Statement of Faith
God
We believe that there is one God who is eternally existent in three persons. God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit (Hebrews 1:1-2; John 1:1; 14:6-7; Matthew 28:19).
Jesus
We believe in His virgin birth, His sinless human life, His divine miracles, His vicarious and His atoning death, His bodily resurrection, His ascension into heaven, His mediatorial work, His personal second return in power and glory; and His headship over the church. We believe in the resurrection of Christ and that such, made possible for the doctrine of our salvation to have a living proof and we also believe in the resurrection of the dead (Matthew 1:20-23; Hebrews 9:2; 10:12; Ephesians 5:23; John14:2; John 14:19; Acts 23:6).
Holy Spirit
We believe in His indwelling of believers, and His gifts to the body of Christ, to enable us to live a holy life and to witness and to serve God effectively (John 14:26; Ephesians 4:11-13; 1 Corinthians 12:8-10, 28; Romans 12:6-8).
Holy Bible
We believe that the scriptures is originally given by God, it is divinely inspired, (both Old and New Testaments); it is authentic, authoritative, and conclusive word of God (1 Timothy 3:16).
Man
We believe that humanity was created by God in His image, fell into sin; and is lost, and can be justify by faith alone in God through the atoning work of Jesus Christ, the Savior of humanity. This justification constitutes perpetual relationship with God (Genesis 1:27; Romans 3:23-28; John 3:16).
Church
We believe that the Church is the assembly of believers in Christ, reborn by the Spirit of God into one body, its purpose is to proclaim the Gospel to the lost among all nations. Such is also a commission from Christ the Head. It has been gifts and ministries for the perfecting of the body of Christ (Hebrews 12:23; Matthew 28:19-20).
Salvation
We believe that salvation it is God free gift to humanity by His grace through faith in Christ, and His work of atonement on the cross purchased it once and for all, and no form of earthly works by humanity has any part in this preeminent plan of God (Acts 4:12; Ephesians 2:8-9).
Baptism
We believe in water baptism as sanctioned by the Lord and symbolic of our death burial and resurrection with Him in new life. Such is to be carried out in the name of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:19-20; Romans 6:4).
Sacraments
We believe that the holy sacrament is one of the most cardinal ordinances that the Lord instituted for the church to partake of together in remembrance of Him as a symbol of His Flesh and blood, which was shed for the sin of the world (Luke 22:19, 1 Corinthians 11:23-26).
Mission
The ministry D.O.N.E. Inc. operates in the region of West Africa. The D.O.N.E. Inc. mission is to make disciples and evangelize among Muslims, Animist, nominal Christians and all unreached peoples of our target areas, into growing disciples of Jesus Christ by employing contextually relevant strategies primarily, but not exclusively, through the holistic ministry of trained national workers in accordance with the mandate of the great commission as recorded in Matthew 28:19-20.
This area is dominated ninety percent by the Islamic religion, one hundred percent by poverty disease famine desert, and thousands of displaced refugees fleeing from war or some other pestilence. In eighty percent of the area where we operate there is a high risk to both the pastors and the convert and often they have to escape for fear of their lives. The Word of God must be fulfilled by all cost regardless of the personal consequences, but in order for this goal to be achieved you must play a part.
Objectives
To evangelize and disciple our nations effectively in keeping with the mandate of the great commission. To provide life changing, Christ centered theological and holistic training for workers who will employ the acquire skills, discipline and knowledge in their lives and that of others in order to transform their communities to the glory of God (Ezra 7:10; 2 Timothy 3:14-17). To demonstrate the love of Jesus by identifying and helping the poor and needy, thus practicing such love by initiating and implementing socioeconomic, relief and development activities helping to ease agony for lives Matthew 25:37-40.
Vision
The vision of DONE is to disciple, train, evangelize and plant reproductive churches among all unevangelized, unreached, hidden peoples, primarily but not exclusively in areas where there are no gospel witness, originating in the region of West Africa.
