OUR THEME

CREATING A CULTURE OF SOUL WINNERS!

He who WINS SOULS is wise!
PROVERBS 11:30

A true WITNESS delivers souls!
PROVERBS 14:25

1. A church that is PRODUCTIVE and not just busy.
2. A church that is FOCUSED on the Primary Objective - Soul Winning.
3. A Church that is CREATING an environment for people to be discipled.
4. A Church that is CORRECTLY leading people into being Born-Again.
5. A Church that is CREATING A CULTURE/LIFESTYLE of Soul-Winning.

 

The Great Commission means that the Church is to do 3 things:

1. Win Souls to Jesus Christ.
2. Baptize them - after they have repented.
3. Teach them to grow and obey God’s Word.

The Book of Acts which we are a continuation of outlines the program.

1. First, they were filled with the Holy Spirit.
2. Then they obeyed God.

What was their week to week church program?
Over and over - throughout the Book of Acts - you see them doing 2 things:

1. Winning Souls.
2. Praying.

What is a New Testament Church? Acts 2:47
….and the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved!

Prayer

The Bible says that God ‘...desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth’ 1 Timothy 2:4

It also say’s that God ‘...not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance’ 2 Peter 3:9

‘Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him’

1 John 5:14-15

These scriptures tell us some important things.
We know it is God’s will for people to be saved.
We know that if we pray for God’s will, that we will see God move to answer our prayers.

Therefore, if we pray fervently for God’s will to take place, and if we are obedient to His command to win souls, we will see results. That’s what God’s Word tells us.

Two important elements in the salvation of a soul 1 Corinthians 3:6-9

It is our job to go and take the Gospel to lost humanity Mark 16:15
It is God’s job to do the convicting and saving of the lost Ephesians 2:8-9

We recognize the fact that no one can come to Christ unless the Father draws him. John 6:44

 

 

REACH AND EMPOWER

Proclaiming the Truth and the Power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ with Excellence

Challenging Christians to Live Victoriously – Grow Spiritually - Know God Intimately

 

Our Church has a great vision from God for us to accomplish. Our Church exists to proclaim the truth and power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We do this in every aspect and department within our Church. I am committed to the cause to further God’s Word into the world. Our world is where we are right now. Our families, our neighbours, our community. There is nothing more in this world that satisfies me more than to see people ‘born-again’, begin to be discipled and achieve their God given destiny.

 

Our spirit is one of excellence. An excellent heart, excellent motives and aspirations. Love and Unity are key elements within this Church and we should protect this at all cost. Encouraging each other, believing in each other, thinking well and praying for each other.

 

We also exist to challenge followers of Jesus Christ to live in Victory, Grow spiritually and Know God intimately. Victorious living is taking God’s Word and applying it into our lives daily. An attitude that says ‘YES’. Growing spiritually means that we all understand we are on a journey of discipleship. We should be growing in all areas of our spiritual lives. Knowing God intimately is someone who is drawing closely to the Lord through worship and prayer.

 

OUR PURPOSE

To Build a Dynamic Church that Impacts the whole City of Sydney and beyond with the Gospel for Jesus Christ.

 

We are building a great Church. I believe that God desires that Harbourside CLC will become a strong regional Church. By that I mean we will have tremendous influence in our City and affect many other churches. God is already putting together like minded people who share this same passion and purpose. I would love to have you on board our team of dedicated and committed people who want to see this dream become a reality.
