Our Mission...

The Memorial Tabernacle Church has come together by the Holy Spirit for the specific purpose of preaching and teaching the word of God, (the Bible), and about Jesus Christ, God's son, and to proclaim the gospel of the Kingdom of God to the North Oakland Community and its environs; to bring healing to the brokenhearted and deliverance to the oppressed.

Summer Rains!

A Special Invitation from Pastor

Hear the anointed preached Word! God is doing a "new thing" at MTC. We are believing God for one hundred souls coming to Christ.

Join us each Sunday during the Summer Rains!

Notes From Sunday's Sermon

"A ROYAL ADOPTION" ( Genesis 17:1-11)

To obtain God as Father is not a result of one's own merit, but a result of Christ's. The one who believes in Christ as Savior enters into the blessed Father-child relationship with God solely on the grounds of Christ's sonship. "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, 'Abba, Father' (Rom. 8:15, 16).

In other words, man is not saved by race, but rather he is saved by a legal act called adoption, something Jesus had to remind the Jews of when He said, "But as many received Him, to them He gave the right to become the child of God, even to those who believed in His name, who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God" (John 1:12-13).

When Abraham ratified his covenant with God, he was given a new inheritance. As a result of his adoption, he was told by God, "I will make you exceedingly fruitful; and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come from you . . . Also I will give to you and your descendants after you the land in which you are stranger, all the land of Canaan, as an everlasting possession" (vs. 6-8). He was actually considered an orphan, which is a person with no inheritance, but he moved from this status to that of an adopted son and he received and inheritance.

I'm a child of the King! -- USK
