About John 1:1 Ministry
John 1:1 Ministry is an independent non-denominational ministry, a non-profit faith based organization. We are not registered as a 501c3 organization. Our founding fathers of our nation saw the importance of faith based organizations in setting the moral and religious standards for our nation, and they protected it under the First Amendment. Our authority comes from God alone.
We are primarily an online ministry. This allows us to reach out and spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ globally. We also serve our local community as well as people in need all over the United States and around the globe. We will go where ever there is a need that God calls us to serve.
John 1:1 Ministry and all who call themselves Christian have been given a great calling in
Matthew 28: 18 - 20 "18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto Me in Heaven and in Earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
We are also called to His service to be servants.
Matthew 20:"28 just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.” Galations 5:13"For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another."
OUR FAITH
ONE GOD
There is one God: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are ONE. Just as we are body, mind and spirit, created in His image. The Father is God. Jesus is God. The Holy Spirit is God. He is the Almighty God, creator of all Heaven and Earth and all that is in them. (John 14:7–16; Genesis 1:1; 1:26–27; 3:22; Psalm 90:2; Isaiah 40:28–29; Matthew 28:19; 1 Peter 1:2; 2 Corinthians 13:14, Ephesians 4:4-6.
JESUS CHRIST, GOD’S SON
Jesus Christ is God, come to the earth to dwell with us. Christ is not His last name, it means 'the anointed one'. Jesus is the name above every name because He is the only One worthy to be our sacrifice and reconciliation. He is the only Way to God. He is the Truth of God. He is the Life God has given us. He is the Love God has given us. He is the Light that gives Life to every man that comes into the world, because He is the creator, and He is the only way to an eternal life with God, because He is God. He was born in the flesh. He was born of a virgin as both God and man, lived a sinless life and suffered as a human. He was crucified on a cross and died to atone for the sins of all humans on earth. Jesus being God, became the sacrificial Lamb, a perfect and acceptable sacrificial atonement for all of our sins. He was buried, in a borrowed tomb, and being God, death could not keep Him and He arose from the grave alive. He spent 40 days after coming out of the grave, testifying and was witnessed by over 500 people. He then ascended into heaven, and will literally return to earth in His glorified Flesh, the same way that He left when He ascended, as He promised, and as the angels testified to the disciples. (Matthew 1:22–23; Isaiah 9:6; 53:5–6; John 1:1–5; 14:10–30; Hebrews 4:14–15; 1 Corinthians 15:3–4; Romans 1:3–4; Acts 1:9–11; 1 Timothy 6:14–15; Titus 2:13).
THE HOLY SPIRIT
The Holy Spirit is God. He is our divine comforter, helper, counselor, instructor, protector., creator. He is our ever present help, always working. His work reveals and testifies of Jesus as God and Savior , convicts us of sin, gives us understanding, leads us to repentance, guides, comforts, strengthens, sustains and sanctifies us. He is the heart and soul of God, Who is the Lover of our Soul. (2 Corinthians 3:17; John 16:7–13; 14:16–17; Acts 1:8; 1 Corinthians 2:12; 3:16; Ephesians 1:13; 5:25; Galatians 5:25).
THE BIBLE
The Bible is God’s Holy Word, without error, and is the sole authority for life. Jesus is the Word of God. Every word in the KJV Bible is divinely inspired by God, and a miracle in and of itself. It is a library of books written by 40 writers from different cultures, with different writing styles, living in different countries at different times, speaking over 50 different languages, over a period of 1500 years. And in spite of such diversity it is in perfect harmony and unity, compiled in 1611 into one language that would be spoken commonly all over the earth and translated into more languages than any other book, at a time when mass production and distribution would make it possible for everyone to have one, and the longest bestselling book in all the world since it's production, containing in it about 2500 prophecies, of which about 2000 have already been fulfilled to the letter and without error, proving it's reliability. God says that Heaven and Earth will pass away, but His Words will never pass away. Even without written form that can be read, He places His Word in our hearts and mind, that we may know Him. The Word of God has impacted each person's life, more than they realize it, even if they have not read it. As Jesus said in John 10:35, "Scripture cannot be broken.". (Psalm 119:105; Romans 15:4; 2 Peter 1:20–21; 2 Timothy 3:16).
MAN’S NEED FOR GOD
Human beings are the special creations of God, made in His image. They fell through the sin of the first man, Adam, and all human beings are sinners in need of salvation. We are no longer born into the perfect world that God created for us in the beginning, where He could be present with us, but we are born into a world stained by sin, that takes away life and perfection and causes death, destruction and hell. No matter how 'good' we think we are, there is no works or deeds, good or bad, that can pull us out of the sin that we are born into, that separates us from God. Everyone will physically die, but our souls are eternal. Without being cleansed of our sins through the blood of Jesus, God Himself, we cannot be reconciled to God and have eternal life when we die. And die we will, because of the curse of sin. But God told Adam in the beginning, if you eat from that tree, you will surely die (the very first prophecy). And so far, that has been true for every person ever to exist, except one...the one who IS God, who we call Jesus. (Genesis 1:27; Psalm 8:3–6; Isaiah 53:6; 59:1–2; Romans 3:23).
SALVATION
Salvation is a gift through repentance toward God and faith in Jesus Christ. Every person who truly is saved is eternally secure in the Lord Jesus Christ and will spend eternity in heaven, while those who die in their sins will spend eternity in hell. What must you do to be saved? Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you shall be saved. It is so encompassing and profound, yet it is that simple. (Acts 16:30-31) (Romans 6:23; Ephesians 2:8–9; John 14:6; 1:12; Titus 3:5; Galatians 3:26; Romans 5:1).
BAPTISM
Baptism is by immersion after salvation and is done in obedience to Jesus Christ’s command (Matthew 3:15–17; Acts 2:38)
.
