A Word from the Pastor...
God is moving into His house! He is in us and toward us. He is moving toward preparing His house for a great reception of souls. You and I are to be the end-times structure that will hold His ministry to His precious harvest, a mass of humanity made in nothing less than His image. Now this could be a little overwhelming to think about in itself, but we have great promises that are yet to be fulfilled.

God has given us wonderful promises in his word. We the children of God will live in the greatest outpouring of his glory and power that has ever been experienced in human history. We are promised a latter rain complete with signs, wonders, miracles, troubles, and tribulations.

So what do we do in the mean time? We must major on intimacy with God and a close fellowship with each other. This is the essence of the gospel. This is what saves us. This is what I believe the Lord is talking about, when he exhorts us to build our lives on the rock. Our salvation is now based upon a relationship with God through the cross of Jesus which gives us a whole new life with God and a spiritual family. The most important thing we can do is build these relationships. This is to be the priority of every child of God.

The Lord commands us to first to love Him with all of our heart, soul, and mind. Secondly we are commanded to love one another as we love ourselves. The Lord considers this "other" love as the actual proof that we truly love and belong to Him. In short we could say it's time we get back to the basics of love, and all the more as we see the Day approaching !

A full return of our hearts to God will result in a fervent love for one another. This is God's way of convincing the world that he is real. It is a costly devotion to His house, this is our worship.
