Global Kingdom Network |
Let me give you a little understanding about Global Kingdom Network. Global Kingdom Network was created by myself, John Whitehouse, and Pastor Jack Irvin, who has moved on to another group, but he's still a part of us, and he still does stuff with us, who wanted to see more people in the citywide churches have the ability to minister in places like their neighborhoods and family where they could not because they didn't have a license to do so. We base our thinking on the scriptures found in Ephesians 4:11-16, in the Amplified, where it says,
" and his gifts were varied. He himself appointed and gave men to us, some to be apostles (special messengers), some prophets (inspired preachers and expounders), some evangelists (preachers of the gospel, traveling missionaries), some pastors (shepherds of the flock) and teachers. His intention was the perfecting and the full equipping of the saints (His consecrated people), [that they should do] the work of ministering toward building up Christ's body (the church), [that it might develop] until we all attain oneness in the faith and the comprehension of the [full and accurate] knowledge of the Son of God, that [we might arrive] at really mature manhood [or sisterhood or womanhood (the completeness of personality which is nothing less than the standard height of Christ's own perfection), the measure of stature of the fullness of Christ and the completeness found in him. So then we may no longer be children tossed [like ships] to and fro, between chance gusts of teaching and wavering with every changing wind of doctrine, [the prey of] the cunning and cleverness of unscrupulous men, [gamblers engaged] in every shifting form of trickery and inventing errors to mislead. Rather, let our lives lovingly express truth [in all things, speaking truly, dealing truly, living truly]. Enfolded in love, let us grow up in every way and in all things into Him who is the Head, [even] Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One). For because of him the whole body (the church in all of its various parts), closely joined and firmly knit together by the joints and ligaments with which it is supplied when each part [with power adapted to its need] is working properly [in all its functions], grows to full maturity, building itself up in love."
You got all that? That's why you have the Amplified Bible. Each word in our name describes the vision of our organization. Global, meaning worldwide, Kingdom because that was Jesus's message when he walked the earth 2,000 years ago, and Network, everyone working together to advance God's kingdom on earth. Thus the name Global Kingdom Network, which was created in 2019.
And let me describe for you who we are. We are a cooperative network of five-fold and marketplace ministries led by myself and my wife and John, and many, many others too numerous to mention.
And one of our many scriptures that we love to quote is Romans 8:19 from the Passion Translation that reads as follows:
"The entire universe is standing on tiptoe, yearning to see the unveiling of God's glorious sons and daughters!"And the New King James Version says it this way:
"For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God."Our main objective for Global Kingdom Network is to bring a Kingdom culture to the world and to establish God's Kingdom presence by equipping God's sons and daughters by ordaining them so that the Kingdom will advance throughout the Earth.
Together we are the ultimate expression of God's redemptive and eternal purpose. Since sonship is both male and female, it's central to the Kingdom culture, the presence and the function of spiritual leadership, and it's equally central to the process of our ongoing spiritual growth.
Global Kingdom Network includes five-fold ministries. We have a prophet that's ordained that lives in Connecticut that's a part of Global Kingdom Network. We have a woman pastor in Florida who is a part of Global Kingdom Network. And we're all seeking ways to discover who we are in Christ as we function within the body of Christ according to each of our specific callings.
Jesus himself has given us a mandate to proclaim the Kingdom of God is at hand and to demonstrate the effects that the Kingdom message is the only message that Jesus preached. The Kingdom is the gospel of GOOD NEWS that Jesus told us to teach. Amen? Amen.
The Kingdom is the place to which Jesus says he is the way, the truth, and the life. The Kingdom is the reality to which Jesus says he is the door. And so the Kingdom matters.
If you want to be ordained, get hold of me or John and we'll help you with that process.
