About Kingdom Christian Ministries of Lithia Florida
At Kingdom Christian Ministries
we preach the Gospel of the Kingdom and Grace. It is
God's plan to heal the sick by the present power of His Kingdom (Luke 17:20-21)
working through His church. Jesus told His disciples to go and preach the
Kingdom heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, and cast out demons (Matt
10:7). He also commanded the 70 in this same manner in Luke 10:8-9.
Jesus Himself preached the Kingdom (Matt 4:23) and said the end will not come until
the Kingdom has been preached in all the earth (Matt 24:14). The Gospel of the
Kingdom is not merely words and can never be fully preached without demonstrating
the power of Jesus Christ!
Jesus loves His creation and what better way to express that love than by setting
them free from sickness, bondage, and pain. The Kingdom was preached by the
Apostles and is continuing today. We regularly experience God's power to heal
the sick and edify through prophetic words. We desire to experience what
it means to truly be a Christian living a Kingdom lifestyle, one of righteousness,
joy, and peace in the Holy Spirit (Romans 14:17).
We believe that we are saved by grace
through faith (Ephesians 2:8-10) and our righteousness is not based on what we do
but on what He has done! The word of God tells us that salvation is a complete work
of God, we begin by having faith in Him after that we learn to yield to Him as He
brings us from glory to glory (2 Corinthians 3:18) and as He fully sanctifies us
Himself (1 Thessalonians 5:23).
Righteousness is a gift that is given to us by our heavenly Father and we cannot work for it and we cannot earn it (Philippians
3:29). God has given righteousness to
anyone who believes in Jesus. Jesus Himself said the work we have been given was
to believe in Him (John 6:29). We understand that no one can be made righteous through
the law and no one who is in Christ will be judged by the law (Romans 8:1-2) because
we have been set free from it. Praise God, He is good!
What we believe
-
We believe that Jesus Christ is the only way by which man
can be saved from his sins.
-
We believe in God's unconditional grace and that we are justified
by a relationship with Christ as He brings us into His image
and that it is not a work of the flesh. You are not saved
by following rules you are saved by following Jesus!
-
We believe in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit as a separate
experience from salvation and is evidenced by speaking in
tongues, prophesying, and many other Spiritual gifts.
-
We believe in the Kingdom of Christ that has already come
and is coming. The Kingdom of Christ provides the church with
the power of God.
-
We believe that Christians have been given Spiritual authority
over sickness, death, and demonic forces and that we must
operate in these gifts today. Jesus gave us these keys to
the Kingdom that whatever we release on earth is released
in heaven and whatever we bind on earth is bound in heaven.
-
We believe that the purpose of the church is to be the healer
of the nations and restore what the devil has stolen.
-
We believe that God's goodness, faithfulness, and promises
for His people are beyond our comprehension and it is time
for the church to live in the joy of knowing Jesus!
