Charis Ministry Center is a non-profit outreach
dedicated to strengthening the Body of Jesus Christ through the teaching,
equipping and training ministry. Charis Ministry Center is a "bridge-builder,"
helping to forge healthy bonds among all segments of the Body of Christ. We are
recognized for our balance in preaching the Word, avoiding extremes while not
diluting or compromising the demands of truth. Charis Ministry Center purpose heart
is to bring unity across all people given us an open door to minister in all
kinds of settings.
Our mission statement is believe that every
believer is invited into God's mission of redeeming and restoring His world. As
a church, we believe we are called to announce in both word and deed the good
news that Jesus is Lord, here and now! This happens through church planting,
global missions, and local outreach. We are committed to planting healthy local
churches around Latin America. As the Lord sends us leaders, our goal is to pay
attention to God's work in their lives and to cooperate with it. We take
seriously the call to raise them up and send them out for the sake of the
world, not holding them back for our own sake.
The Kingdom of God is the essence of the
Church’s message and life. We are called to the Kingdom’s life and power in the
present, while still anticipating its final fullness and consummation in the
future. This brief study is intended for practical application and offered in
the hope that it will inspire the reader to seek deeper insight and a
full-orbed perspective on the Kingdom of God.
Luke 17:20-21 “The kingdom of God does not come with observation; nor will they say,
‘See here!’ or ‘See there!’ For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you.”
Foundational to New Testament truth is that the
Kingdom of God is the spiritual reality and dynamic available to each person
who receives Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. To receive Him—the King—is to
receive His kingly rule, not only in your life and over your affairs, but
through your life and by your service and love. “The kingdom of God is within
you,” Jesus said. The significance of
this is that it signals a restoration—a wonderful potential for each
believer—reinstating something of the “rulership” (dominion) originally intended
for humankind (see Gen. 2:26, 28). It is
what the Apostle Paul is describing as our “reigning in life through Christ
Jesus” (Rom. 5:17, 21).
