Martial Artists for Christ

Becoming a Great Warrior

Christian martial artists become great warriors. God calls us to protect ourselves and others from threat and harm. It is better to avoid a single conflict than to win 1000 battles; in other words, force is only allowed when absolutely crucial. Christian martial artists are committed to protect and defend the souls of all people by bringing them to their one and only savior, Jesus Christ.

Being A Child of God

Christian martial artists are ALWAYS students and NEVER masters; black belt is not the end of a Christian walk, it is a new beginning. It is a transitioning privilege to the level of teacher, without losing the mind-set of student. Even though a child of God becomes an adult on earth, and inherits a new set of duties, he/she never ceases to be a child of God.

Undertaking the Great Commission

Christian martial artists are God's helpers. They go to all the corners of the earth and help Him bring the lost sheep home. They do what they can to help people come to know Jesus Christ.

The Christian Black Belt

Christian black belts are equipped to bring all of the above ideals together and teach the Gospel through a Christian martial arts ministry. They are disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ and work for God, by using their martial arts talents and every other gift that the Lord has bestowed them with.

Christian Martial Arts Pledge

Christian martial artists pledge allegiance to the cross of their Savior in much the same way that nationals pledge allegiance to the flag of their country and soldiers pledge allegiance to defend and protect their country. It is a great honor to be a Christian martial artist, but a great responsibility also.

If you are a Christian martial artist, this pledge is for you. Say it daily before your workouts and know who your master is in everything you are and do (JESUS is the MASTER!).

I pledge allegiance to the cross
of my Lord, Jesus Christ,
and to the love
for which it stands ...
one Savior, everlasting,
indivisible
with mercy and grace
for all.
~Amen
