The Promise of Salvation is a Person

The promise of Salvation is not a long life, but a fruitful one. The promise of Salvation is a life that satisfies, which is without beginning or end. That is the promise — not that we have done something to earn it or deserve it. But that we have been given a life that is recognised by God, that is pleasing to God. We have been given a relationship that has been there before the ages — it neither began with man or ends with man. What was promised in Psalm 91, was not a longer lifespan time here on earth, but eternity (a promise of knowing Him) which is the resurrection and the life. It was never something futuristic; it has always been a matter of NOW. The moment man receives salvation is the moment he receives what God has always known, what God has always seen, and what God is most pleased with for all eternity.
There is nothing to receive again. Only to behold Christ and acknowledge every good thing we see in Him as our present reality. 
Father did not give Himself in bits and pieces. That’s contrary to His character. 
Of His fullness we have received. We have received Life (GOD) in all his fullness. We are the fullness of Him in bodily form, that fills all in all.The good news here is that God's word has always spoken of the birth of God’s visible immortal image (JESUS CHRIST (GOD BEGOTTEN SON) that has to be revealed by God's light shining in the heart of man. And God's desire is for man to be transformed into this very image, that God has always known, had always seen and had always been pleased with (because only in Christ would all the fullness of the Godhead dwell bodily) for all eternity.

Message to the Body of Christ

My message to the Body of Christ:  If you approach someone living recklessly from a Christ-like perspective, you do not start with what they are doing wrong. Just hear me out. I know we've been taught, or many of us have been taught to address the elephant in the room head-on. But what did it accomplish? Did communities change? Did those young men or women come to Christ? Perhaps a few, but with what kind of mindset? We wouldn't know. All we know is that they chose Christ right? But is it authentic, real, or genuine? Or is it fear-based. Did they choose Christ feeling condemned, feeling utterly miserable and unworthy? To some extent I won't refute someone coming to Christ feeling unworthy, or feeling ashamed. But, if the way we presented Christ to that person leads them to choose Christ out of shame, or feeling condemned because of what we said to them — then it's not the whole truth. Why do I say so? Because...you start with who they already are — even if t...
