Growing up

Our vision is to build an International, charismatic, contemporary and independent Ministry which primarily seeks to help believers work towards GROWING UP.

Growing Big

The vision we have will result in aggressive evangelism using all methods available, ministering on television, holding Power Crusade in the cities and nations of the world, and opening churches in other places where doors open or where we have the leading of the Lord. We involve all members of the congregation in Evangelism and see the church GROWING BIG.

Growing Together

Thirdly, to work towards reflecting the vision of an International Church by bringing men and women of all nations together under All Nations for Christ Baptist Church.
The societal values, needs and aspirations of every city, town, or village vary, but all humans have big needs for acceptance, to be appreciated and to be loved.
Particularly our churches continue to touch the lives of men and women through Heart Caring Fellowships, support groups, Family Life ministries and ministry to men, women, youth and children.

STATEMENT OF FAITH OF CHRIST TOTAL GOSPEL MINISTRIES INTERNATIONAL

1. We believe that Scripture of both the Old and the New Testament are given by the inspiration of God and are the only infallible rule of Christian faith, practice and conduct of life.

2. We believe in God – the Creator, Ruler and Judge of all, existing in a divine and incomprehensible Trinity of Persons, the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost each possessing all divine perfections and attributes.

3. We believe in the incarnation, death and redeeming work of the Son of God, and that Salvation attained only through repentance and faith in His Blood.

4. We believe in the necessity of radical change of heart and that this is affected through obedience to the truth and by the agencies of the Holy Ghost.

5. We believe that the law of love is the fulfillment of all other laws and obedience to it is the proper evidence of Salvation.

6. We believe in the Church as the pillar and ground of Truth with its own God ordained authority; and that credible evidence of a change of heart is an indispensable ground of admission to the privileges of the visible church.

7. We believe in a gospel of the supernatural and miraculous and that this gospe! must be preached to all men without fear or favour as the one and only means of Salvation.

8. We believe that the ordinances of water Baptism and the Lord’s Supper are of perpetual obligation in the Church, and that Baptism in Water should be by full immersion after confession of faith in Christ.

9. We believe that the Church is the mystical union of all those who have put their faith in the Blood of Jesus and have repented of their sins and exhibit a credible evidence of a change of heart regardless of colour, race, sex or geographical location.

10. We believe in the literal second advent of the Lord Jesus Christ; a future judgment, the endless bliss of the righteous and the endless misery of the wicked.

We believe in the Baptism of the Holy Ghost for the believers with the evidence of speaking with tongues.

OUR PURPOSE

As a church we believer that we are to fulfill the great Commission given to the Church by the Lord Jesus Christ in Matthew 28:19 and 20. and we hope to fulfill the Great Commission by reaching the unsaved and the unchurched.

In expanding cities, only growth and expansion glorifies God, we are therefore committed to a vision of growth and expansion in London and world wide. God wants us to be ‘A bridge over trouble waters’ to people who are in need.

The purposes of God for Christ Total Gospel Ministries (Int) are to mend broken lives, help people to come to God, restore their broken image and discover their positive self image in Christ. We are sensitive to the fact that things do not just happen, therefore we must work out our strategy and achieve the purposes of God.

Physically we accept these challenges because “where there is no vision the people perish”. (Pro. 29:18).

We would like to be known and referred to as The Church that cares:
Celebrating Jesus, Crucified and Risen
Articulating our faith in a contemporary society
Reaching out to the unchurched
Equipping believers to grow and serve
Sharing our resources to help others grow
The philosophy of ministry of the Christ Total Gospel Ministries Intl is indicated by the words which the Lord laid on the heart of the Senior Pastor which simply put is:
“Growing Up
Growing Big &
Growing Together”.
