Statement of Faith
Global Disciples serves to connect and facilitate cooperation within the global Body of Christ among clusters of churches that are engaged in discipleship, mission, and leadership training ministries and share our commitment to:
- Glorify God, the Creator and eternal Lord of the universe;
- Exalt the only Savior and risen Lord Jesus Christ, God's Son;
- Rely on the Holy Spirit to teach, convict, comfort and empower;
- Accept the Bible as the divinely inspired, authoritative Word of God;
- Demonstrate love for those in the church, the Body of Christ;
- Show love for those without Christ through lives of compassionate service, righteous living, and evangelism;
- Pray and work diligently to see the Gospel spread to all peoples in anticipation of the glorious return of the Lord Jesus Christ.
As grateful recipients of God's grace we always seek to act justly, to love mercy and to walk humbly with our God (Micah 6:8). In each area of responsibility it will be our goal to seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Our theological understanding flows within the believers' church tradition and we embrace the Lausanne Covenant and the Manila Manifesto.
"For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ our Lord." I Corinthians 3:11
