The Field Guide for followers of Christ is for those pursuing a
life of discipleship under the Lordship of Jesus Christ to advance
His Kingdom on earth. It contains instructions for personal
ministry and is a helpful and convenient guide for individual or
small group use in personal ministry settings, in evangelism and
missions outreach, on prayer teams, or in settings where you have
the opportunity to minister to individuals with the love and power
of Christ. The primary emphasis is upon the person and ministry of
the Lord Jesus Christ who is both present in us and with us when we
gather in His Name. Therefore, the material provided in this Field
Guide is not a program or series of steps to follow. We pray it
will guide you into having a dynamic and interactive encounter with
Jesus Christ through the counsel and empowerment of the Holy Spirit
along with others He has gifted in His Body, the Church. You will
be able to experientially participate with Jesus in His life and
ministry of proclaiming the Good News and seeing others set free.
From observing the Gospel accounts, we see that the most essential
characteristics of Jesus' life and ministry that we must understand
and practice are: Consistent and purposeful dependence on the
Father through the Holy Spirit's counsel and empowerment.
Expressions of authority and power evident in His teaching,
healing, and encounters with Satan and the Kingdom of darkness.
Obedience to the Father to advance His Kingdom through the
declaration and assertion of God's truth. Similarly, in the Book of
Acts we observe how the early church continues the ministry of
Jesus. They, too, demonstrated a vital dependence on the Holy
Spirit to empower and guide them in every area of life. Instead of
a simplistic presentation of Gospel or a programmatic approach to
evangelism, we see these early disciples continuing the same
ministry Jesus began - preaching not only the message about Jesus
but the Good News of the Kingdom which was central to Jesus'
teaching. They also continued Jesus' ministry and the commission He
gave them to heal the sick, cast out demons and raise the dead as
part of their message of the Good News. Their message, as the
Apostle Paul says, was given with not only words but with a
demonstration of the Spirit's power that led to believing faith.
The power and authority of Christ is now available to all believers
through the Holy Spirit who was sent to them (Acts 1:8;
3:1-9;13:9-12;16:16-18).
