Our Mission and Vision
Restoration
Our Vision Is Based on Scriptures (Romans 5:1-2; Acts 2:38)
“Those who have the mind of Christ are able to discern spiritual things that the natural man (or the unbeliever) cannot understand or see. Having the mind of Christ is the same as being indwelt by the Holy Spirit, and both are attained through faith at the moment of salvation”
(Romans 5:1-2; Acts 2:38).

Jesus Is On His Way Back!
To gather all His Saints to Heaven
(I Cor. 15: 51-52; I Thes. 4: 16-17; and II Thes. 2: 1).
Those who have not accepted the redemptive work of Jesus Christ will suffer eternal separation from the God. The devil and his angels, the beast and the false prophet, and anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life, shall be consigned to everlasting punishment in the lake of fire which burns with brimstone.
This is the second death, the lake of fire. (Rev. 19: 20; 20: 10-15)
