He also said, "Blessed be the LORD , the God of Shem!  May Canaan be the slave of Shem.  May God extend the territory of Japheth; may Japheth live in the tents of Shem, and may Canaan be his slave." (Genesis 9:26-27)

And in 1998 wrote a short discipleship Bible course for beginners to the Christian faith that is immediately suited and ready to be put in place for the coming British and world revival.  This was used to start Praise Revival Church in the same year.

Personal Beliefs

Pastor Stephen is very passionate about family and marriage values. He submits to the full authority of Scripture, and also accepts and fully endorses the Basis of Faith of the Evangelical Alliance UK.

Pastor Stephen believes salvation is by God's grace (unmerited favour) and that in order to become born again (saved), you need to believe in your heart that Christ did indeed die in the flesh as your atoning sacrifice for your sins, and was risen from the dead by God and is now seated at the right hand of the Father in heaven. You need to confess and fully accept Christ Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour and repent of all known sin. Giving your life to Jesus and deciding to follow Him is a whole of life experience and therefore involves your spirit, soul and body anything less than total commitment is not acceptable to God.
