Merciful Redemption Church Covenant

(A Worldwide Training Center) Being lead by God to receive the Lord Jesus Christ into my life, I now make a covenant with the Merciful Redemption Church (A Worldwide Training Center). I will subscribe and adhere to the following things:

I love Jesus and acknowledge Him as the Lord of my life and all of creation by: trusting in Him alone for forgiveness and hope; surrendering my days and nights to His plans for me; telling others the good news of hope and peace as a "fisher of men." (Scriptures: Isaiah 53:6, John 1:12, 1Timothy 1:15-16, and Matthew 4:19)

I believe in and respect my church leaders and the direction they are taking as they are lead by the Lord in: acknowledging that they are placed into leadership by the Holy Spirit; praying for them regularly; following and supporting them into the calling and ministries of my church. (Scriptures: 2 Corinthians 8:5, 2 Thessalonians 3:1-2, Hebrews 13:17)

I am willing to love the people of my church and spend time with my church family by: participating in organized church activities; placing a high priority on Christian fellowship; accepting people where they are, giving God time to cleanse and restore life to them. (Scriptures: Hebrews 10:25, 1 Peter 1:22, Romans 15:7)

As a member of this church, I believe in standing with it financially and supporting it's ministries by: living a disciplined and godly life that God can bless; giving regularly of my tithes and offering to invest in our ministries; acknowledging God as my Provider and returning an investment into His kingdom according to scripture. (Scriptures: Matthew 6:32-33, Malachi 3:10, 1 Corinthians 16:2) I am willing to serve God -- without restraint by: searching out and using my gifts and talents; taking time to serve other people; saying "yes" to the Holy Spirit, instead of "no." (Scriptures: 1 Peter 4:10, Philippians 2:3-7, Acts 1:8)
