Church Now Core Values/Beliefs
These are the Principles that we agree to have all things in common with each other and will be used as a guide to ensure that we remain unified as we endeavor to accomplish God’s mission of His Church Now.
God’s word is final authority and we will endeavor to align our lives in accordance with and submission to the whole counsel of God’s Holy Bible.
Jesus the Christ of Nazareth is the way, the truth, and the life; no person can be in a relationship with God except through Him. Therefore, we will budget and organize to help people understand, know, and become a disciple of Jesus Christ.
God’s message of hope and love through the gift of His only son, Jesus the Christ of Nazareth, is a message for the world. Therefore, we will budget and organize to share this message always; to all people and in all places.
Every disciple of Jesus Christ has a responsibility to make disciples. This is best accomplished through environments of accountability within a community of disciples who are endeavoring to have all things in common.
We will submit to Jesus’ principles for life over our own personalities, all other people, places, or things. This means our disciple communities will organize their budgets, schedules, and efforts to bring good news to the poor, to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set free those who are oppressed, to comfort all who mourn, and to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God.
All Things Common - One's spiritual gifts have maximum impact when they are in support and submission to those within their immediate spiritual community of believers, and each of the communities are collectively in support and unity with their overall local church family and leadership. Jesus builds up this collective unity for the most effective empowerment of an individual's role within the body of Christ.
1 Corinthians 12:1-31 (CEB)
