THE PUARC INSTITUTE

"Servanthood Discipling toward fulfillment of the Great Commission of Jesus Christ"
Elder Dennis G. Peterson, Ecumenical Patriarch

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. He made all things; and without him was not anything made that was made. . . . moreover, the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us. . . he was in the world, and although the world was made by him, the world knew him not. He came unto his own ethnic people, and his people received him not. But unto us that believe on his name, we gaze upon his glory, his dignity as the only begotten of God the Father, full of grace and truth." (John 1:1-14)
