VISION
We have been given the job through the Holy Spirit, to impact every person that enters Peoples Baptist Church Full Gospel Ministries with the Gospel of Salvation, Righteousness, Holiness and Sanctified living for God's will and purpose. "In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will."
Ephesians 1:11 KJV
We will feed the homeless and the poor; clothe the naked, visit the sick and shut-in raising them up through the power of God's words. "And the prayer of faith shall save the sick and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him."
James 5:15 KJV
The ministry will through the power of God bless our brothers and sisters over seas by impacting lives everywhere as led by the Holy Spirit. "Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature."
Mark 16:15 KJV
This ministry will set-up provisions for its own members as directed by the Holy Spirit according to the written Word of God. "But if any provide not for his own, and especially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel."
I Timothy 5:8 KJV
We will teach and train ministers and helpers of the Gospel through the Holy Spirit to have a strong foundation in the Word, ensuring God's will be done anywhere in the world. "And some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of the ministry, for the edifying the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ."
Ephesians 4:11,12 NKJV
We will baptize any born again believers and send them to any bible believing church of their choice. "Go ye, therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the son, and of the Holy Spirit."
Matthew 28:19 KJV
We believe in giving according to the Gospel. Therefore, this church will be a tithing and offering giving church. "Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it."
Malachi 3:10 KJV
We will not join or become partners with any organization that will not follow or believe the Bible and God's instructions for sanctified living. "Be not carried about with various and strange doctrines..."
Hebrews 13:9 KJV
Our church will minister to the whole person their natural needs as well as their spiritual needs. We will create to the best of our ability a resource listing for jobs, food, clothing, shelter and any other need to help our brothers and sisters. "For I was hungry, and ye gave me food; I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink; I was a stranger, and ye took me in; Naked, and ye clothed me; I was sick, and ye visited me; I was in prison, and ye came unto me."
Matthew 25:35,36 KJV
We will teach and preach the truth as the Holy Spirit teaches us not adding to or taking away. We will go out and compel our brothers and sisters to come unto salvation with love and prayer using the word of God and His wisdom. "Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."
2 Timothy 2:15 NKJV
