Who We Are...

Dennis & Kimberly Dickson

We are builders....inside and outward....

"I have come that they may have life (ZOE) and that more abundantly." John 10:10 - Jesus of Nazareth

For we are his workmanship created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:10

Now we are ambassadors for Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them, and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 2 Corinthians 5:20

God's Holy Inspired Scriptures, our Bible, His Word shows us who we are:

In Jesus... WE ARE:

New Creations
Reconciled By His Cross
Adopted into His Eternal Family
Workers Together with God
Forgivers as Christ Forgives
The Sheep of His Pasture
Brothers and Sisters in the Faith Given to Us
Members of God's Household
Fellow Citizens in God's Kingdom
Kings and Priests unto our God

In Jesus... WE HAVE:

Hope of Eternal Life
Hope of Glory
Hope of Resurrection
Heavenly Inheritance

Our Calling and Mission...

WE ARE: the "Ekklesia - Called by God"

WE are Called out from this World by God into His Kingdom.
WE are Called into the Body of Christ.
WE are Called into the End Time Harvest of Souls.

And Jesus came and spoke to them saying,

"All authority has been given unto me in HEAVEN and on EARTH."

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo I AM with you always even to the end of the age. Amen." Matthew 28:18-20

"The best interpreter of a book is the one who writes it. The Holy Spirt wrote the scriptures. Go to Him to get their meaning, and you will not be misled." Charles Haddon Spurgeon - "Prince of Preachers" 1834-1892 London

Governmental Structure of Cody Life

The New Testament documents the fulfillment of Messianic Prophecies and the Genesis of the Body of Christ - Foundation of The Church.

We see the model, the framework of how the original church operated and functioned under the oversight of Jesus Christ.

Jesus chose, called, trained disciples and the Holy spirit anointed them as He did Jesus Christ to serve the Kingdom and those who accepted Jesus Christ.

These people called out by the Lord, were evangelized, established, discipled and multiplied their faith that works through the love of God.

The model of the biblical Church remains the same: People respond to the Gospel, become believers, recognize the authority of the inspired scriptures, and incorporate into the Body of Christ.

The government of His Church remains the same: Jesus calls his workers that lead, shepherd, teach, oversee, encourage, and correct if needed.

Jesus Christ, Messiah of Israel, the Head of the Church successfully finished the work of redemption providing salvation and citizenship to all nations.

He personally continues his work through the office of the Holy Spirit calling people to personal salvation and fellowship.

Jesus still calls His workers, anoints them, and sends them into the Harvest.

Clearly the New Testament documents that qualified persons were chosen to assist Jesus' work to lead, teach, equip and shepherd His Churhc.

The Apostle Paul documents Ephesians 4:11 "And he (Jesus Christ) gave some apostles; and some prophets; and some evangelits; and some pastors and teachers.

For the perfecting(maturing) of the saints (ecclesia-Church) for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.

Til we all come into the unity of the faith,...the Knowledge of the Son of God...the fulness of Christ."
