"We can do this."

 

    With those four simple words, two couples sought after the divine leading of God, said "Yes" to His will, and established a motorcycle ministry called F.A.I.T.H. Riders in February 2002.  What began as a four-person step of faith has grown into a team of many dedicated believers committed to the cause of Christ and to sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ on and with their motorcycles to any who will listen.  The ministry has expanded to seventeen churches, with more chapters getting ready to be born across Florida and the United States — chapters comprised of motorcycle riders and others passionate about sharing F.A.I.T.H. through Christian fellowship.

 

Each Commissioned Chapter of Faith Riders has a special responsibility to "set the standard" for the Ministry.  We only accomplish this through obedient surrender to the voice of the Father, and NOT by our own efforts.

 

The F.A.I.T.H. Riders blazon — their "colors" — consist of four primary colors and four symbols:

White

God's light and glory, in which all darkness disappears and there are no shadows.

Red

The blood of Jesus, which cleanses the sinner of all sin and makes him or her the righteous saint of God because of its being shed at the Cross.  Salvation to us is free, but its cost is priceless. It represents Jesus.

Blue

Regal, the color of royalty.  Our sins cost the life of the King of Kings, and He gave it willingly so we could have the way to salvation.  We are the only created being offered this gift.

Gold

Purity.  Gold can only be made pure by passing through a crucible's fire until the impurities are removed and the goldsmith can see his reflection on the surface of the metal.  This is a picture of what happens when a sinner passes through the blood of Jesus Christ.

The Cross

The symbol of where the Prince of Glory died.  The Cross on our colors is empty—the price of salvation is paid in full.  Our savior, Jesus Christ, ascended to heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father.  He is our advocate to the Father, seeing that the covenant provisions are being ministered to us.

The Flag

One God; a nation set apart as long as we give glory to the God who blesses the nations.

The Stars

There are only seven complete stars in the blazon.  Seven is a symbolic number in scripture that describes perfection and completeness. Everything in life is complete in Jesus Christ.

The Eagle

A bird of prey that represents power, justice, and God's forthcoming wrath upon the unholy.

 

The F.A.I.T.H. Riders are made up of people from all areas of life, but we do have a common interest — enjoyment and enthusiasm for motorcycles, all makes and models.  No matter what you ride - or even if you don't - all are welcome...
