| An Apostle |
I was Born in Vicksburg, Mississippi and attended
Temple High School in Vicksburg and later moved
to Massachusetts where I became a student at
Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary.
Later I was licensed and ordained by the
Macedonia Baptist church, 146 Norfolk Street,
Dorchester, MA. After serving in Macedonia for
eight years, I was lead by the Spirit of God to
establish a ministry which was named by my wife,
Joyce Farris, who was later ordained and given the
office of a Prophetess.

The Hidden Oppositions
The Hidden Oppositions
| The name Greater Life Baptist Church derives from many different experiences my wife and I have had in our venture in leading people out of destruction into the way of Salvation through the Great Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. I have no account of how many people have been made free from captivity, only God knows; but I will say the number is great. The Ministry has withstood many oppositions and great criticism, but by the Spirit of God, we never gave up. In my life I have come to realize that no one can dominate the will and way of God. The greatest opposition occurred when God gave me the title "Bishop", which was not a custom in the Baptist Church, God had given me great insight in that area. After reading the Word over and over again, God allowed me to see the serious devastating error in the Baptist denomination. In the Book of Acts - The overseers are the Apostles of God, given the highest authority and great responsibility over the House of God. My intention is not to change the way of the Baptist Denomination, my intention is to do it God's way. God never intended for Deacons to boss Pastors, or hire and fire a Pastor. A Pastor should not be afraid of the Deacons. The Deacons should be subject to the authority of the Pastor, who has to give an account for the whole body of Christ, including the Deacons. Therefore, God gave me the title of "Bishop" and later the office of an "Apostle", which is the first office of the five-fold ministry (Ephesians 4:11). Therefore I take on the responsibility found the Gospel of Luke 4:18 and Matthew 10:1. A full functioning ministry We should never be afraid to use the phrase demon or devil, which the church appears to be afraid of in these last days. The devil has robbed the church and taken it hostage. It's time to take it back! Jesus Christ said "upon this rock I will build my Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it". |
