                             NCCC Seal



Bishop Douglas & Lady Alice Taylor and the New Covenant Christian Church at large, welcome you to NCCC's website.  We are a Bible believing, Bible teaching church.  We love God and we most certainly love God's people. 
We pray that this website will be a blessing to all who visit.  It is our desire to point the way to Jesus.  For He has said that "if we lift Him up, He will draw all men unto Him".  If you are in the Cleveland area, stop by and join us in worshipping the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.  His name is Jesus!

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised.  To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.

Luke 4: 18, 19

Bishop's Training for Reigning

 What Is God Like?

Our Lord...who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords; who alone possesses immortality and dwells in unapproachable light...To Him be honor and eternal dominion! 1 Timothy 6:14-16

However you answer the question, What is God like? three very important areas of your life wil lbe affected: your morality, integrity and your life style.

Students of history will quickly affirm there is a marked relationship between what people think about God and their behavior.  When a nation or a group of people have a low concept of God, their ethics and morality were always affected.  What comes to mind as you think of God reveals a great deal about life; and on the basis of what you tell me about God, I can, in all probability, tell you a great deal about the three areas I mentioned earlier.  Your concept of God is to your life what a foundation is to a house, what a periodic chart to research in a laboratory.  It is fundamental in setting parameters of reality and behavior.  If you have a low view of God, you tend to have a low view of responsibility.

When our concept of God is low our behavior is affected, which leads me to conclude that scores of individuals, including many Christian leaders, have a pretty low view of God.  How can it be otherwise when the lives of many who consider themselves "born-again Christians" are so little different from the person who is an unbeliever?

Many today know a great deal about God without really knowing Him.  They know the creeds and the liturgy, sing the hymns, know when to bow and rise, all without knowing the reality of His presence.  Others refuse to accept the burden of accountability, and therefore, have a blind spot in their thinking, which leads them to further bondage.  A college student once said, "I cannot believe in God and live the kind of life I want to live," so he proclaimed himself an atheist, though he knew deep down that what he hoped to avoid was accountability by clothing himself in a garment of irresponsibility.

What you think about when the concept of God is mentioned tells a great deal about yourself.
