“Then God said, ‘Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.’” – Genesis 1:26
The House of Stokes stands as an official sovereign, ecclesiastical family government, established by God and ordained through covenant to reclaim and steward His original mandate given to humanity—dominion over the earth and all within it. Our mission is to restore and govern every estate, resource, identity, and inheritance rightfully assigned to our bloodline, exercising full authority under the divine jurisdiction of the Kingdom of Heaven.
We recognize the government of Heaven as real, tangible, and authoritative. We embrace and enact the restorative mission of Christ Jesus, whose very purpose, as revealed in Isaiah 9:6–7, was to establish and uphold the government of God:
“For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder... Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end.” – Isaiah 9:6–7
Our ecclesiastical mission includes:
“For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.” – Philippians 3:20
The vision of the House of Stokes Ecclesiastical Government is to fully manifest and model a sovereign nation-family—a holy Ecclesia that governs entirely from Heaven’s jurisdiction, principles, and constitutional authority. We are heirs of God, joint heirs with Christ (Romans 8:17), and our vision is to visibly establish, demonstrate, and expand God’s Kingdom governance on earth, fulfilling mankind's original Genesis 1:26 dominion mandate.
We see a world transformed as:
Our lives are dedicated to living out and revealing the realness of the Kingdom government restored by Jesus Christ—whose sole purpose was to bring mankind back under Heaven’s government, reconnecting humanity to the dominion and identity lost.
We affirm that our citizenship and inheritance are not earthly, but heavenly. We govern our lives, properties, children, businesses, and ministries from this jurisdictional truth, inviting all who encounter us to witness and experience the power, justice, and love of the Kingdom of Heaven.
