How wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ! Consider the stories Jesus told to describe the Father's forgiveness!

Let Jesus' mission be our mission: Be a disciple, make disciples, teach your children and make disciples of them.

We need the Holy Spirit in these times so that we can say in days to come, "We planned and we worked, yet not us but the Spirit of God in us willing and doing His good pleasure."

We were born into wrath, ruled by the desires of the body, bent on being independent of God. In that condition God loved us: "while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." He saved us from wrath and delivered us from slavery to sin. Through Christ we have the possibility to walk according to the Spirit.

Sam talks about the great need of disciples in the church. It's not a matter of new technique, not a fresh style of how to do ministry, not a new building. What we need is living experience with the Holy Spirit.

To be a Disciple I must spend time with Jesus, love Jesus supremely, love other disciples, always do what Christ has me to do, serve others unselfishly.

Ask what He would have you do.

We know we know Him and Follow him when we obey Him, walking in the Spirit.

You must be ready. Keep watch. Be on guard.

"But concerning that day or that hour, no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father." Mark 13:32

Earth actually hosts another kingdom, in opposition to the plan, purposes, rule and reign of God.
