Rev. Richard Johnson, B.Sc. "Mission Statement"

Having accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior in February, 1986, but lacking a true Teacher of the Word and an understanding of my Divine Purpose; God used approximately seventeen years to train me, teach me and bring me to a point of absolute commitment of my will and focus to Him. He had already shown me my purpose in 1998; however additional time was required to set everything within me, my mind, my spirit and my heart on a solo mission of destiny. It required special experiences, he creation of an enduring mind heart and spirit such that when the time came to be baptized in the Spirit of the Lord---there would be but one concept of journey and that is forward ever and backward never....combined with no retreat and no surrender.

Walking in the Spirit according to Galatians 5:16 to end and Romans 8 in its entirety combined with the seven Spirits of God as revealed in Isaiah 11:2; operating with faith, absolute obedience to the Spirit over Church and submission to God's ultimate authority ---I am trained to be a spiritual Warrior and teach the Kung Fu of the Spirit Realm.

My personal mission statement is as follows:

-to stand upright before God to the best of my ability

-to be a Spiritual Warrior taking the campaign into the enemy territory i.e. to hit the streets exhorting and encouraging men to get up and leave the life of crime and bondage to the old man with  the chemicals and downpression because God has a better life for them via Scriptures and Christ Jesus.

-to engage in the education of the people that are seeking God’s face and power , however will not engage in the religious diatribe of today. These people are seeking their spiritual walk with God as opposed to the common religious fantasy of this era.

-to educate as to the reality and application of Scripture ---avoiding doctrine, dogma and denomination.

-to be an inspiration to the outcast elements that God raises up the periphery to confuse the center, He makes the lowly great to establish that He is the true God of Creation and all you need is Him via Covenant Walk through Jesus Christ.

-to eventually establish a "Men's Bridge Ministry" to teach life and business skillsets combined with Spiritual Kung Fu.

-to go where He instructs me to go and do what He instructs me to do.

 To accomplish this in their lives, these men must be taught-not religion but rather, the spiritual walk with God in and through Jesus Christ.

-They must become firmly entrenched in the knowledge and specific application of Scripture as it applies to addiction, anger management and mindset issues.

-Those that choose to walk away and battle out from "Egypt" (bondage) will require time and a facility to be housed within such that they can be taught:

·        The discipline of quiet and determined leadership.

·        The reality of separation from anybody and anything that may hamper their progress must become solidly entrenched to prevent the mind or heart from being infected with 'defeatism' from without as we teach them victory from within.

·        All of these aforementioned pointers delve from Romans 12:2 “Romans 12:2 (Amplified Bible) ²Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His sight for you].

·        They must establish a new family (Church) and a new way of thinking (Scripture/Bible)

Once again, God is still in the miracle business for men and women. But to experience His power you must let go of everything about you including your old personality and character. Either we turn it all in for new items or we hold ourselves back by our old ways, there is no other way. It is for this reason that many have been in the Church building for years and not experienced the life altering events they are told about and scream about.

We must teach the men for it is written that the father is the glory of the child (Proverbs). When we raise up a man from the ashes of a life it positively impacts a multitude of other men and their children because the youth see that victory is possible after setbacks and there is life after death…so keep struggling for life and victory despite the setbacks and defeats. Remember that you are only truly defeated when you quit fighting to achieve despite setbacks,

I teach warfare to others, to be a light and guide through the Wilderness as they (the Students) progress towards true freedom-walking in the Spirit…via Scripture and Jesus Christ.
