A church’s vision addresses the future by creating a clear picture of what we desire tomorrow to look like. Our vision for a vibrant 21st century church is briefly outlined below in our core values. These values paint our vision for tomorrow.
We believe that Christ is the head of the church. Therefore, we will exalt the Lord Jesus Christ to the highest in our worship, teaching, preaching, and ministry. He is the author of our salvation and the focus of our faith. Scripture says putting Him at the center of all we do pleases the Father.
We desire to be a church with increasing passion to experience the fullness of the Holy Spirit, expressed in the way we live and do ministry, individually and corporately.
We believe that Bible-based teaching and preaching honor God and edify people. We also believe that our ministry should reflect the highest commitment to the integrity of interpreting biblical truth and applying it.
We believe that being fully Christ centered and worshipping on the Sabbath are not in conflict. The Sabbath has never been more relevant than it is in today’s world, filled with weary people.
We believe that the kingdom of God extends beyond our denomination, that we are only a small part of the body of Christ, and that we have a legitimate place within, and responsibility to, the rest of the Christian community.
We believe that worship is a primary means by which we express our love for the Lord and that it should be a priority of the church. Spiritual passion in worshipping the Lord agrees with Scripture and demonstrates our deepening relationship with Him.
We believe that genuine love for the Lord will be transformed into ministry to others. Reaching out to the world through compassionate service honors the Lord and points people to Him.
We believe that lost people matter to God, that the church has a mandate to evangelize, that each member has a role in that process, and that world conditions call us to be aggressive about winning the lost.
We believe that a strong commitment to Christ calls us to a strong commitment to His church body. Building up the church through fellowship and through understanding, developing, and exercising our spiritual gifts is important.
We believe that the goal of faith is to be conformed to the image of Christ, which happens best through the process of mentoring and discipleship. A healthy church is the result of the healthy spiritual development of individual believers.
The Church of God (Seventh Day) is a fellowship of believers in Jesus Christ. We are bound together by, and find our identity in, our commitment to the written Word of God as our sole authority for belief and practice, our distinct doctrines, and our commitment to one another as members and churches of the General Conference.
Our mission is to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ, introduce others to the Lord, teach them to obey His Word, and nurture spiritual growth in all believers.
The purpose of the General Conference is to provide training, resources, and materials to assist congregations and members in accomplishing the mission.
