For believers, Christ's calling and commission includes three parts: 'Follow me, and I will make you become fishers of men' (Mark 1:17, Luke 5:10), 'Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations' (Matthew 28:19-20), and 'Take care of my sheep' (John 21:15-17). When all three of these components become daily repeated experiences the believers are assimilated. This project has four main components. First, a biblical study intended to determine the biblical assimilation principles that effectually work in believers' lives. Second, a literature study to discover the theological factors that affect the assimilation process of believers into the functioning body. Third, two case studies of American leading churches through survey questionnaires and onsite interviews and observation. Fourth, the results of the studies are the functional factors in formulating the assimilation principles for the Chinese Bible Church of Jakarta, Indonesia. From the assimilation and church growth literature review and the biblical study ten significant assimilation principles were selected for this study. Each principle was present in the first century church (Acts 2:42-47) and in the life of Christ. These ten include: (1) prayer, (2) pastoral leadership, (3) lay leadership, (4) vision, (5) small groups, (6) spiritual gifts, (7) discipleship, (8) evangelism, (9) preaching and teaching, and (10) worship.
