門徒稱為「基督徒」是從安提阿起首。(使徒行傳11:26)

「安提阿華人福音教會」期望成為本地華人的幫助，成為一個名符其實的安提阿教會；一個充滿愛的教會，一個給與的教會，一個供應的教會。

這個教會要帶出屬靈的復興，活出屬靈的盼望，幫助有需要的人重新站起來再出發，經歷神，見證神，傳揚神的愛；如同我們當時受到神的接納，幫助一樣。

求神引領，「安提阿華人福音教會」期盼成為一個合神心意的教會，一個合神心意的教會具有以下屬靈特質:

一. 對神敬拜讚美

1. 神喜悅的敬拜: 把人，把自己帶到神的面前

2. 神同在的敬拜: 由聖靈掌管全心全人

3. 感謝神的敬拜: 活出神學知識的屬靈成熟生命

二. 彼此關懷造就

1. 彼此關懷: 關懷我們週遭有需要的鄰舍，正如神為我們所做的一樣

2. 彼此接納: 在神的愛中接納並包容彼此的優缺點，正如神接納我們一樣

3. 彼此建立: 在神的愛中，幫助彼此重新站起來，正如神扶持我們一樣

三. 對人見證神恩

1. 成為合一的見證: 共同領受來自天上的帶領，活出基督

2. 成為社區的幫助: 幫助華人在社區中彼此認識，共同生存

3. 成為福音的出口: 成為這地的幫助，見證基督

“The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch.” – Acts 11:26

The goal of Antioch Chinese Gospel Church is to make difference in local Chinese community just like the Antioch Church did in the Bible; to be a church of Love, a church of giving, and a church of offering help. This Church shall bring about a spiritual revival, bring about hope, and help people in need to start a new life that not only would experience God’s existence, but also would witness God and spread His love to others.

May God help ACGC to become a church that follows God’s will. A church that follows God’s will should be:

A. Worshiping God

1. A God-pleasing worship: to bring people and ourselves to God.

2. A God-dwelling worship: that we are lifted by the Holy Spirit.

3. A thanksgiving worship: to live out a life of spiritual growth from knowing and experiencing God’s greatness.

B. Caring and helping each other

1. Caring each other: to help our neighbors in need, just like how God helped us.

2. Accepting each other: to accept each other as who he/she is according to God’s love, just like how God accepted us.

3. Build up each other: to revive each other in love, just like how God is helping and reviving us.

C. Witnessing God’s grace

1. In unity: to live out a Christ-like life as a group with the guidance from above.

2. In helping the community: to help Chinese people in our community to connect, bind, and thrive.

3. In spreading the Gospel: to help this community by witnessing Jesus and glorifying God so people would know the Gospel.
