Church (Faith) Mountain
In the West, Christianity is under attack and the concept of God is being rejected more than ever. We believe that the Church must revive its previously strong influence on Western society, expanding the Kingdom of God by spreading knowledge of the love and Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Church is tasked with expanding His message through ministerial efforts in our nation, and across the world. 1
In order to impact the culture for Jesus, it is necessary to understand Biblical principles. Through Biblical teaching and and studying God’s word, Christians become equipped to “Fight the good fight of faith (in the conflict with evil)” 1 Tim 6:12 Amp. In addition, we are commanded in Ephesians 6:10-11 NKJV to “…be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the full armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.” Thus, we will be prepared to deal with the spiritual warfare of this world. 1 copied with permission from The Truth and Liberty Coalition
