Repentance from dead works and faith toward God are foundational doctrines undergirding everything that is. Some of us never get to the bedrock of Christ because we've never established the foundations.

Repentance is a supernatural change of mind as we change our thinking to think more like Christ. Repentance is the message that makes us ready to receive the Lord. When

The gospel begins with the message of repentance. It is the goodness of God that leads us to repentance., and the first move of grace in our life is God drawing us to change.

It was once the common understanding that once a person was discipled, they would be able to take what they had received and give it to another. This is how the church functioned. Faithful men would teach faithful men.

But today there is a difficulty bringing people to maturity. Many are in perpetual spiritual infancy and never grow up or bear fruit. Those who have been in the Lord for years seem to never advance in their spiritual growth. 

If we have received, then why can't we give? Or the real question might be why won't we give? We need to be a good steward to what God reveals. 

In this series, we will make sure our foundation is proper as we learn the principles of the doctrines of Christ.  It's time to dig deep.

We have to awaken to the idea that we are in a spiritual war. We are not wrestling against flesh and blood.  We are fighting demonic entities that have usurped godly creations, and we cannot fight in the spiritual arena with carnal means.

It's time to open our eyes to the spiritual forces around us. We are in a spiritual conquest and there’s a battle raging for our souls.  It’s time to get full of the Holy Ghost and fight like you're going to win. 

We are victors when we are fully dressed in the whole armor of God.
