Here is what we stand for as R.E.A.L. Men of God
R = Responsible in God: As real men of God, we are responsible in the things of God. As Adam was responsible as caretaker in the Garden of Eden, so are we responsible for all that God has entrusted in our hands. Colossians 3:23 “And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;”
E = Educated about God: As real men of God, we are to be educated in the concepts and precepts of God. 2 Timothy 2:15 “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that need not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
A = Accountable to God: As real men of God, we are held accountable by God for everything that He has blessed us with. 2 Corinthians 5:10 “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.”
L = Lovers of God: As real men of God, we are to love God above everyone and everything else. Luke 10:27 “And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.”
Who Are We
As R.E.A.L. men of God, we believe that the Creator God, Yahweh, is the most high God. He is the one who has created all things and alone holds them together.
We believe that there is only one God, Yahweh, who exists in three persons: God the Father, Jesus Christ his Son, and the Holy Spirit. As stated in Deuteronomy 6:4, “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.” These three persons are co-equal in knowledge, power, and authority.
Men have been called to the forefront of the spiritual battle since the creation of the world in Genesis 1. God established man as the leader of his family and positioned him in the garden as the caretaker of His creation. Therefore, we believe that men should serve as the spiritual leaders in their homes. Ephesians 5:22-33 teaches that just as the church follows Christ, wives should follow their husbands. Additional guidance on the role of women is found in scriptures such as Titus 2:3-5, 1 Timothy 5:14, and Proverbs 31:27. Women are the first teachers and managers within the home, supporting their husbands. Children are called to honor their parents, who are to raise them up in knowledge and reverence for God. Ultimately, the family structure reflects God’s relationship to humanity.
Our Rationale:
Men have been called to the forefront of the spiritual battle since the creation of the world in Genesis 1. God established man as the leader of his family and positioned him in the garden as the caretaker of God’s creation. Since the fall in the garden, men in general have consistently relinquished that responsibility. God is calling men back to their original position as head of the family and as caretaker of God’s creation. God is empowering men to strengthen each other in this endeavor. Thus the inception of the R. E. A. L. Men of God Ministry.
Our Purpose:
The purpose of “The R.E.A.L. Men of God Ministry” is to develop a men’s ministry that will provide a platform for men of all age, creed, color, and nationality (men of every birth) to come together in a spirit of caring, sharing, and spiritual support with God as our source, Jesus Christ as our Savior, and the Holy Spirit as our guide.. Our key Scripture is Proverbs 27:17 “As iron sharpens iron, So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.”
Our Vision:
We endeavor to empower all men, young and elderly to impact the world for Christ. We seek to reach the masses, men of every birth to be role models for the younger generation. We endeavor to teach them how to be men according to the word of God; to teach them how to be spirit filled men, praying men, faithful men, loving men, caring men, strong men. Men that are provider, protector and priest in our homes using God as the ultimate example; to serve as witnesses for Christ, to be godly men, godly fathers, godly husbands, godly neighbors, and godly friends; to have a positive impact on the family, the home, the church, the community, the state, the country, and the entire world, to be the godly men that God is calling for in these last and evil days.
Our Mission:
It is the mission of the R.E.A.L. Men Of God Ministry to provide continuous support to the men of God in all aspect of their lives. God has called all men to stand up and assume the role for which men are called. We believe in the word of God. We believe that God is our creator and our source. We believe Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior and we believe that the Holy Spirit is our Comforter and Guide. We believe Proverbs 27:17 that says, “Iron sharpen iron; so a man sharpen the countenance of his friend.” Our core values are centered around the acronyms R.E.A.L. As real men of God we must be the men that God has called us to be.
Our Goals:
- Provide spiritual support through brotherly love and communication.
- Helping others to come into the full knowledge of God.
- Inspiring others to reach the lost for Christ: Building disciples for Christ.
- Touching the heart of those that are hurting in order to receive healing.
- Strengthen the brethren by offering support and prayer.
Our Motto:
We are men being all that we can be in the Lord. Brother to Brother, yours in life and death.
