Who Is DTG
Welcome to DTGministries
DTG is an acronym for Deep Things of God. Because we are
dedicated to the advancement of God's love we set the foundation for strong
communities.
We organize regular meetings for the strengthening of God's
people that they might better experiece their ministry of edifying the body of
Christ.
Who We Are
DTGministries is a non-profit religious organization that
promotes biblical principals for practical life applications. Our outreach is to bring deliverance through
understanding God's love to people and families who are searching for answers to temporary set-backs due to
divorce, unemployment, illness, or other life-changing events.
What We Do
Upon invitation we travel to churches and/or home groups to
conduct teaching as part of the inviting churches' service or conference. We seek to help individuals
receive an understanding of Calvary that will make their heavenly Father more of a reality in their
life. Knowing God's love through Christ is the foundation of our teaching.
What We Believe

God is love. (1John 4:8) If this be true then we can learn a lot about Him by applying
this conviction to 1Corinthians 13: 4-8:
God is long-suffering, kind, does not envy, does not boast, is not prideful, does not
act unseemly, does not seek His own things, is not easily provoked, does not impute
evil, rejoices not over iniquity but rejoices with the truth; He bears all things,
believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things. God never fails!
The importance of grasping the character of God can not be over estimated when trying
to understand the gospel. One attribute of love listed above is, love does not impute
evil. The scriptures bear this out in
2Corinthians 5:19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself,
not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of
reconciliation.
Hence, the purpose of this ministry:
We are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did call you by us: we pray you in behalf
of Christ, be reconciled to God.
God does not keep a list of sins, we do. We have guilt and shame because of what we
have done to others, and we have resentment, bitterness, and anger because of what
others have done to us. The purpose of the gospel is to set us free from all sin. Being
able to know we are forgiven (for our sins) and being able to forgive those who have
wronged us (who's sins we carry in our memories). Understanding Calvary does just
that.
If God does not keep a record of sin then Christ did not die to appease God's justice.
God is just in not keeping a record of individual sin. How can (spiritually) crippled
people keep from responding to one another in anger in the face of the wounds they have
accumulated throughout their lives? It is obvious they are hurt and just as obvious
they will hurt others. The purpose of the cross is not for God to see us differently
but for us to see Him as love. Recognizing the wounds we carry we can better understand
the world knowing they are as wounded as we are, thus giving us the ability to love our
enemies. The wages of (carrying) sin (ours and others) is death, but God's gift to the
world is eternal life, for those who have ears to hear.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever
believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world
through him might be saved. John 3:16-17
If one can believe God actually allowed His Son to die at Calvary, then one can see the
long-suffering, patience, kindness, and understanding He manifested during that death.
God used the death of His Son to manifest love toward those who killed Him. The power
of the cross lies not in the death of Christ, but in the fact God allowed it. To take
the Father out of the picture takes away the passion of the Father's love and causes us
to miss the point: God loves us as much as He loves His only begotten Son. By realizing
this truth, we become children of God and joint heirs with Christ. We have power to
forgive and be healed of all spiritual disease. We have power to live a life of
love. |
