. (II Timothy 3:16, 17)
2) God is both one and triune. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit (II Corinthians 13:14)
3) The Son of God became incarnated as a man, Jesus, born of a virgin, that He might be our Redeemer, Savior and Lord. (Luke 1:30-35)
4) Jesus came as a complete man and He actually lived on this earth for over thirty years to make God the Father known to man. (John 6:30)
5) Jesus died on the cross for our sins and shed His blood for the accomplishment of our redemption. Thus, salvation is based on faith in Jesus Christ alone and not by any good works of our own. Matt 27:27-31,35, John 1:29, I Timothy 2:5, Eph.2:8,9)
6) Jesus, after being buried for three days, resurrected bodily from the dead and ascended to the heavens, and God made Him to be our Lord. (Luke 24:46)
7) After Christ’s Ascension, He poured out the Holy Spirit and baptized His chosen ones into one Body. The Holy Spirit operates today to convict sinners, to regenerate believers in Christ, to baptize them with power for service, and to indwell them for Christ to be their life in order to build up His Body. (Luke 24:49, Acts I:8, John 16:8)
8) At the end of this age Christ will come back to rapture His church (believers in Christ) to live with Him for eternity. (Thessalonians 4:16-18)
9) Now Christ lives in us, we are part of His Body and we are called to love one another. (Colossians I:26,27, I Corinthians 3:16, I Corinthians 12:13, 27, John 13:34, Romans 13:8)
10) Jesus has called His Body into service (Matt. 28:19,20)
