A Ministry, builded on God's Kingdom Concept
Now when we say Kingdom, or when we read of the Kingdom of God,
the Kingdom of Heaven, there is a concept, and abstract idea
that you perveive in your mind,
so let's be clear from the start and get an understanding
that the Kingdom of God the Kingdom of Heaven is not a religion
Understanding this Ministry
If you're going to understand the Ministry of Kfec...
You would first have to understand the concept of the word Ministry
I've learned under the Legacy of Dr. Myles Munroe that there is nothing as
powerful as a Concept, and nothing more dangerous than a Misconception.
For too long we, you, me have been living under a misconception,
when it comes to the will of God for man on Earth.
The word Ministry doesn't mean religion, the word Ministry doesn't mean denomination,
the word Ministry doesn't means a building with the word Church on it,
It's not a title, it doesn't mean Reverend, Pastor, Prophets,
Teacher, Evangelists, Apostles, Bishop, Deacon,
in fact the word Ministry is a action word it is something that you do.
The word Ministry simply means to serve, to train and equip, to build up,
numerically and spiritually, spiritual maturity, to goveron.
This wourd ministry comes from the Greek word Diakonia, it's a noun used 32 times in
the New Testament variously translated as ministry in Eph. 4:12
For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry,
(diakonia) for the edifying of the body of Christ.
v11... And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets: and some
evangelists; and some, pastor and teachers:
v12... For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry,
(diakonia) for the edifying of the body of Christ.
v13... Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge
of the Son of God, unto a perfect man,
unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ:
v14...That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and
carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of
men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
v15... But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things,
which is the head, even Christ:
v16... From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by
that which every joint supplieth according to the effectual working
in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the
edifying of itself in love.
Understanding what this Ministry is not
1. We're not a Religion, What's that ?
It's the attempt of human beings trying to please God according to their own ideas
"There are many devices (plans, idea, invention) in a man's heart (mind);
nevertheless the counsel (purpose, will) of the Lord shall stand."
Prov.19:21
Religion is a unclean spirit, control by a system that keep the people of
God divided it's constructed by human beings and not by Christ.
2. We're not a Denomination, what's that ?
A denomination is a subgroup within a religion under a common name,
tradition, and identity. It's self government over a territory, It's self control,
it's self independently, It's all about self and not about God.
"There is a way which seemeth right unto a man,
but the end thereof are the ways of death."
Prov.14:12
3. We're not Non-denominational, What's that ?
A religious organization which does not necessarily align its mission
and teaching to an established denomination.
It allows the church to govern themselves without interference from the
policies of a regional, national, or multinational organization,
in regards to budgets, memberships, formal standards, and public image,
in addition there are some religious bodies that consciously
reject the idea of a denomination structure as a matter of doctrine.
All denominations that make up (the Body of Christ (Christianity)
profess that their religion is based on Jesus Christ. Some claim Him
as their founder and say that their teachings are based on what
He taught and said and did over 2,000 years ago.
But, sadly to say, that there are many denominations who
doctrines where mainstream Christianity ignores or actually
rejects the teachings of Jesus Christ.
Christianity accept the man Jesus but not His message
4. We're not a Building with the word Church on it.
But a Ministry that serve the Community, we're the Agents, Ambassadors
of God's Government in His Kingdom the Ekklesia. Jesus wasn't talking about
building a building He was talking about building a Community and re-establishing
His Ekklesia, His Kingdom, His Government in the heart of man.
Please bear with me there is so much I like to unpack,
We're laboring against at least 4 centuries of wrong thinking
based on a misconception
