With His grace upon us and the Spirit of Truth in us, we share with you what has been purposed to us, so that we may spread his Good News to all who will hear us.
What you are about to read is not our own words or our own truth but the words and truth of the One who created heaven and earth. As John wrote in his first letter describing Jesus, “ That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched - this we proclaim concerning the Word of life.” (1 John)
We find the Spirit of God moving us to open our hearts and reach out to yours in hope that His truth may set you free (John 8:32). Now on how we were living. It certainly was intended to be of good will but, it was nothing more then our own selfish deceptive will. Paul explains it in a letter he wrote to the Colossians (2:8) “See to it then that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ.” We were captive. John also writes. “Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For everything in the world-the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has done-comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever.” (1 John 2:15) We were once of this world. “If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth.” (1John 1:6) We were liars. “Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourself. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in the mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.” (James 1: 22) We were once that person. God says we have been born through love “In love he predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will - to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves.” (Ephesians 1 : 4-6). So love is not learned. But it is faith that is the life long journey. “Now faith is sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” (Hebrews 11) “Hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.” (Romans 5:5)
We no longer here on earth to please man, but to please God. And it is His will that moves us and it is through His love that we reach out to you. The battle is not between flesh and bone but between the spirits of darkness and light that is in each and everyone of us. So what we want to say to you is this. “If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in the spirit and purpose. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better then yourself. (Philippians 2) “Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. (Colossians 3:13)
It is His word we have been created from and it is His word that is the rock that should be the foundation for all to stand. To be fully loved is to be fully known. We want so much for you to have a pure heart, a clear conscience and a sincere faith. Only in Christ can that come. John wrote “This is the message we heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all.” (1John 1:5) That’s what made Christ God and that is now what has made us walk with him. Because. . . We have a lot of darkness in me.
We pray everyday in hope that His Spirit touches your heart the way He has touched ours so we can live with each other in heaven.
With all sincerity in God’s grace,
Revelation
“It is at this time in our lives as we move deeper into God’s ministry that, with the Spirit of Truth in us and the grace of God upon us, we reach out in hope that your heart will open to God’s word so His Spirit can make your life complete. This is our responsibility to our Lord Jesus Christ and to those we love, still love and whom we are about to love.”
