Henri Nouwen: “Our lives are destined to become like the life of Jesus. The whole purpose of Jesus’ ministry is to bring us to the house of his Father. Not only did Jesus come to free us from the bonds of sin and death; he also came to lead us into the intimacy of his divine life.”
“It is difficult for us to imagine what this means. We tend to emphasize the distance between Jesus and ourselves. We see Jesus as the all-knowing and all-powerful Son of God who is unreachable for us sinful, broken human beings. But in thinking this way, we forget that Jesus came to give us his own life. He came to lift us up into loving community with the Father.
“Only when we recognize the radical purpose of Jesus’ ministry will we be able to understand the meaning of the spiritual life. Everything that belongs to Jesus is given for us to receive. All that Jesus does we may also do.”
Dr. Jim Denison asks: Are you seeking “the intimacy of his divine life” today?
Just 4% of Americans have a Biblical Worldview! JUST 37% of Pastors have a Biblical Worldview! The result is chaos! Barna research.
It makes me sick to see so many crimes being committed by children in Albuquerque and all over America. We are losing our children to the evil one. Satan has blinded many. This is Spiritual warfare. Is Albuquerque lost for good? It just gets worse here. I have no hope that they city will ever be a safe place to live. My hope is always in JESUS! JESUS! Satan does not hide anymore in Albuquerque and all across America, you should be able to see his destruction all over. It’s interesting that my team at KKIM radio was warning about this almost 20 years ago and the same warning was carried over to FGGAM. Not many have payed attention. Most of the Church is asleep, and Satan is having his way with so many. As long-time Pastor Don Kimbro told me years ago, “Dewey, the Church is not baptizing enough people, it will catch up with us.” TRUTH! It has. All hell has broken out in Albuquerque and all over America. Please take care of each other and your children. Our kids are all in their 30’s and 40’s. They are still kids to me! I used tell them nothing good happens after 8pm, best be home by then. The problem now, there is no safe time.
In the U.S., homicides committed by juveniles acting alone rose 30% in 2020 from a year earlier, while those committed by multiple juveniles increased 66%. The number of killings committed by children under 14 was the highest in two decades, according to the most recent federal data. Juvenile crime hurting young victims across major US cities: ‘A vicious cycle’
My goodness Church wake Up! How many children do you have in your Church? How full is your children’s Sunday school? How many baptisims have you officiated over the last year? I had a Pastor tell me last month the Church he was serving at in Albuquerque had only two baptisims in 5 years! As I travel I ask these questions. Stop playing Church! BE THE CHURCH! IT IS CALLED THE GREAT COMMISSION!LEAVE YOUR WALLS HIT THE STREETS! Read this news below on how kids continue to raise hell in Albuquerque:
Albuquerque police arrest 3 teens for carjacking spree
Suspects held, 12-year-old sought for attack on ABQ teen
You can pass all the laws you want, but you cannot regulate morality.
Years ago ago I wrote and spoke on how Satan was destroying the family unit in America! Divorce, drugs, booze, phonography, sexual affairs, crime, gambling and on and on we go and Satan has had his way by splitting up many families. So many children grow up without God’s intended family unit. Many never get the opportunity to go to Sunday School and grow up in the Church. We are all going to have to answer to God.
