Our Vision of the Church
The New Testament knows only one Church. The only thing that divided the Church was geographical boundaries. The biblical pattern is the local church, which is expected to relate to or be under the spiritual oversight of an apostle or apostolic team (Eph 2:19-20). Bearing in mind that a local church comprises of all the congregation in a geographical boundary. What unity there would be when all churches are together under apostolic teams nation-wide ? When that happens, the Church will become of age and the gates of hell would no longer prevail.
Mission Statement
The vision of the New Covenant Church is to build city churches around the world. These churches are to be at least 1% of the local population. To bring every member into maturity in Christ. To foster deeper and meaningful fellowship. To encourage and work for the unity among all believers. To work in the community. To play a positive role in the life of the nation. To provide opportunity for service. To be actively involved in mission at home and abroad.
Membership
Membership of the church is open to all born again Christians with evidence of a changed life. The church presently has members in Europe, Africa and the USA.
The Four Modes of Operation
Discipleship
One to one follow-up and discipleship of every member of the church, using transferable material.
Cell Group
Small home groups that meet weekly for fellowship, prayer and evangelism. These groups grow and feed the church.
Congregation
Coming together on Sunday and mid-week services for worship and edification.
Celebration
Joint services of all our branches in a given area to celebrate Jesus and make a statement to the world.
What We BelieveCentral to our beliefs are:
(i) The divine inspiration and infallibility of the Holy Bible in all matters and conduct. (ll Tim.3:16, 2 Pet.1:21)
(ii) The Trinity of the Godhead and the unity of three persons (Father Son, Holy Ghost) therein (l John.5:7)
(iii) The utter depravity of the whole human nature and the guilt of all mankind since the fall through the deceit of the devil. Because of this, all people become subject to Gods wrath and condemnation (Romans.3:23)
(iv) The substitutionary atonement for sin through the blood of Jesus Christ, the incarnate son of God (Heb.9:14)
(v) The full salvation by grace through faith in Christ Jesus alone. Thus one is born again and becomes a child of God (Eph.2:8-9)
(vi) Subsequent empowerment of the born again believer by the Holy Spirit for service and victorious living (Acts.1:5.8, Acts.2:1-4)
