OUR PURPOSE: To worship, serve, obey and keep GOD’s Holy Commandments during our tenure on this earth (Exodus 20:1-17). Ecclesiastes 12:13 (KJV) proclaims this great truth – Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear GOD, and keep His commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. HALLELUJAH! The Ten Commandments teach us to give/relinquish our entire lives 100% to GOD for service – they teach denial of self, honor for parents and respect for others. If a person honors their parents they will automatically honor ad respect others. JESUS sums up the Ten Commandments in St. Matthew 22:36-40 (KJV) as HE answers this question – “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law? JESUS said to him, you shall love the LORD your GOD with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments hang all the law and the Prophets.” St Matthew 6:33 (KJV) JESUS proclaims this great truth – “But seek ye first the kingdom of GOD , and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” The Amplified Version says – “But seek (aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness (His way of doing and being right), and then all these things taken together will be given you besides.”

OUR MISSION : To do the will of GOD ( St. John 6:38 – GOD’s will is that all of mankind be saved). To obey GOD’s Command to “GO” and fulfill HIS Great Commission – to Evangelize and make disciples and fish for men all over the world beginning right where we are (St. Mark 16:15-18/St. Matthew 28:18-20 & Acts 1:8). It is our mission to equip and train the Saints for ministry (Ephesians 4:12).

MISSION STATEMENT

The Mission of “Evangelism Explosion Now” is to seek and save that which is lost with the “Passion” of JESUS CHRIST. To spread the gospel of JESUS CHRIST (which is His death, burial and resurrection – First Corinthians 15:1-4) throughout the world beginning in our own country the United States of America – at our own front door – in our communities, cites, townships and to the very ends of the earth (St. Mark 16:15-18/St.Matthew 28:18-20/Acts 1:8). To reach out to hurting people everywhere ministering to their physical, spiritual and emotional needs. Our goal is to mirror the ministry of JESUS CHRIST – as HE began HIS earthly ministry HE proclaimed this great truth to the world in St. Luke 4:18-19 (AV) – “The Spirit of the LORD is [upon] Me, because HE has anointed Me [the Anointed One, the Messiah] to preach the good news (the Gospel) to the poor; HE has sent Me to announce release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to send forth as delivered those who are oppressed [who are downtrodden, bruised, crushed, and broken down by calamity].to proclaim the accepted and acceptable year of the LORD [the day when salvation and the free favors of GOD profusely abound.” Evangelism Explosion Now” is a “truth-based” ministry – based on the fundamental truths of GOD’s Holy Word and empowered by HOLYSPIRIT through powerful personal and corporate intercessory prayer and fasting following the example set for us by JESUS CHRIST Himself and the New Testament Power Church that was born on the day of Pentecost as recorded in the Acts of the Apostles.

The Evangelical Church in America needs a mindset change – we know how to do Church! We have perfected preaching, teaching, singing, etc., and have implemented programs to support our new found religion- only to be absent of one thing – HOLY GHOST POWER and ANOINTING! GOD the HOLY GHOST has been completely programmed out of most evangelical churches in America today.

OUR VISION: “Harvest of One” – to evangelize the entire world sharing the life changing Gospel message of JESUS CHRIST (HIS death, burial and resurrection) one soul at a time beginning right at home. St. Luke 15:7 (KJV) – “I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over “One” sinner that repents, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.” WOW!

VISION

To resurrect a greater passion for personal and corporate intercessory Prayer within the BODY of CHRIST – the Church of the Living GOD to be empowered by HOLY GHOST for service in GOD’s Kingdom. To be “Truth” Seekers! JESUS proclaims in St. John 14:6 this great truth – “JESUS said to him, I am the “Way and the “Truth” and the “Life”; no one comes to the Father except by (through) Me.” To purpose in our hearts to be actively and personally involved with fulfilling GOD’s Great Commission ( St. Mark 16:15-18/St. Matthew 28:18-20/Acts 1:8) thereby becoming fishers of men (St. Matthew 4:18). To purpose in our hearts to train, teach and equip new believers for ministry – making disciples and fishing for men (Ephesians 4:12).

CHARGE TO THE SAINTS:

It is time for the Born Again Church to get back to “Bible Basics”. “Bible 101” is a requirement for all Saints – a prerequisite prior to advancement and growth within the Kingdom of GOD on earth.

INTRODUCTION TO BIBLE 101: Read your text book (Holy Scriptures/Bible) in its entirety- Old and New Testament – 66 total Books (39 OT & 27 NT). Then become a disciplined – avid student of the Word of GOD by studying the Holy Scriptures daily (Second Timothy 2:15). The Holy Scriptures are inspired (GOD-breathed Second Timothy 3:16), HOLY GHOST is the author (Second Peter 1:20-21), our daily guide ( St. John 16:12) and our teacher ( St. John 14:26). If HOLY GHOST’s role is that influential in our lives – then it would behoove us to get personally acquainted with HIM. Amen! We must biblically define the “Role of the GODHEAD (Father, Son and Holy Ghost).

ROLE OF THE GODHEAD: The GODHEAD or Trinity (the triune GOD manifested in “3” distinct personalities- GOD the Father, GOD the Son and GOD the Holy Ghost. The Holy Trinity is implied at creation (Genesis 1:1-3 & 26). The Holy Trinity is revealed – manifested on earth at the water baptism of JESUS CHRIST (St. Matthew 3:16).

PRAYER & FASTING: JESUS teaches us by example the importance of spending quality time in prayer daily with our Heavenly Father. JESUS proclaimed this great truth in St. Matthew 21:13 (AV) – “He said to them, the Scriptures says, My house shall be called a “House of Prayer”; but you have made it a den of robbers.” Isaiah 56:7 (KJV) – GOD’s Holy Word proclaims – “Even them will I bring to my Holy Mountain, and make them joyful in my House of Prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an House of Prayer for all people. There is a certain level of “Faith” that can only be attained through “Fasting” (St. Matthew 17:14-21).

This lifestyle change requires great discipline on our behalf – Discipline is not an easy road. As Born Again Believer’s – those who have genuinely repented and confessed their sins, those who have accepted and now confess JESUS CHRIST as Savior and Lord, those who have been washed in the precious Blood of the LAMB of GOD have passed from sinner to Saint. The Apostle Paul proclaims that all who are in CHRIST JESUS are brand spanking new creatures – new creations in CHRIST JESUS. Second Corinthians 5:17 (AV) – “Therefore if any person is [engrafted] in CHRIST (the Messiah he is a new creation (a new creature altogether); the old [previous moral and spiritual condition] has passed away. Behold, the fresh and new has come!”

PRODUCERS OF GOOD FRUIT: Born Again Believer’s should seek to produce good fruit ( St. John chapter 15). We should seek to possess the attributes outlined by JESUS during HIS famous Sermon on the Mount (St. Matthew chapter 5). We should also seek to become the nine fruits of HOLY SPIRIT in (Galatians chapter 5).

These are the characteristics of a changed life! Amen!
