For us it
means spreading the Good News of the Gospel.
Mainly that Jesus died on the cross that we might be free
from the death of sin and receive eternal salvation and eternal life. But
also, that Jesus was a social activist concerned about the lives of people here
on earth.
Yes! We believe the church should follow the
teaching and example of Jesus by itself seeking justice and fairness for His
people.
No! Particularly Black Churches and its leadership.
The only way most Black slave state and beyond churches could survive in the
culture of slavery and White supremacy, was to tolerate, cooperated, collaborate
and remain silent. The governing slave theology was Paul Biblical admonition
that slavery honor God bu being good t their slave masters. This slave survival
legacy has been passed down largely unchanged to the Black church of today.
Yes. The voice of the Black Church and its leadership is in
fact so pathetically silent that twenty (20) Black
churches on a two (2) block poor urban Black neighborhood would have little or no
consequence or relevance to the quality of the civic
life of its residents.
Inside the church; yes. However, their voices are barely audible outside the church building where it counts.
“The Battlefield for Our Lord” is all over the length and breath of our communities. But rarely do you see them there in sustained battle.
Almost everywhere the Devil is winning.
There are a few churches, religious and secular leaders who are willing to get on the battlefield
to confront and oppose the armada of Satan and his army of puppets. A determined few with the Lord can make a tremendous
difference Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Charged our nation even though vigorously opposed by much of the Black Church and the Ku Klux Klan.
Yes. We are an autonomous church, family related to the Church of God movement headquartered in Anderson, Indiana. We are also
part of the Eastern New York Assembly of Church of god Churches headquartered in Far Rockaway, Queens, NY.
