“We strive to be conformed to the Image of Jesus Christ in character, deed, and power to truly represent the Kingdom of God in the earth as mature followers of Christ.”
Romans 8:29…NIV Version:
“For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of his Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brothers.”
Ephesians 4:12-16…NIV version:
“To prepare God’s people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up, until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into Him who is the head, that is, Christ. From Him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.”
