Not Just Another Movement ...
The world is full of Christian movements: fundamentalist movements,
evangelical movements, and charismatic or Pentecostal movements.
Often these movements center around a famous preacher, or a specific
type of miracle, or a style of worship or outreach.
We are not a movement, even though we have hundreds of thousands of members worldwide.
Our goal is to function as a Body, which is the biblical model. The Body takes
all its directions from the Head (Jesus), has coordinated movements, fully-integrated
parts or organs, and shares the exact same life throughout every part. Achieving
this requires a lot of commitment, purposeful decisions, and frequent reminders
for our members.
We are not out to criticize or attack other churches or movements; but our members
are surrounded every day by the dizzying array of movements in modern Christendom.
It is important for us to set forth clearly how we differ from the Christian
movements around us, so that we do not lose sight of the goal: to develop and
mature as the Body of Christ.
