ABOUT WSL MINISTRY

THE WORD IS SPIRIT AND LIFE MINISTRY is Jesus Christ’s own church, which He set His servant Apostle Éloge Lumisa to oversee. Jesus Christ is the founder of the church. The name of the ministry was given through the Holy Ghost to His servant. Many may wonder why this name? The name of the ministry is not a name in itself but God’s statement to the continent of North America and the entire world. The mystery of the name is this: God is saying to the nations that His Word is Spirit and Life and therefore has the ability to quicken us spiritually, it has the ability to set us free from our chains, to heal us, to deliver us and to save us. God’s Word is not empty, it is not dead. If we claim to speak God’s Word yet it does not bring results then it’s not God’s Word but our own words. As Apostle Éloge explained in the sermon introducing this ministry THE WORD IS SPIRIT AND LIFE , if the words he speaks does not bring result it means he is speaking of himself and not pronouncing God’s Word because God’s Word is not dead. The Word that comes out of the mouth of God will not go back to Him empty, it shall accomplish what He sent it out to do. Isaiah 55:11

OUR MISSION

JESUS CHRIST MISSION IS OUR MISSION which is to win souls for the kingdom of God. We are simply building on the foundation which has been laid by Jesus Christ. It's a rare privilege to be called by God to do His work. The assignment is very clear: To transform the world through His Word and by His Spirit (Rom 12:2)

WHAT WE BELIEVE

The Holy Spirit worked with the Father and the Son to create the world. The Father gave His Spirit to make us like His Son, Jesus Christ. The Jesus Christ we know is Jesus in the power of the Holy Spirit. He made a wonderful promise in John 14:16-17: “I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Counselor to be with you forever — the Spirit of Truth. The world cannot accept Him, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him. But you know Him, for He lives with you and will be in you.”The Holy Spirit is to be with us forever. He is not known or received by everyone, but only by those who are prepared for Him. The Holy Spirit shows us how wrong our sins are. He helps us to accept Jesus Christ as our Saviour. He completely changes our lives. This is called being converted or born again.

Jesus Christ is a soul-winner. That is what He came for, lived for, died for and rose again for. He came to restore the relationship and fellowship between God and man. As to His human nature, Jesus Christ was a descendant of David. As to His divine nature, He was shown with great power to be the Son of God by being raised from death on the third day. Now He sits at the right hand of the throne of God (Hebrews 12:2; Romans 1:2-4). He was at all points tempted just as we are, yet was without sin. Jesus Christ loves us, died for us, reigns in power for us and still prays for us.

Holy men of God were carried along by the Holy Spirit as they spoke the message that came from God. The Holy Bible is more than long-ago events and ancient wisdom. It is God’s message of grace and truth to us today (2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21).

Sin points one to eternal death and destruction but God’s Word points one to life. If Christ Jesus is our Lord and Saviour, a new body, a new soul and a new spirit await us one day. God’s Spirit joins Himself to our spirit to declare that we are God’s children (Romans 8:16).

Salvation is to be set free from sin and its penalties and is received by faith in the cleansing power of the Blood of Jesus Christ. Each man has to accept Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Savior, otherwise Jesus’ death will not save him.

God’s Word refreshes our minds while God’s Spirit renews our strength. To be born again, not only must we have God’s Word but also His Spirit, mixed with repentance and faith in our hearts.

Divine healing is the supernatural power of God bringing health to the human body. It is received by faith in the finished work of our Lord Jesus Christ. All the punishment Jesus Christ received before and during His crucifixion was for our healing – spirit, soul and body. By His stripes, we are healed. Divine healing was included in the benefits that Jesus Christ bought for us at Calvary.

Water baptism and baptism in the Holy Spirit. We also believe in speaking in tongues as the Spirit of God gives utterance (Acts 2:4). All who enter into the number of the body of Christ do so because they are baptized in the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 12:13; Romans 8:9). When you are baptized in the Holy Spirit, God’s power will come upon you as it did on the first disciples on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2:1-4). When God’s power comes upon you, the Holy Spirit will affect everything about you. The Holy Spirit produces rivers of life, joy, love, peace and power to flow out of your spirit for the needs of others (John 7:37-38).

The Lord’s Supper as was celebrated by Jesus Christ and His disciples in Matthew 26:26-28 “While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to His disciples, saying, ‘Take and eat; this is My body.’ Then He took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, ‘Drink from it, all of you. This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.” As the disciples of old were instructed to partake of the Lord’s Supper by Jesus Christ, we also partake of the Lord’s Supper (2 Peter 1:4), upon the instruction of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 2:10; 11:26-31).

Jesus Christ will come again, just as He went away (Acts 1:11; 1 Thessalonians. 4:16-17).
