Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.John 17:3Ever wonder what makes the difference between having church and having church? I mean, those glory times, where everything seems fresh, clean, and like God's presence is there as something special, unique, and real? What is it about the special and unique touch of the Spirit that makes every time life-changing?This is life, to know Him and to make Him known. There is no other purpose, there is no other destiny, and there is no other calling. Giftings may come or go, but only through Jesus do we come to know the Father (John 14:6).A man asked Jesus what it took to be perfect. Jesus responded, do the commandments. The man replied that he had, and Jesus said he lacked one thing, that he was to sell all, give to the poor, and follow Him. You see, you can't get anywhere without His heart, you have no life in you if you do not have His, His name, His Character, His Will, His desire. It is in giving everything, absolutely everything, that we receive Him, for we must live as He lived, and walk as He walked. In doing this, we show that we are His disciples, and we will abide in His love.It wasn't for a show, and it wasn't for an institution that Jesus died, but He came and lived as a man for men, that we, men and women, might know His true love, be set free from the deceptions of this age, and come to know true life, Eternal life, Himself.For, there is life in no other, nor is there salvation in any other name than Jesus Christ. Whoever believes on Him shall be saved, and all others shall be damned, even as the scriptures say, in Mark 16:16.For to one, He says come, and he comes, and to another do this, and he does it. The greatest key to life could be summed up in one of Jesus' statements, saying that all of the Father's commands lead to life. Even the command to the cross, though it went through death, lead to life, and we live today because of it. Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Truly I say to you, among those born of women there has not arisen anyone greater than John the Baptist! Yet the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and violent men take it by force. For all the prophets and the Law prophesied until John. And if you are willing to accept it, John himself is Elijah who was to come. He who has ears to hear, let him hear. But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the market places, who call out to the other children, and say, 'We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not mourn.' For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, 'He has a demon!' The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'Behold, a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!' Yet wisdom is vindicated by her deeds. Matthew 11:11-19Living in the Kingdom life is life according to the words of Jesus, the Master. He alone is the one with the words of Eternal life, and to disregard them is to do so at one's own peril. Many are the attempts to rebuild the church of the first century, but few connect the words of the Gospels, the life of faith, and outpouring of His Spirit with the foundation stones, the apostles that Jesus raised up. The church was founded upon Christ as the cornerstone and these men who knew His words, and because of it, it stood through even the shaking of the religous structures of that day.Today is the day to rebuild, to restore, and to reform. It is the day of revolution. In a day when everyone has their own ideas of how to live the "Gospel", we do well to return to the book, and look again at these eternal words from our Lord. Why should we call Him that if we don't? And, if our walk does not end up looking like His, how far has the apple fallen from the tree?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, He was asking His disciples, Who do people say that the Son of Man is? And they said, Some say John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; but still others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets. He said to them, But who do you say that I am? Simon Peter answered, You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.And Jesus said to him, Blessed are you, Simon Barjona, because flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church; and the gates of Hades will not overpower it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you bind on earth shall have been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall have been loosed in heaven.Matthew 16:13-19The Church of God stands poised to make a shift. Many say it is to the right, and many say to the left, but the true Word of the Lord will stand forever. The Church will arise as never before, and learn the lesson of Jesus that mercy is better than sacrifice. Yet, as a pure and spotless bride, she will shine, holy. The true Church belongs not to a man or to an organization. But as Christ said it was He Himself who would build it and as the Scriptures call Him it's only head, it will take the shape of its Master or those who do not will be cut off.When God throws His wedding banquet, He provides for His guests. Yet the one who choses to arrive dressed in less than their best may find themselves somewhere other than where they intended. While those with a meek, child-like spirit, will find, over and over again, that the Kingdom of God is theirs. The true Church, built upon the foundation of the Apostles and Prophets of both yesterday and today, shall arise to be the Bride adorned for her wedding without blemish.What is the church? What is this spiritual being that stands upon the Earth but reaches to the heavens? While she may be many things, one thing is certain: What she once was, she will never be again. And, what she always has been, she will continue to be.It is not in the mind of man that church is formed or conceived, but in the mind of God. Lest we find ourselves go have fallen short of it through unbelief, let us make diligent search to make our calling and election sure, pressing on to possess the promises through His Faith. For it is only the church on the Rock, Christ, His Word and His Spirit, that will endure. Hallelujah! Praise to the Lamb!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. John 6:28-29Sometimes, the most natural seeming things are the most Spiritual, for of a truth, there is nothing done in the natural that does not affect the spirit of a man and everything else all around. As a single decision in Paradise caused the fall, so every thought, every act, and every work, whether of the Spirit of God or of the flesh, touches Eternity, because man was Created by Spirit, and the flesh shall pass away. Whatsoever we do unto the least of these, we do unto Him.If we walk by His Spirit, we will not be gratifying the desires of the flesh. For, as we sow to the Spirit, we reap life, but if to the flesh, we will die. This is the Word we have heard from the beginning, that God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all. He is the light, and apart from Him, we can do nothing.As His Word is in our heart, and we choose His Spirit in preference to our own life, a new things comes forth. The true man, Jesus Christ, shines through, and His life is made manifest in our own.What we will become has not yet been made known, but when we see Him, we shall be like Him, for this is the promise of all that follow after Him. Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, but it has been revealed by His Spirit.

This book was released on 2012-01-11 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Then they will deliver you to tribulation, and will kill you, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name. At that time many will fall away and will betray one another and hate one another. Many false prophets will arise and will mislead many. Because lawlessness is increased, most people's love will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved. This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.Matthew 24:9-14There is coming a day, burning hot like an oven, that will not relent. It will divide and separate the wheat from the chaff, and provoke Israel to jealosy. In that day, one will say to the other, let us return unto the Lord, for perhaps He may still have pity upon us. To all who would hear, it is time that judgement begin at the House of the Lord, and to declere, the Kingdom of God is at hand.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not. All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.John 6:35-40The Kingdom of the Saints in Light is comprised of those who know His Truth and Do it. Apart from Him, we can do nothing, and it is only by His Words that we see life. There is none good but the Father. Only that which is Spirit gives life. It is as we show love, through faith, that the will world change. And, it is only His definition of what love is, as demonstrated on the cross that is right.Jesus told a parable of two sons. Both were told to work, and one said yes, and the other said no. Both changed their minds, and did the opposite. Which one did the will of their father? The one that worked in Truth. Now is the day to be about the Father's business. When we believe, we will work, and those that do not are those who do not believe. The one leads to the other, and in this, we bring glory to the Father by bearing much fruit!Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God. We long to see the days of the Son of Man, but it is only as we Do Truth that the Kingdom is manifest.

Download or read book Beyond the Visible Church written by Florian Klug and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2024-01-27 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Beyond the Visible Church, theologian Florian Klug investigates the Abel motif hermeneutically throughout Christian church history. By showing how the biblical motif of Abel was read and used by representative theologians like Augustine, Bonaventure, Martin Luther, Yves Congar, and others of each epoch, Klug builds the story of the Church’s self-conception and shows how it has evolved over time. By tracing this theological and ecclesiological history and how the motif formed theologians and the Church over time, Klug shows readers a new way to conceive and understand God’s universal will for salvation. By deconstructing and reconstructing the historical occurrences of these ideas, Klug demonstrates that the Church’s self-conception is not yet complete. This unique and ground-breaking study opens new ways forward for Catholic ecclesiology—hope for today’s universal Church.
