We are the youth ministry of Victory Baptist Church,
and our mission is three-fold:
1. A clear presentation of the gospel of Jesus Christ, and the Plan of Salvation.
2. Teaching and activities that will increase the faith of the youth of Victory.
3. Application of learning to real life experiences.
Phosphoros comes out of II Peter 1:19 where it says,
“We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well
that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place,
until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts”.
The word ‘day star’ is translated from the Greek word ‘phosphoros’, and it means
‘light-bearing’. This is where we draw our inspiration from, for we know that Jesus is
the ‘Day Star’, and the ultimate source of light to all of mankind. Phosphoros is not
simply a name that we have chosen to go by; instead it is a lifestyle we have chosen
to embrace. It is the call to learn as much as we can in our youth, so that God will be able
to direct our future. It is about discovering the talents and abilities that God has blessed
us with, and where we might best use these for Him.
Phosphoros is about Jesus, ‘The Way’ – ‘The Truth’ – ‘The Life’
SHINE!
