We aim to promote a passion and love for Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit by our lives. As the greatest commandment is to love God – Matt 22:37-40.

We are to abide in His love and manifest presence through intimacy and releasing His unconditional love to all those around us. We seek to know the Lord more every day.

We seek to enter the Kingdom of God and abide in His Kingdom. Matthew 6:33; Acts 14:22

We see and measure our maturity and success by the following:

  • How much more clearly we can hear His voice – John 10:3-5

We seek His glory and Kingdom only; we do not seek to promote ourselves.

We focus on building everything through building strong relationships; first with God and then with each other.

We believe that each disciple needs to receive Father’s heart so they can walk as sons of God in the unity of love with One heart and inheriting all things. Ezekiel 11:19; 36:26,27; Rom 8:12-19; Jer 29:11; Rev 21:7

We aim to demonstrate the Fathers heart of love to each other and those we serve and interact with.

We aim to walk in humility by esteeming others better than ourselves.

We seek to be known in heaven not on earth. Therefore we will not promote our ministry or church but we seek to glorify Him.

We aim to walk in the Spirit of Elijah, which is the Spirit of godly sorrow that leads to repentance. Malachi 4:5-6; Galatians 3:28; 2 Corinthians 7:8-11

We aim to walk in the light at all times and being transparent and accountable to each other. 1 John1:5-9

We believe in submitting and being accountable to the fathers and leaders God has placed in our lives.

We believe in godly government as leaders, fathers are called to serve, love, teach, exhort, comfort and rebuke the family under their authority in order to keep unity and order in His house.

We support those who are feeding us spiritually and the weak, directly with our tithes and offerings as we should not mussel the ox (Gal6:6-10, 1 Corinthians 9:1-15).

All the saints needs should be met by and through His body. This especially includes the poor, orphans and widows who are among us (James 1:27; Isaiah 58).
