Promise Keepers is a Christian organization for men. While it originated in the United States, independent branches are established in Canada and New Zealand. It is self-described as "a Christ-centered organization dedicated to introducing men to Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord, helping them to grow as Christians". Promise Keepers is a non-profit organization, not affiliated with any Christian church or denomination. Their most widely publicized events tend to be mass rallies held at football stadiums and similar venues. They also sell a variety of promotional products to "help men keep their promises," including clothing, books, and music. Bruce Wilkinson developed the widely used video curriculum, ''Personal Holiness in Times of Temptation'', as a part of "The Biblical Manhood" series for Promise Keepers. ==Beliefs== The core beliefs of the Promise Keepers, outlined in the ''Seven Promises'', consist of the following: # A Promise Keeper is committed to honoring Jesus Christ through worship, prayer and obedience to God's Word in the power of the Holy Spirit. # A Promise Keeper is committed to pursuing vital relationships with a few other men, understanding that he needs brothers to help him keep his promises. # A Promise Keeper is committed to practising spiritual, moral, ethical and sexual purity. # A Promise Keeper is committed to building strong marriages and families through love, protection, and Biblical values. # A Promise Keeper is committed to supporting the mission of his church by honoring and praying for his pastor and by actively giving his time and resources. # A Promise Keeper is committed to reaching beyond any racial and denominational barriers to demonstrate the power of Biblical unity. # A Promise Keeper is committed to influencing his world, being obedient to the Great Commandment (Mark 12:30-31) and the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Promise Keepers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
