The flavor of this blog is going to change in a dramatic way. In the past, I've used it to keep those who were unable to attend the men's group in the know. We have a few young men who are away at college, and some who've moved away to other cities. It was our desire to keep these people in the loop with us. That will no longer be the case. I will be posting our weekly lesson sheets, as well as some of the more pertinent remarks made during the men's group, but we are moving into a time of reaching, growing, and action. The time for talk is over. If the enemy of our souls can keep us focused on what is wrong with us, he can keep us from using what is right with us. I am weary of the pointing of fingers, and the heaping on of condemnation. I regret that I became part and parcel of the condemnation. Yes, there are times we need to search ourselves and measure our actions in the light of the glory of Christ, but the enemy can take those times and make us wring our hands in guilt and shame. NO MORE!
I could do nothing to be a citizen of the Kingdom, and I will not agonize over whether I am or am not because some man says I'm messed up. The Kingdom is advancing, and I want to be one of those who are at the front of the battle.
WHAT IS OUR NEW STUDY GOING TO BE?
MOVING FORWARD INTO THE KINGDOM!
Check your worldly gear at the door, leave your baggage in the station, grab onto the handrail of faith, and be prepared to be launched into a new dimension of love. We will be propelled at the speed of LIGHT into the Spiritual Kingdom of life. Sickness doesn't exist there, fear is outlawed, doubt doesn't exist, and grace reigns eternal. The promises are ours, yours, and for all men who would believe.
Your Kingdom Come on earth, as it is in heaven!
That was the Lord's prayer, and now it is mine!
