The Lion of Judah, Assemblies of God Church
is a bilingual (Spanish &
English) Bible-based, Christ-centered
church that has embarked on a journey to continually
experience the power and fullness of God. Here
our services are performed in a bilingual environment
where everything is translated live.
We understand that people are no longer seeking to go
to church that will appease their mind and soul into
thinking that God is only up in heaven and does not
actively deal in our every day life. Here at the Lion
of Judah, A/G we seek God in His entirety. From the
start of our super-charged
praise and worship to our dynamic
and uplifting preaching of the
Word of God we experience
power-filled and spirit-anointed services where
the Lord Jesus Christ touches the lives
of all who seek Him and changes their soul forever.
We also recognize that the family unit is
of utmost importance. This is why we offer a spectrum
of ministries and services that serve every member of
the family (see Ministries).
We Believe
WE BELIEVE...
The Scriptures are Inspired
by God and declare His design and plan for mankind.
WE BELIEVE...There is only One True God-revealed in three
persons...Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (commonly known
as the Trinity).
WE BELIEVE...In the Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ. As
God's son Jesus was both human and divine.
WE BELIEVE...though originally good, Man Willingly Fell
to Sin-ushering evil and death, both physical and spiritual,
into the world.
WE BELIEVE...Every Person Can Have Restored Fellowship
with God Through 'Salvation' (accepting Christ's offer
of forgiveness for sin). [1 of 4 cardinal doctrines of
the A/G]
WE BELIEVE...and practice two ordinances-(1) Water Baptism
by Immersion after repenting of one's sins and receiving
Christ's gift of salvation, and (2) Holy Communion (the
Lord's Supper) as a symbolic remembrance of Christ's suffering
and death for our salvation.
WE BELIEVE...the Baptism in the Holy Spirit is a Special
Experience Following Salvation that empowers believers
for witnessing and effective service, just as it did in
New Testament times. [1 of 4 cardinal doctrines of the
A/G]
WE BELIEVE... The Initial Physical Evidence of the Baptism
in the Holy Spirit is 'Speaking in Tongues,' as experienced
on the Day of Pentecost and referenced throughout Acts
and the Epistles.
WE BELIEVE...Sanctification Initially Occurs at Salvation
and is not only a declaration that a believer is holy,
but also a progressive lifelong process of separating
from evil as believers continually draw closer to God
and become more Christlike.
WE BELIEVE...The Church has a Mission to seek and save
all who are lost in sin. We believe 'the Church' is the
body_text of Christ and consists of the people who, throughout
time, have accepted God's offer of redemption (regardless
of religious denomination) through the sacrificial death
of His son Jesus Christ.
WE BELIEVE...A Divinely Called and Scripturally Ordained
Leadership Ministry Serves the Church. The Bible teaches
that each of us under leadership must commit ourselves
to reach others for Christ, to worship Him with other
believers, and to build up or edify the body_text of believers-the
Church.
WE BELIEVE...Divine Healing of the Sick is a Privilege
for Christians Today and is provided for in Christ's atonement
(His sacrificial death on the cross for our sins). [1
of 4 cardinal doctrines of the A/G]
WE BELIEVE...in The Blessed Hope-When Jesus Raptures His
Church Prior to His Return to Earth (the second coming).
At this future moment in time all believers who have died
will rise from their graves and will meet the Lord in
the air, and Christians who are alive will be caught up
with them, to be with the Lord forever. [1 of 4 cardinal
doctrines of the A/G]
WE BELIEVE...in The Millennial Reign of Christ when Jesus
returns with His saints at His second coming and begins
His benevolent rule over earth for 1,000 years. At that
time many in the nation of Israel will recognize and accept
Him as the Messiah, the Savior who died for them and all
mankind.
WE BELIEVE...A Final Judgment Will Take Place for those
who have rejected Christ. They will be judged for their
sin and consigned to eternal punishment in a punishing
lake of fire.
WE BELIEVE...and look forward to the perfect New Heavens
and a New Earth that Christ is preparing for all people,
of all time, who have accepted Him. We will live and dwell
with Him there forever following His millennial reign
on Earth. 'And so shall we forever be with the Lord!'
Our Pastors
Pastors Elizer
(Elliot) & Ruth Agron are both founders and Senior Pastors
of the Lion of Judah, A/G Church. Born and raised in
the same church, Pastors Elliot & Ruth were extremely
active in the church throughout their youth. They were
married on September 14, 1991 and received the Pastoral calling
soon after.
Pastors Elliot & Ruth focus heavily on
strengthening the family unit. This focus is fueled
by their belief that strong, God-filled families are
the foundation that enables the church to spread the
Gospel throughout the local community and the world.
Today they are the very proud parents of
two beautiful daughters ~ Christina Nicole and Brianna
