WITNESS

As the message of the Best News Ever  first reaches us we become

transfixed on the Person of Jesus Christ and are transformed by Him.

We are no longer only bystanders to history or only informed about

 the most pivotal event for humanity. This message, the Message of Who God

is and who you are changes everything. This changes humanity and

it also changes your life, because your life never means the same again.

You and your life means so much to God that He came to rescue you

from vanity and futility. He came to destroy sin and death, so you can

live with Him eternally. You do what prophets and apostles have

done. You believe and therefore you will speak. It is inevitable that at

some point you will be asked to explain the hope that lives in you.

Likewise the Bible is not a book of law or history or simply an account

of events past. It is a living word of witness to the True and Living God.

It is all about His Love, for God is love. Moved and led by the Holy Spirit

Who inspired the scripture you are moved to declare the Living Jesus

Christ to a dying and desperate world.The Church and the Christian hear

the voice of the Good Shepherd, the Holy Spirit directs the Holy Scripture

to our hearts. The word that set you free will dwell in you richly so that

you may declare the same word to set others free from fear, from tyranny

and from darkness, because he whom the Son sets free is free indeed and

where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom, real freedom and ‘you will

know the truth and the truth shall set you free’ and the word of God can

not be imprisoned, it is like a two-edged sword dividing the joint and the

marrow, to reveal the thoughts and intents of the heart. The word

that proceeds from God will not return to Him void, but will accomplish

what it is intended to do.

“But we must always give thanks to God for you, brothers and sisters

beloved by the Lord, because God chose you as the first fruits for

salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and through belief in

the truth. For this purpose He called you through our proclamation

of the Good News, so that you may obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus

Christ. So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold fast to the

traditions that you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by

our letter.”

(II. Thessalonians 2:13).

AMEN!

Adopted

The Truth of God, the Eternal Word, LOGOS entered into His own creation to

reconcile the fallen and broken creation to Himself as Jesus the Christ.

He is born of the Virgin Mary as very God and very Man to fulfill the Father’s

will by defeating the Devil, sin and death. In doing this He ushered in the

Kingdom of God where righteousness reigns. The Kingdom is righteousness,

peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

In the Kingdom the New Creation and the New World is based on the New

and Everlasting Covenant through His Body and His Blood. Since Jesus

Christ is very God and very Man, both Creator and Creation, He reconciled

Mankind to God, bringing the two together in union, in  Communion by His

Body and His Blood.

This reconciliation took place on the Cross at Calvary. This is how He

transformed Humanity, Nature and History.

He broke the dominion of darkness.

He brought us Light and Life.

He accomplished our reconciliation. 

He granted us salvation.

He won the victory over Satan, sin and death.

He redeemed us  and brought about our adoption as sons

of the Living God.

He restored His own creation.

He revealed Himself to us.

He fulfilled His mission, so that the righteousness of the Law might be fulfilled

in us , who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

As we are united to Him at baptism and identify with His death, we

demonstrate our death, so we no longer walk after the flesh, but after

the Spirit in the Newness of Life.

This is how we are translated from the dominion of darkness to the

Kingdom of God’s dear Son.

The condemnation of sin in the flesh is the revelation of God’s righteousness.

This starts your New Life, Life in the Spirit.

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
