Grace Martial Arts Mission and Goals

In response to God's love, grace and truth, our purpose is to glorify God through teaching the Life-Changing message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to youth and their families and to assist the church in evangelizing and discipling a sea of lost, destitute souls in our own Nation's communities. Our youth and family programs foster growth in Biblical competence, spiritual formation and ministry leadership skills, with special emphasis on Biblical authority, authentic Christian living and world evangelism.

Grace Martial Arts Ministries

The Bible is the inspired Word of God, the written record of His supernatural revelation of Himself to man, absolute in its authority, complete in its revelation, final in its content and without error in its teaching.

All men in their natural state are lost, alienated from God, spiritually dead: All have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God (Rom. 3:23).

Salvation is only by grace, a free gift of God, through faith in the Lord Jesus, Who died for our sins according to the Scriptures (1 Cor. 15:3). Those who thus receive Christ by faith have their sins forgiven (Eph. 1:7), their hearts cleansed (Acts 15:9), are born of the Spirit, become children of God (Jn. 1:12-13), and are made new creatures in Christ (2 Cor. 5:17).

God is one God, Who reveals Himself in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ, as the Scriptures affirm, is the Son of God and Son of Man, who was born of a virgin, and is Himself very God. The Scriptures also declare the deity and personality of the Holy Spirit.

Our Lord Jesus rose from the dead in the same body that was laid to rest in the tomb (Jn. 20:25-27). The bodies of all believers who die will be raised from the dead, and they will receive an incorruptible body like unto His glorious body (1 Cor. 15:53; Phil. 3:21). All other men shall be raised unto the resurrection of judgment (Jn. 5:28-29).

Christians born of the Spirit are to live the new life in the present power of the Spirit. If we live by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us also walk (Gal. 5:16-25; Col. 2-6). The Christian's responsibility and his normal attitude of life is to yield himself to God (Rom. 6:13), trusting God to keep him.

Christian "living" includes Christian service, the winning of souls around us, and the preaching of the gospel in the uttermost parts of the earth, including to those in our local community. In carrying on this work, there is needed the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit, which is granted to every believer as he yields and trusts (Acts 1:8; 1 Cor. 12:7; Eph. 3:20; Acts 5:32). In all of this service, prayer is to have the central place (Jn. 14:12-14; Eph.6:18-19).

Jesus Christ will come again to earth the second time (Heb. 9:28) -- personally (Acts 1:11; 1 Th. 4:16); bodily (Acts 1:11; Col. 2:9); visibly (Mt. 26:64; Rev. 1:7). His coming will precede the age of universal peace and righteousness, foretold in the Scriptures (Mt. 24:29-30,42; 2 Th. 2:7-8; Rev. 20:1-6).
