EVOLUTION?
Is it possible that man should evolve to a being who takes the lives of even his own offspring?
SOCIETY
If leaders court the ungodly we must not be surprised if we live in a society governed after the likeness of their father.
FAMILY BUSINESS
The mission statement of God's business is that of the redemption of man and nature, both renewed to serve Him, the work of creation restored.
No man is exempt from serving his time, his task to tell the story of God's faithfulness in bringing salvation to His world in the person of His Son, given over to death to redeem hostile humanity, risen again to bring His children home to a reconciled Father.
The only business to last forever.

HOLINESS
The pursuit of becoming more conformed to the likeness of God's messiah son, our kinsman redeemer, is the only progress we should countenance.
SADNESS
The saddest sight in this world is the sight of an 'unredeemed' Christian. They are anathema to God.
TAKE MY YOLK....
We are to be harnessed to those alone who bear the load of redemption of man and nature.
HEALING
We were created to be a dwelling place of the likeness of God on earth, man in His image. Unwillingness to submit to God's order, disobedience, stripped us naked and wounded us, bringing self-engendered diseases in its wake. Fear overtook us and broods over our existence.
Healing the body and mind seeks to restore this dwelling place, becoming a meeting place for God and man, until we gain the perfect one, fully complete. We yearn for this completeness and seek a 'heaven-made house' but our earthly bodies have boundaries set by our man-madeness, hedged in by our falleness and mortality.
A perfect, immortal body is one of the fruits of the Messiah's obedience unto death; the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, the promise that it will be ours too, when the sons of God are made manifest.
Romans 8.
