			The mission of Greater Exodus Baptist Church is “To bring people to Jesus Christ and membership in His church, to develop them to Christ-like maturity, to equip them for ministry and life-mission in the church and community in order to magnify God’s name.

			One of the most important things that a new believer in the Lord finds out is that s/he has become a part of the Body of Christ, and that s/he no longer exists for him or herself, but for the Lord, His people and His objectives. God has a purpose in His church for every believer, and He not only expects each of his children to become active in contributing to the good of the church family, He distributes gifts and abilities to make that possible, He provides the wisdom, strength and power needed for the performance of each ministry, and He is the source of the love necessary for the exercise of each gift in such a way that it brings true life and blessing.

			There are two chapters in the Bible which speak plainly to this point, and they are found in I Corinthians, chapters 12 and 13. Paul makes it clear in I Cor. 12, beginning in verse 14, that “The body is not made up of one part but of many,” and that “God has arranged the parts in the body, every one of them, just as He wants them to be.” (v. 18) Verses 21 and following explain that every member of the body needs every other member of the body, and that all deserve respect and honor . . .”So that there should be no division in the body, but that its parts should have equal concern for each other.” Paul also explains that no one has all gifts and abilities, but that each has his or her own special gifts to present to the church for its greater good, and that these gifts are given for the purpose of service and ministry.

			However, the outward performance of a ministry is not enough. It is brought to our attention in I Corinthians 13 that it would be possible for us to do something even as enormous as giving up everything we own for the poor or giving our very bodies to be burned, and yet for those acts to be worthless in the sight of God if they do not spring from a heart enlivened by His pure love.
