THE NATURE OF THE CHURCH, Where do we get our idea of what the Church is to be? Do we get our views from what unbelievers expect of us? Do we get our ideas from what various religious commentators suggest? Are our concepts of what the Church is to be shaped by traditions? Or do we get our understanding of the Church from what God says? Whatever view we have in regard to the Church will shape how we relate to the present world. We must be sure that the traditional views that we have held are really those views which God sets forth....Our mission is to spread the gospel of Jesus and to establish and operate churches and printed and media outreaches. We establish churches on mission fields, in homes, in cities, and produce moral/spiritual teaching materials on CD/DVD and in published literature by Sunday School, Study Topics, Subjects on Biblical Doctrines, Life Series, etc. We provide a Bible College on line with a degree offered. We do many large scale media outreaches and provide materials and services not freely available to those outside the church...WE DO NETWORKING IN MINISTRY! CONTACT US! Bishop J. L. Payne, Son of the Church!