BELIEVER’S ACCESS TO GOD
Each believer has direct access to God through the Lord Jesus Christ (Hebrews 4:14–16; 7:19; Ephesians 3:12).
THE CHURCH
The Church is considered the body of Jesus Christ. It is all who put their faith in Jesus as God and Savior, who follow His teachings and carry on His ministry of sharing the gospel, which is the good news of the Kingdom of God where we can have eternal life being reconciled to God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ. (Matthew 16:18; Acts 20:27–29; 1 Corinthians 12:27–29; Ephesians 1:21–23; 3:20–22; 4:1–3; 5:21–27; Colossians 1:17–19).
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to allow the Holy Spirit to work through us for His purpose, to grow the Kingdom of God that He may be Glorified.
LEADERSHIP
Ministro Teresa W Taylor
Si Minister Teresa Taylor ay inorden at nasa mabuting katayuan sa pamamagitan ng Christian Global Outreach Ministries (Minister #104546 Conferred). Nakilala ni Teresa ang Panginoong Hesukristo sa buong buhay niya. Noong siya ay ilang buwan pa lamang habang nasa bisig ng kanyang Lola, itinuro niya ang isang painting at sinabing "Jesus". Siya ay pinalaki sa Brentwood Baptist Church, sa High Point. Nag-aral siya sa maraming iba pang mga simbahang denominasyon kabilang ang Katoliko, Baptist, Methodist, Church of God at higit pa, ngunit itinuturing niyang tahanan ang Shiloh Baptist Church sa Ramseur, NC.
Inampon ni Teresa si Jesucristo bilang kanyang Tagapagligtas noong Agosto 2, 1987. Noong Enero 2021, sinabi sa kanya ng Diyos na ayusin ang kanyang bahay. Pagkatapos noong Pebrero 19, 2021, habang sinasaksihan kung paano siya itinuro tungkol kay Jesus mula sa kanyang mga pinakaunang alaala noong bata pa siya, pinutol siya ng Diyos at mariing sinabi sa kanya na "Walang nagturo sa iyo, TINAWAG KITA!" Pagkatapos magtrabaho sa kanya sa loob ng 9 na buwan, ipinakita sa kanya ng Diyos na tinawag niya siya sa ministeryo. Nahirapan siya sa Kanyang tungkulin dahil itinuro sa kanya na ang mga babae ay hindi tinawag para maging mga ministro. Ipinakita sa kanya ng Diyos kung paano si Maria Magdelene, isang babae, ang unang pinili Niya na ipangaral ang buong Ebanghelyo ng Kanyang muling pagkabuhay, nang sabihin Niya sa kanya na 'pumunta at sabihin' sa Juan 20:17. Ipinakita sa kanya ng Diyos kung paano siya naging lingkod Niya sa lahat ng mga taon niya, ipinaalala sa kanya at pinaliwanag kung paano niya sinimulan at pinamunuan ang mga pag-aaral sa Bibliya at mga grupo ng panalangin. Nagdala siya ng maliwanag na mga alaala kung paano siya nagministeryo sa mga ministro sa pamamagitan ng payo ng Bibliya, paghihikayat at panalangin. Ipinakita niya sa kanya ang isang lumang sulat na nawala at nakalimutan sa loob ng maraming taon, mula sa isang pastor, na nagpapasalamat sa kanya para sa epekto niya sa Kanyang ministeryo at pamilya, na umabot hanggang sa isang Simbahan sa India. Ipinaliwanag din niya kung paano siya naging tapat sa Kanya sa paglilingkod sa Temple Mount Faithful Movement ng Israel, ngunit gayundin kung paano siya naglingkod sa lokal na pagbibigay ng mga Bibliya sa mga walang nito., at ipinaalala sa kanya ang marami na ipinadala Niya sa kanya para sa tulong. Matapat niyang tinanggap ang kanyang tawag sa ministeryo noong Nobyembre 2, 2021. Pinangunahan siya ng Diyos na lumikha ng Juan 1:1 Ministeryo dahil sinabi Niya na doon nagsimula ang Kanyang ministeryo. Pinangunahan niya siya na lumikha ng ministeryo sa online upang matupad ang kanyang pagtawag sa Mateo 28:19-20 "Kaya humayo kayo at gawin ninyong mga alagad ang lahat ng mga bansa". Nagsimula siyang magtrabaho sa website noong Nobyembre 17, 2021, na inilunsad noong Disyembre 1, 2021 bilang www.John1OneMinistry.com.
Sa pusong tagapaglingkod, inialay ni Teresa ang kanyang buhay sa paglilingkod sa Panginoong Jesucristo at paglilingkod sa iba. Siya ay may Bachelor of Science Degree sa Social Sciences at nagsilbi bilang isang deputy sheriff sa loob ng 17 taon. Ibinigay sa kanya ng Diyos ang Asawa na perpekto para sa kanya, nang isama Niya siya sa kasal sa kanyang asawang si Chad Taylor. Si Chad ay naging mapagkukunan ng lakas, suporta, panghihikayat at tulong sa kanilang tahanan, buhay at kanyang ministeryo. Mayroon silang limang anak; Crystal ~edad 31 (3 apo ~ Alexis, Hailey at Payton), Andrea ~edad 21 (manugang na si Darrell Kidd), Joshua ~ edad 19, David ~ edad 14, at ang kanilang anghel na sanggol na si Joseph (namatay siya sa sinapupunan sa 3 buwan mula sa Trisomy 18). Sila rin ay hindi opisyal na nag-ampon ng dalawang anak na lalaki, sina Darius at Jeffery. Bilang isang pamilya, nasisiyahan sila sa paghahardin, kamping, pangingisda at geocaching.
