God’s Vision for CHBC: 3 Piers, 3 Pillars, and 3 Purposes

Purpose 3: Extend the Gospel

The Great Commission was delivered to the apostles, and those gathered with Jesus at His ascension. Matthew 28:18-20 says, “And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” The question is, did this relate to the apostles only, to every Christian individually, or to the church global and local?

 The answer is yes to all of the above. The apostles were being specifically commissioned to bring the gospel to the nations. Every believer has a responsible to share the gospel and make disciples as they go. The church global and the local church has a mandate to spread the gospel to the ends of the earth. At CHBC we see global evangelization as one of our three key reasons for existence. We believe that it is our purpose to extend the gospel to our neighbors and the nations.

 We fulfill this purpose by giving to the Cooperative Program of the SBC out of our regular tithes, through an annual special offering called the Lottie Moon Offering, through our ongoing World Missions Offering, and through supporting teams of people from our church who go on mission trips throughout the year. We also have evangelistic outreach events throughout the year for our own community through things like VBS, Youth Camp, and Love Your Neighbor events.

God’s Vision for CHBC: 3 Piers, 3 Pillars, and 3 Purposes

Purpose 2: Exalt Christ

“CHBC is not a building people meet together in, but a people who gather to worship Jesus Christ as Lord.” Is this just a quippy saying or something we sincerely believe. This is what we believe. The church exists to glorify God. To glorify God is to magnify the same thing He does.

 

God glorifies the Son. John 17:1 says, “Jesus spoke these things; and lifting up His eyes to heaven, He said, ‘Father, the hour has come; glorify Your Son, that the Son may glorify You,’.” In order for us to worship God properly we must live all of life in exaltation of Jesus Christ. Through a personal pursuit of practical holiness, we honor what Christ has died for. Through corporate worship centered on the person and work of Christ, we encourage others to remain Christ focused. CHBC exists to exalt Christ.
