HOME CELL GROUPS

• A home cell:

• - Is a tool or vehicle whereby evangelism in the Church must be done.

• - Is a way to incorporate and to develop new Christians to spiritual maturity and into the Church.

• - Provides fellowship, follow - up and nurture for new Christians.

• - Operates through a home cell leader with one assistant home cell leader.

• Is also the place to:

• - equip the members for the work of the ministry.

• - possibly train and release every member as a missionary.

• - if members have a problem this can also be sorted out on cell level. It has a Biblical Foundation. Churches were started out of houses. The New Testament uses the term ‘church’ for a gathering of Christians.
  

• Romans 16:5, ‘Likewise greet the church that is in their house’.

• Colossians 4:15, ‘Salute the brethren which are in Laodicea , and Nymphas, and the church which is in his house’. People went from house to house serving each other, Acts 2:46.

• 1 Corinthians 16:19, ‘The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house’.

The people in a home cell penetrate into the community, reaching people in more personal way. The home cell has a vision for reaching the entire community, not just a part of it. They seek to insert a home cell in every neighbourhood. Their evangelism includes the powerful witness of Jesus Christ working within His body.
