Our Church Story
The founder of the LWGC recieved the vision to fo ministry since
the year 2000 and started by prayers and fastings, doing one-one
evangelism and discipleship to the converts. It was not until 2014
that the Lord gave hime the burden to do a home cell fellowship
consisting him and his wife and daughter. With no time families in
the neighborhoods joined in and the fellowship grew bigger. During
this time God let him visit homes of those in need of prayers and
Deliverance and God added members daily to the ministry. A Sunday
service was started and the church grew in the Word and faith. The
grace of God and his presence gave the assurance and guarantee to
take the gospel forward that led to the opening of branches of the
church within and without the country.
WE EXIST TO:
-
To present to the lost the gospel message of salvation based on
faith in the shed blood of Jesus Christ and a true repentance
and conversion
-
To teach and nurture the believers toward a sanctified life and
to faithfulness by God's grace and through His Word
-
To evangelise communities and nations by boldly taking the
gospel to unreached areas
-
To show love to the needy through charitable services to fellow
believers and nonbelievers
OUR BELIEFS:
-
The Word of God
That the Bible is the Word of God, fully inspired and without
error in the original manuscripts, written under the inspiration
of the Holy Spirit, and that it has supreme authority in all
matters of faith and conduct
-
The Trinity
We believe that there is one living and true God, eternally
existing in three persons, that these are equal in every divine
perfection, and that they execute distinct but harmonious
offices in the work of creation, providence and redemption
-
God the Father
We believe that the Bible is the Word of God, fully inspired and
without error in the original manuscripts, written under the
inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and that it has supreme
authority in all matters of faith and conduct
-
Jesus Christ
We believe in Jesus Christ, God’s only begotten Son, conceived
by the Holy Spirit. We believe in His virgin birth, sinless
life, miracles and teachings. We believe in His substitutionary
atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension into heaven,
perpetual intercession for His people, and personal visible
return to earth
-
The Holy Spirit
We believe in the Holy Spirit who came forth from the Father and
Son to convict the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment,
and to regenerate, sanctify, and empower all who believe in
Jesus Christ. We believe that the Holy Spirit indwells every
believer in Christ, and that He is an abiding helper, teacher
and guide
-
Regeneration
We believe that all people are sinners by nature and by choice
and are, therefore, under condemnation. We believe that those
who repent of their sins and trust in Jesus Christ as Savior are
regenerated by the Holy Spirit
-
The Church
We believe in the universal church; a living spiritual body of
which Christ is the head and all regenerated persons are
members. We believe in the local church, consisting of a company
of believers in Jesus Christ, baptized on a credible confession
of faith, and associated for worship, work and fellowship. We
believe that God has laid upon the members of the local church
the primary task of giving the gospel of Jesus Christ to a lost
world
-
Christian Conduct
We believe that Christians should live for the glory of God and
the well-being of others; that their conduct should be blameless
before the world; that they should be faithful stewards of their
possessions; and that they should seek to realize for themselves
and others the full stature of maturity in Christ
-
The Ordinances
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ has committed two
ordinances to the local church: baptism and the Lord’s Supper.
We believe that Christian baptism is the immersion of a believer
in water into the name of the triune God. We believe that the
Lord’s Supper was instituted by Christ for commemoration of His
death. We believe that these two ordinances should be observed
and administered until the return of the Lord Jesus Christ
-
Religious Liberty
We believe that every human being has direct relations with God
and is responsible to God alone in all matters of faith; that
each church is independent and must be free from interference by
any ecclesiastical or political authority; that therefore Church
and State must be kept separate as having different functions,
each fulfilling its duties free from dictation or patronage of
the other
-
Church Cooperation
We believe that the local church can best promote the cause of
Jesus Christ by cooperating with one another in a denominational
organization. Such an organization, whether a regional or
district conference, exists and functions by the will of the
churches. Cooperation in a conference is voluntary and may be
terminated at any time. Churches may likewise cooperate with
interdenominational fellowships on a voluntary basis
-
The Last Things
We believe in the personal and visible return of the Lord Jesus
Christ to earth and the establishment of His kingdom. We believe
in the resurrection of the body, the final judgment, the eternal
felicity of the righteous, and the endless suffering of the
wicked
Vision of the church
To seek those who are lost in the world and bring them back to God
by sharing with them the gospel of Jesus Christ
Mission of the church
We exist to establish responsible disciples through teaching of
sound doctrine, relying on the leading of the Holy Spirit and
impacting the communities through changed lives
