4 Step Strategy Of First Mount Zion Baptist Church
2
Worship

• The hour is coming and now is, when the true
  worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and
  truth for the Father is seeking such to worship
  Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him
  must worship in spirit and truth. (John 422-24)

3

• Worship allows us to draw close to a Holy
  God, who alone is worthy of all our praise and
  adoration. Therefore, we invite you to come
  worship with us.

Study of the Word

• Study to show thyself approved unto God, a
  workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly
  dividing the word of truth. (II Timothy 215)
• At First Mount Zion, we are committed to the
  diligent study and presentation of Gods Word

5

• Throughout the Bible, God challenges and
  commands us to be diligent in our studies of His
  Word. The Greek word for study as used in the
  verse above means to exert oneself, to endeavor,
  or give diligence to, which suggests that the
  path to fruitful bible study requires commitment
  and discipline on our part. 

6

• We encourage you to develop your own personal
  Bible study time as a part of your daily devotion
  and meditation. We offer several opportunities
  and settings for the study of Gods Word by way
  of various ministry meetings and activities,
  Sunday School, Small Group meetings, weekly Bible
  Study and as a cohort with Princeton Theological
  Seminary. 

7

• We hope you will be encouraged in knowing
  that, though people are at different levels in
  their spiritual growth we are all striving to
  show ourselves approved unto God.

8
Stewardship

• Bring all the tithes into the storehouse,
  That there may be food in My house, And try Me
  now in this, Says the LORD of hosts, If I will
  not open for you the windows of heaven And pour
  out for you such blessing That there will not
  be room enough to receive it. (Malachi 310)

9

• Malachi challenges us to try Gods
  faithfulness through faithful giving of our time,
  talents gifts and financial resources. At First
  Mount Zion, we are committed to experiencing the
  promises of God through faithful stewardship.

10
Service

• Thus also faith by itself, if it does not
  have works, is dead. But someone will say, You
  have faith and I have works. Show me your faith
  without your works, and I will show you my faith
  by my works. (James 218-19)

11

• The book of James reminds us that faith and
  works go hand in hand and, as one writer puts it,
  faith alone saves but the faith that saves is
  never alone. At First Mount Zion, we are
  committed to a faith that naturally produces good
  works. Through our faithful service we become the
  extended arms of God to humankind.

12

• We invite you to become an active part of the
  many ways that God is serving this community
  through the faithful servants of First Mount Zion.
