Ark of Jesus Christ Ministries - Pattukkottai

The Founder :

Pastor. Kaivalyam David was born as the last son in a family of 8 children. His father was an atheist and mother was a secret protestant Christian. At the age of 13 his mother passed away and shortly after 2 years he lost his father too. One day when he was fast asleep he suddenly heard his brothers discussing about who would take care of him, his studies and other necessities. The sad plight was none of his brothers were willing to take care of him.

It was a very pathetic situation , he felt that he was almost an an orphan. The pain was too heavy to bear, the loss of his parents and the state of being an orphan made him leave home without anybody’s knowledge to Chennai city. He roamed in the streets with hunger and tears rolling down his cheeks wandering like a lost sheep, homeless and none to care.

Sometime later he found a job to support himself but it was a place of sin to work, soon he quit the job and was employed in a Christian shop. The shopkeeper took him to a church, this was the very first time in his life to step into a church. The message given at the church touched his heart and kindled a hope within to live because there is a living God.Therefore he held on to this faith that he believed which made him accept Christ as his personal saviour, committed to obey to the waters of baptism.

When he heard the truth of Holy Spirit he says ‘I was neither able to believe nor deny the power of God, so I prayed in few words that if I could experience the touch of the HOLY SPIRIT I would accept JESUS CHRIST as my Lord and dedicate my life to serve GOD’.

The loving Lord heard his prayer and filled him abundantly with his power. He was unable to control the power of God and was filled totally ..

When he received the power of the Holy Spirit, he immediately felt amazingly happy. It wiped away all his tears , the long pain, loneliness, and agony, which had a strong hold since the demise of his parents – were now totally healed. The founder joyfully says that, ‘By the abundant grace, mercy and love of God I received special anointing of the the gifts of Holy Spirit and received the calling of an apostle so therefore dedicated to bear the sufferings of Christ in the field of ministry. Right from the age of 17 till this day the Lord has blessed this ministry abundantly by winning 1000 souls for Christ and planting churches in areas where gospel was not sown. The Lord has blessed me with a beautiful gift,my wife Priya who stands as a great support for me in the field of Family and Ministry.the Lord has blessed us with 2 sons Jude and Jonathan. Together as Family we are serving the Lord .“I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth”.Psa 34:1.

Our Beliefs:

The Bible is the infallible Word of God, inspired by the Holy Spirit, and contains every answer to man’s problems.

There is one God, existing eternally in three persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

CREATION:

Man is created in the image of God but separated from God by sin. Without Jesus we cannot have a relationship with God.
Genesis 1:26; 1 Timothy 2:5

SALVATION
We can have a personal relationship with God through salvation, God’s free gift to man. It is not a result of what we do, but it is only available through God’s unearned favor. By admitting we have sinned and believing in the death, burial and resurrection of Christ, and accepting Him as Lord, we can spend eternity with God.
Ephesians 2:8,9; Romans 5:1; Romans 3:24

WATER BAPTISM:

We believe in water baptism, as taught and demonstrated by Jesus, as the way for believers to identify with the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus.
