Gospel Training International: Zambia

Gospel Training International is an inter-denominational, grace-based, Christian ministry. It is the parent organization of Gospel Training Institute that is situated in the Nation of Zambia. This pilot project has been designed based in the book of Acts, the Apostle Paul’s ministry, as well as years of ministry experience.

A solid conviction that ministry is about building people rather than building organizations or personal kingdoms is part of the cohesion that binds the core values found in GTI. The essential ingredient of the love God has for people permeates every training program and outreach.

Establishing people in a Bible-based sense of self-worth that is a direct result of knowing and believing the love of God.
Equipping people in the realities of the grace of God and faith righteousness.
Developing a responsible system of theology that properly represents the new covenant.
Training people in innovative ministry techniques that are relevant and effective today.
Develop life skills that result in more meaningful relationships, better communication, effective leadership and successful ministry.

Make a positive difference in the lives of people globally:
“God authorized and commanded me to commission you: Go out and train everyone you meet, far and near, in this way of life, marking them by baptism in the three fold name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Then instruct them in the practice of all I have commanded you. I ‘ll be with you as you do this, day after day after day right up to the end of the age.” ( Mathew 28:18,19 - The Message)

Connect people with God’s purpose:
“The object and purpose of our instruction and charge is love which springs from a pure heart and a good clear conscience and sincere unfeigned faith.” (I Timothy 1:5 AMP)

Prepare and equip people to minister to others:
“… for the perfecting of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:”
(Eph 4:11,12 KJV)

Establish an inter-denominational Gospel Training Institution to effect and influence the Central Sub-Saharan region of Africa. Teaching and preaching the gospel in crusades, churches and seminars. Promote and publish the Gospel through all forms of media, radio, television, audio, video, CD, Internet communication, printed literature and any other means that may become available. This mission and vision are alive and therefore subject to natural growth and development as part of the ongoing process.

To maximize our influence in the world, we shall support, promote, and develop affiliate ministries that will complement and fulfill the vision and purpose of Gospel Training International.

We Believe . . .

…that the Bible is the inspired and only infallible authoritative Word of God.
(II Tim. 3:16)

…in one God, Maker of all things who eternally exists in Trinity as three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
(I John 5:4-7; John 1:1-14)

…in the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His personal return in power and glory.
(I Cor. 15:3; I Peter 2:23-24; John 3:16)

…that for salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.
(Rom. 3:21-30; Gal. 4:4-7)

…that the Baptism in the Holy Ghost and fire is a gift from God as promised by the Lord Jesus Christ to all believers in this dispensation and is received subsequent to the New Birth.
(Matt. 3:11; John 14:16,17; Acts 1:8; Acts 2:38,39; Acts 19:1-7; Acts 2:4)

The word Baptism means “immersion.” Water baptism is an outward sign of an inward working. It is displaying our immersion into Christ. Water baptism is your opportunity to “publicly” identify with the “public” redemption Jesus purchased for you.
(Hebrews 6:1-2)
