Today we are one of 7 billion people on the earth and yet we have great value to God.   God has called us and purchased us, we have been redeemed by the blood of Christ and we bear God’s sign.

Christ was attacked for saying that He was the Son of God—that He was God! We are attacked when we teach that we are God the Father’s begotten sons and daughters and that we will become God beings. But what is God, and what will we be? Is God an impersonal blob without form or shape? Was Christ resurrected as a formless blob ? Was He resurrected with a physical or a spiritual body? Does He travel from one place to another? Do angels travel? Will we travel as God beings? Or will we all be part of a great gigantic blob of nothingness?

Glory describes the state in which God exists. But glorification also describes an action of offering honor and praise. How are these two concepts related? How is this relevant to the future of converted Christians?

How old are you? Do you think that you are too young to go God’s Way of Life? Think again! Jesus was 12, when He was in the Temple, speaking to the scribes. King Josiah was 8, when he became king, and he was 16, when he began to seek God.  Does God have a plan for you? What is it?

We must, as practicing Christians, be willing to forsake the world in order to inherit the Kingdom of God.  Pleasing God is rooted on having a generous heart and always striving to satisfy His Will above our own.

As church members we will have tests, trials and difficulties.   We will suffer persecution and those considering baptism must count the cost.  Of course, God’s way of life is all worthwhile because we can have peace now and a wonderful future to look forward to!

It is within this body that we are called to and are to grow in. We must also strive to care for others in this body, more than ourselves.  So what are we all doing to strengthen this body?

Restoration will be the focus of the Work of Jesus Christ as He establishes the Kingdom of God on earth. The Bible reveals tremendous details about this future time when peace and the knowledge of God will fill the world.
