House Church Ministries Part 2 - Jerold Keeling
God’s focus on the leaders: assume your identity and be focused!
“There once was a man sent by God , his name John.” In reality, this was not only John the Baptizer’s identity. It is also the identity of every disciple of Jesus. It is impossible to be a disciple without being a missionary on a mission. John was sent by God and so are we. So, where are you from? The geographic answer to this question was totally and beautifully international, but…the spiritual and missional answer was only one. We are from heaven, sent by God. We must assume this identity. Nothing else is worthy of his calling.
Yes, we are sent by God and, like John, we have a mission. “… to point out the way to the Life-Light. He came to show everyone where to look, who to believe in.” This was said of John and can be said of each of us.
To remain focused, we must remember two things. We must be aware and get rid of (1) everything that gets in the way, and (2) the sin which holds on to us so tightly. (Hebrews 12.1-3) In this talk, we meditate on the effect of these two elements and voice a precaution regarding their effects in our faith, our life, our ministry.
