Just started digging into this phrase. So much here that I have not sufficiently thought about prior to now. Trying to do this topic some justice. Watch this space, I think this perspective is critical as we enter the roll up to His return.
This is a page I have collated from a message Ian and Jane McCormack shared recently at Hope Centre. Unfortunately it was not recorded, however they have preached this at other venues and I attach the video link of their message.
I have just edited the "Gospel?" page, again. If we fail to really grasp the core pieces of what this word means we will, I believe, miss the intent and then the reality of what and who we are meant to become.
"... the real problem of the Christian life comes where people do not usually look for it. It comes the very moment you wake up each morning.

The internet is not a safe place. It seems to become more disruptive each month. Spam, mal-ware, now ransom-ware and attacks on servers and services all over the planet.

It's been a while since I've posted any news updates. A lot is happening in the world of 2015, much of it could be alarming if we focus on it. There is also much happening in the Kingdom of God, light is increasing and the yearning of God's heart for His creation kids to walk in His power and Spirit has never been more apparent.
