WELCOME To
BIBLE BASED CHURCH
where our foundation is based on the Bible.
OUR GREATNESS DECREE
I Believe and Expect,
Great Things to Happen In My Life
Because
MY GOD,
HE is Great
and
Greatness Resides in Me.
OUR BEGINNING
It is a great privilege and honor to have this opportunity to welcome you to Bible Based Church. It is my sincerest prayer that you will richly grow in spiritual maturity based on the Word and works of God.
On the eighth day of the eighth month in the year of our Lord 2010, Almighty God declared to me that it was time to officially launch the Bible Based Church into the now. Although the first word spoken about what we know today as Bible Based Church was given in 2006, it was not the Lord’s will for the ministry to be fully released until 2010. In obedience to God, we stepped out from a place of comfort and familiarity to a place unknown to the natural eyesight. Since the launch of the church, we have experienced some roadblocks, some transitional moments, and some doubters. However, despite the roadblocks, the transitional moments and especially the doubters, the Lord has continuously favored us with showers of blessings because of our loyalty to the vision.
No one person can take credit for the wonders of our God. As I have shared in many conversations, upon the launch of the ministry, I was only assured of three members – Elect Lady Tikia, Darrick II and Miss Tania. But, because I know God makes provision for any vision He gives, trusting was made easy. Every opportunity I am blessed to enjoy at the Bible Based Church is an extreme honor and privilege. The Lord could have chosen anyone else, but He chose and trusted me. With a commitment to excellence in ministry, we have the satisfaction of knowing we are pleasing the Lord in our service.
The Bible Based Church was never birthed in my spirit to be or launched just to be another church. We were not established by the Spirit of God just to meet and have “good” service. Our vision has been and will always be to build a strong bible-based foundational ministry that is designed to prepare and equip Believers for Christian discipleship and community service.
As the under-shepherd of the best local church, I forever commit to you that Jesus will always be the primary focus of all worship experiences.
-Pastor D
