2. TO
RAISE AND ESTABLISH MODEL NEW TESTAMENT CHURCHES
It is the vision of the Christ Chapel Ministries
to multiply the ministry in every part of the
world in fulfillment of the great commission.
A new testament church is a church that manifests
all the features of the pattern of the church
Christ modeled in the scriptures and fulfills
all the purposes of Christ for the setting up
of the church namely:
A. OBEDIENCE TO THE GREAT COMMANDMENT
“Thou
shall love the Lord thy God with all your heart
and with all your soul and with all your mind…Love
your neighbor as yourself…all the Law
and the Prophets hang on these two commandments” (Matthew
22:37-40)
B. OBEDIENCE TO THE GREAT COMMISSION
“Go
and make disciples of all nations, Baptizing
Them in the name of the Father and
of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching
them to obey everything I have commanded
you.” (Matthew 28:19-20)
We believe that a New Testament church is one
that creates capacity and encouragement for growth;
spiritual, psychological, physical and social
for its members. It should be able to grow to
its maximum largest possible size and yet maintain
a healthy atmosphere where the following characteristics
are amply manifested:
- Teaching
of sound doctrine
- Holy
Ghost Filled, Fruits and Gifts of the Spirit
expressed
- Experiencing
meaningful Fellowship
- Breaking
of Bread
- Commitment
to effectual fasting and prayers
- Experience
of vibrant Worship
- Producing
strong committed and stable Christians
- Encouraging
the living of a Holy and Christ-like life
- Equipping
members to do the work of the Ministry
- Provision
of opportunity for the operation of each member's
gifts, talent and Ministries
- Expression
of team Ministry
- Bringing
liberty to the oppressed
- Building
strong healthy families
- Efficient
and effective systems of Government and administration
- Financially
self sustaining
