Even those of us that believe in Jesus Christ and know about the Kingdom of Heaven tend to focus on the acquisition of possession rather than increasing the size of the Kingdom of God. As a matter of fact, the purpose of development of the doctrine of “Name it and Claim it” is to convince Christians that they can use the power of God to acquire possessions.

The Lord is giving us the task to change our focus from ourselves and our preoccupation with the mundane things of this world, and to focus, rather, on our intellectual preparation for making management decisions in the coming Kingdom of God.

Keeping the physical commandments is the elementary level of Christianity. The more advanced level of Christianity involves developing a Christian attitude, which is an attitude that works and hopes for the repentance of others.

Our mission as a church is to provide an effective argument for the historical reality of the life, death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ to our community. It is my job to preach and publish presentations that affirm the evidence that Jesus Christ was a real person, and that the Biblical accounts of Jesus’ activities are as historically accurate as are the accounts of the lives of Abraham Lincoln and George Washington, whose birthdays we celebrated last Monday.

I am not giving you the information about your personal sinfulness to make you feel bad, but to inform you that the way to heaven and pleasing God goes through a completely different route than being protectively defensive about our sinfulness.

None of us are correct about that which we think unless we receive an accurate interpretation of the Scripture from the Holy Spirit Himself. We are never as wrong as when we think that we are right.
