In Summary, The Scriptures Call for Every One to Become...
Converted, Fully Trained, and Completely Mature in Christ:
Matthew 18:3 - "Truly I [Jesus] say to you, unless you are Converted and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven."
Proverbs 22:6 - "Train up [each] child [of God] in The Way he should go; Even when he is old he will not depart from it" (Luke 6:40 "Fully Trained")!
Ephesians 4:12-13 - Equip the saints, God's children, for the work of service, through the training up of the body - Christ's Church; until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, To Be a Mature Man - How Mature? to the measure of the stature which belongs to the Fullness of Christ!!!
The Way
Christ's Church is called by several appropriate names throughout the Bible; specifically, it is identified and named "The Way" in the New Testament... (Acts 9:2, 18:26, 19:9, 24:14 & 22)
Whose Way-What Way? "The Way of God" Acts 18:26; Jesus' Way as the Perfect Example of The Way (john 14:6); The Way of the Lord (Genesis 18:19 that God chose Abraham to "keep" and command him to teach all others...
Specifically, The Process of The Way is explained in detail by Father God in Proverbs 1-9 and Deuteronomy 6:1-9. The Way is commanded throughout the Bible. The Way is summarized by Jesus in His Matthew 4:4 Proverb as Living daily by God's every biblical Word results in living forever- being saved!
The SGVCC is in fellowship with all Churches and Christians who are Walking in The Way...
The Set Apart Church
We have received many knocks on the door and been told those knocking are the true church because they are 100% right in their church teaching. Does this sound Familiar? Smile...
We of the SGVCC do not know and are not 100% right in all we do and teach. We are Bible biblical learner-doers (the best translation of what the word disciple means). We Practice John 8:31-32, " so Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, "If you continue in My Word, then you are truly disciples [ongoing learner-doers] of mine; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.''
We have many answers-- and what we do not know or are not sure of-- we go back to the Lord and His Word and grow in our understanding and practice daily. This is Christ's Only Way! All we are sure of, we are willing to rethink and look again, and study out will all who come our same Way. We respect all others and their words and are willing to learn from them as long as they share with us from the bible.
Come join us on our Great Spiritual Adventure of The Way, be part of us, help us strengthen Our Way as Jesus' Way...
