The purpose of this message is to review what we know, and what is clear from scripture about authority within the Church of God.

Today we are going to discuss and review from scripture the various aspects of the ministry. I think now is a good time to do this.... why?...SO THAT, you might seriously pray for God's blessing and guidance on who will take over the next generation of ministry. Knowing what is important to God in this area of your lives should add detail and specificity to your prayers and help you pray in accordance with His will rather than your own.

Nicodemus said "how can this happen"... what you are proposing is impossible... Jesus says this is what God is doing... He has told you all along... you should have known this... if not then you should be aware enough to accept what I am teaching right now which is based on scripture itself.
Its not about the miracles.

 Jesus began laying the groundwork for a new type of governance; the rule of God (kingdom of God) on earth. It will be a new type of governance not because of a particular organizational structure... it will be a new type of governance in that it will be driven by a new type of thinking.

In this message we’ll explore God’s guidance on how attitude, character, and ethics drive governance. We’ll review governing systems at work among the people of God... from the earliest times right up to [but not including] the inauguration of the Church at that first Pentecost.

Pentecost is not a picture of the final victory over sin and death which we will experience upon resurrection. Pentecost is a picture of the beginning of the long march to victory that is promised to us. We know that promise is good, it will come to pass, because the power of God's holy spirit has been given to us. Victory will be ours because He is in us and we are in Him. We have been placed within His Church, a body filled it with His holy spirit... so we may grow in grace, and knowledge, and love.

There is raw energy and power, that energy is organized [information], expression of God’s personal will. This is the power of the universe… this is the holy spirit which God wants to put in you.

…or did only His body die? Was Jesus… actually alive during the three days and three nights His body was in the tomb?

The first (and essential) step in God's program of salvation for humanity is atonement for sin
