Submission means having the
willingness to voluntarily submit to Christ and also to others in authority.
Thus, we make a commitment and resolve to yield our will, mind, and body for
God's purposes so we can better hear, receive, and obey His Word. It is a call
to submit and a Discipline because it takes our effort, even though we are not
required to do so. When we are submitting to others, we are also submitting and
serving Christ as Lord (Col. 3:23-24)! It is an aspect of the surrender of our
lives to God so we are in His will... Monthly Bible Study

Is
Christ Greater in You? Take up the Cross Part II
Our intimacy with Christ gives
us the confidence and completeness to know and do His purpose. This is the
hallmark of Christian maturity. This means we can have the "fullness" to live
out our new lives by being loyal and faithful to our living Lord. If we are
truly devoted to Christ, we will be devoted to the things of Christ-His
interests, principles, and plan. The key is to realize that Christ is our Lord;
we are to lift Him above our own ideas, situations, fears, hurts, setbacks,
disappointments, jubilations-whatever experiences...
Do not allow anything or anyone to come between you and
Christ! Monthly Leadership
Article The object of this passage is
Christ; He is coming is one of the themes of this Epistle, Matthew 24,
and Revelation. This passage is basically announcing to us that Christ is coming
back. This was comfort for the suffering Christians at that time, but
chastisement for those who were evil and rejected Him (Deut. 33:2; Isa. 19:1;
Zech. 1:16; Mal. 3:1-2; Matt. 10:23; Rev. 2:5; 3:20). It amazes me how quickly we Christians get caught up with programs, new
ideas, and putting out the fires of personal conflict, spinning our wheels but
never giving full attention to what we are all about. More here: http://www.churchleadership.org/ News What is going on? A word from our Director: Life in full-time ministry these
past few years, and even more so, these last few months have been wild! I can't
tell you all that is going on, most of it you would not believe it, as I am
still trying to wrap my head around it all. The rest is too sensitive for the
protection of our people in sensitive areas. This is hard for me to hold it in,
but what I can say, is, WOW! The Gospel, worldwide (not so much here in the US)
is expanding and moving more powerfully than anytime in church history, we are
planting more churches and training more pastors as a single ministry, not to
mention collectively with other originations, than many denominations have in
their history. And if you know me you know I know church history and do not kid
about it, and we are in the midst of it! It is mind blowing and how awesome our
Lord is! Yet, the pushback from the enemy is evermore so intense. Most of us are
facing seemingly insurmountable hurdles with physical, financial and relational
issues. As giving is way down, dealing with massive losses due to natural
disasters and manipulations by evil people, the board has to shut some of our
overseas operations down, while the ministry is expanding exponentially. I and
others face annoying and critical life threatening illness and setbacks, like we
can't pay our bills or help our sick. Which is frustrating, because it seems
many American Christians are more concerned with chasing personalities, fads and
nonsense like watering down the Word of God and not focusing on Christ, while
they miss out on the astonishing work our Lord is doing! I am sure I am not
talking to or about you, because you are reading this! Please keep in mind and prayer that we and our ministry are in need! We are experiencing our own recession, but we are trusting in God's provisions and blessings as we seek to know and serve Him better. Prayer Requests · For more ministry supporters and prayer warriors. · Provision of all our financial, ministry, and family needs! · Safety for our summer missions trips.... · Good health for us, as well as wisdom and resources so we can better partake in the opportunities God has for us, both personally and for the ministry! · For the help, resources, and contacts to come our way with the right opportunities and associations! · For the Lord to use us to minister as we research and develop books, resources, and curriculums for pastors, discipleship, and biblical church leadership development. · Pray for a relief and victory over our spiritual warfare situations! Our Purpose is to point to the Supremacy and Centrality of
Christ, and with your partnership we can expand God's Kingdom by becoming and
developing wholeheartedly, fully-engaged followers of Jesus Christ. If you want
to help support us in these endeavors and ourpastoral training overseas, then
please let us know.
There is no question - we are serving our Lord Jesus Christ because of your prayers, support and partnership, Thank-You! We need your help!
We have a $150K shortfall, and we need your partnership to make
our obligations and keep this ministry going!
