About us:

 Non-denominational motorcycle outreach ministry covered under a church body at the local level and without officer positions or bylaws.

 

We will accomplish our vision through:

 

 

Mission:

 

"Some wish to live within the sound of church or chapel bells;

We want to run a rescue shop within a yard of Hell!!!"

 

 

BFC History:

Pastor Fred formed BFC under the conviction that it should be conducted under the church in order to be Biblically accountable.

Pastor Fred Z. was previously associated with non-Christian motorcycle clubs in Massachusetts, Arizona & Alaska before coming to Christ in 1977. After his conversion, he laid down his bike for awhile as he entered Bible college, got married and started a family. God opened the doors for Pastor Fred to pick up another scooter in 1979 which he used to start or help start at least four active motorcycle ministries. He was an elder in Christ's Motor Club in Los Angeles in the early eighties. He was also the Alaska state president of the I.C.B.A. (International Christian Biker Association) for four years.

Pastor Fred has also served as president of the California Chapter of Christ's Disciples & is a former senior pastor at a Calvary Chapel in Northern California.

Being involved in Christian motorcycle clubs & ministries for many years, he decided to start a new outreach ministry simply called; "Bikers For Christ". Fred states: "We also set forth to simplify our purpose & vision - without a lot of bylaws, constitutions, amendments, etc..." This ministry was carefully designed to be different than most clubs & ministries.

Some of the ways in which

BFC is unique are:

We are an International, inter-denominational ministry.
We do not have lofty titles like: "president", "vice-president", "secretary", etc. which can lead to pride.
We do not have a prospect process. You either are or aren't a member.
We trust the Holy Spirit to keep the membership in line. Each person is on their honor and commitment with God to walk straight as a minister of the Gospel and to lay their own back patch down if they backslide.
We do not act as "church police" and we do not shoot our wounded. We fully support other worthwhile motorcycle clubs and ministries.
We support multiple club memberships.
We do not have mandatory meetings.

Promotion of BFC in the first years occurred by word of mouth and by way of Fred's many travels on his bike, along with other dedicated members, to plant chapters. Even today, word of mouth seems to be the primary method of finding servants willing to help out in BFC.

Since that time BFC has grown to over 2,300 members (tripling in size since 2003). There are chapters in 49 states including Alaska & Hawaii & 10 countries.

Staying true to our original purpose, each BFC chapter operates under an elder and the local church. A national administrator oversees the regional elders, handles finances and merchandise as well as application filing and review.  

 

"Our goals for the future are to simply continue to spread the Gospel to who ever we meet, minister to those in need and provide spiritual help & services where we can. We look forward to continued growth and safety on the road."

 

The meaning of our patch:

 

 

Many people comment favorably about our patch. It has many interesting designs and colors. We run a simple two-piece patch, that claims "no territorial" rocker, or "M.C." designation. Our colors have been carefully and prayerfully chosen so as to not identify with or antagonize any other group.

Bottom Rocker: We have three colors on our bottom rocker - making no color claims whatsoever. The blue is a simple outline. The black symbolizes Jesus' death on the cross & that we are to be dead to sin & alive to Christ. The red symbolizes the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ whose blood was shed for the sins of the world. We acknowledge that we are all sinners (no better than anyone else), and that we too need the cleansing blood of Christ in our lives on a daily basis - cleansing & forgiving our sins - washing us whiter than snow.

Sword: The silver sword in the center of the patch symbolizes Hebrews 4:12 & Ephesians 6:17 which clearly state that the "Sword of the Spirit" is the Word of God and that it cuts to the heart.

Wings: The wings are symbolic of the Holy Spirit's presence & power in the life of the believer. They are in a myriad of colors so as to not identify with any other group.

Open Bible: This tells us that God's Word is to be opened, studied and applied to all areas of our daily life. We believe our lives should be an open book before the world, not full of jive and hypocrisy.

Flames: These, above the wings symbolize the fire of God - the Holy Spirit's purging influence as He burns the chaff off, cleansing and changing the believer's life. The "777" on the Sword: This symbolizes a trinity of perfection - Father, Son & Holy Spirit.!
