· We confess that the Lord has placed us in this fellowship for His
purpose to be fulfilled in us, acknowledging that this church will grow up
to be a part of that glorious Church which Jesus said He will build.
· We commit ourselves to the Pastors/Elders and other cell group leaders
and members in a relationship of love, honesty, loyalty, trust, respect,
acceptance, mutual submission and correction, so that we may grow together
as a local expression of the body of Christ.
· We promise to give priority to worship meetings, cell group gatherings
and other occasions for studying God’s word.
· We covenant that we shall deny ourselves and take up the cross as true
disciples and shall live under the Lordship of Christ so that every area
of our lives, personally, financially and materially and our behavior give
honor to the Lord Jesus Christ.
· We promise that we will constantly strive for the unity of the Spirit,
being prepared at all times to reconsider our individual interpretations
of the Scriptures in order to ensure the unity of Spirit in love, being
ready to flow with the directions and guidance through the brothers in
leadership in the church. At the same time we commit ourselves to allowing
the Spirit to lead us into all truth and being ready to submit ourselves
to the Word of God at all times.
· We promise to seek to be constantly filled with the Holy Ghost and seek
to be led by the Spirit ; being ready at all times to allow the Spirit to
operate His gifts through us as He wishes.
· We covenant to lay aside our individual interests for the sake of the
building up of the Body of Christ and seek at every stage that God may be
glorified.
· We covenant that we shall not gossip or slander or have any destructive
criticism about other members or church leaders but will stand with one
another to safe guard against any slander coming from outside.
· We promise to give ourselves supremely to our Lord and to labor together
in prayer and in work till we see the Lord build His Church in this city.
