To God Be The Glory

Our church, like most churches, has a mission statement. This is what our statement is:

Believers Fellowship exists to glorify God by ministering the word of God through the power of the Holy Spirit with a focus on the Lord Jesus Christ in order to present everyman complete in Christ.

This week on Cutting It Straight I’d like to break down this statement and think it through.

To begin with, Believers Fellowship exists to glorify God. That’s the bottom line. We only exist as a church because of the gracious work which God has done in our hearts. He saved us. God gave us new life in Christ. God brought us together as a church and He is the One who directs us and provides for us.

Our ministry is not about a personality or a program. It’s all about worshipping and serving our God.

You’re welcome to join us in glorifying God and visit us online at believers-fellowship.org.

This really hit me today! How, often, I say, "To God Alone Be the Glory" or pray that "God be glorified" -- without really thinking of what that means and looks like. I like how Piper says it, "God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him...Glorifying God simply means calling attention to the infinite value and excellency of our great God." What a responsiblity, but what a privilege! Truly, may God be GLORIFIED at BF.
