The Beliefs Of The Las Vegas Foursquare Churches

By Dennis Baker


Everyone has the right to express ones religion may differ in the practices used and how they show their undying devotion but at some point they all lead to one common denominator and that is their strong faith as they share one holy God. In a world population, there are over four thousand two hundred religions all over the globe and to top it all Christianity got the most followers. Among the major religions under Christianity is the Las Vegas foursquare churches that can be seen just anywhere in Las Vegas.

Behind all the majestic building is the gifted lady named Aimee Semple McPherson who started it all. She is an American evangelist to be exact a miracle worker as a matter of fact she is what you call the messenger of God. Back then on the year of one thousand nine hundred eighteen exactly of August her prayers healed a lot of all hopelessly ill proven by the American Medical Association report.

Her death was not the end of the story it was rather a lovely beginning as her founded church enlarged in numbers to be exact two hundred thousand belongs to America and as for the worldwide there are 1.5 million loyal members. There are some points that this catholic proves that they outstand when it comes to beliefs and that made it the reason why it just got so many followers.

Sadly, she died but little do they know death was just the beginning of new era for the foursquare church to reign. Imagine there are two hundred thousand members in America alone plus the continuing spread of greater number than 1.5 million devotees in all other countries. It is with no surprise that this church will be living with many followers as the coming years go because they have a strong foundation on their faith to their religion to the extent they are becoming more than any other religion there is.

At most time, you will notice mostly males presides the mass to share the wisdom of God but on the hands of this church group anyone can be as long as they have willingness to serve as lambs of the Great Sheppard. McPherson was the reason why this church values gender equality because you are all family and everyone just have the right to express their love for one another especially to Father who unconditionally love you.

The church has also have their own logo which symbolically sends a message. In their logo it starts with a force shield subdivided with emblematic figures of a cross, chalice, dove and a crown. The cross signifies his sacrifice just for the salvation of humanity from all sins above, chalice tells that he is the image of baptism that cleansed your soul as for the dove it represents freedom from the illness that made your soul hungry and thirsty and lastly the crown the most important of all that he is the king who will come again.

What is common between the day of your very own birth and death is that you are granted with bounty of gifts which are faith, healing, miracles, wisdom, discernment, Interpretation, knowledge and tongues. One of those is highly practiced by the church and that is speaking with tongues which is included in the congregation experience of every Christian.

The church structural support of are the directors composing international board of responsible for which involves in making the right decisions in the betterment sake of the foundation. As of now the one that presides as the head of the church is Pastor Jack Hayford. They appoint designated local pastors in every area basing on the booklet of membership in foursquare church.
