Culture Keys

Pastor Ronnie continues the Perfecting the Saints series, reminding us that our call is rooted in love.

As we learn more of God’s Word and walk in closer fellowship with Him, we begin to develop our beliefs into convictions…and Our lives become controlled by our convictions. 

Pastor Ronnie continues to explore the concept of becoming complete, mature and whole in the perfecting process.

Ronnie Harrison returns to Ephesians 4 as we mature those we lead to effective ministers of the Gospel

Unity is critical in the life of the church (INWARD), critical to the church’s testimony (OUTWARD).

Jesus prayed that we would be one; and we are spiritually one in Christ, but He prayed that we would be manifestly one, demonstrably one because of the love that marked our relationships in this world. 

The SPECIFIC JOB that we are called to within God’s Kingdom is a “WAY OF LIVING” that invites us into PURPOSE that releases POWER.

God is calling for what He has placed within the life of each individual in His Church. Those GIFTS must be activated so that the END TIME HARVEST can be reaped.

Because the apostles were around Jesus constantly, they had the unique position to both hear what Jesus said and observe how Jesus acted. This “hearing and seeing” is crucial to any discipling relationship.

Teaching, or instruction is an important component of discipleship.  We must train those we lead in the Word of God and show them how to live lives that glorify Him. 

This is the way that the Kingdom grows and multiplies…Disciples making Disciples who make Disciples!

Until we “feel” deeply the burden to respond to the call of God, and our eyes are opened to the darkness of our world we will never “GO and MAKE.”

The Church has mastered the call to “come”- but are we engaged in the Kingdom Mandate?  As leaders, are we consumed with the Kingdom Call?

Locks only keep out that which is supposed to be kept out—they provide an airtight BOUNDARY that can’t be broken. BUT locks are no boundary to those who have THE KEY!

God is a God of PROCESS—and there is a process to activating the Kingdom in our lives. That process is revealed in (Matt. 16:13-19)  REVELATION,  CONFESSION & TRANSFORMATION.

Life in the Kingdom is about returning to God’s original purpose for man – which is revealed in His creation of a garden and in His DELIVERANCE of the people of Israel from Egyptian bondage.

Your EXODUS will not be without RESISTANCE!  The Children of Israel came to a moment when they a MIRACLE…they were trapped and hemmed in on all sides.

In the Kingdom there is DELIVERANCE that leads to FREEDOM!    “The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears, And delivers them out of all their troubles. The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart, And saves such as have a contrite spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, But the LORD delivers him out of them all.” (Ps. 34:17-19 NKJV)

In the Kingdom GOD IS CALLING AND SENDING MEN.  We are in a season in the body of Christ where we are directing people to "COME"… but we are not directing people to “GO!”

Original Intent, the picture painted in creation. Man’s disobedience caused a separation from God and His purpose—man was locked out of PURPOSE, removed from his POSITION, and separated from POWER.   ~The CROSS gave man a bridge back to God…back to God’s PURPOSE, back to our POSITION, and back to the POWER!

(Luke 2:49) “And He said to them, “Why did you seek Me? Did you not know that I must be about My Father’s business?”

In the Kingdom there is SEED and in the Kingdom our BREATH is His SPIRIT.

God delegated the DIVISION OF LABOR and the DECISION MAKING RESPONSIBILITIES concerning the earth-realm to mankind.

God gave revelation concerning what the Kingdom would ultimately look like in His work of CREATION.   “And God SAID…” Genesis 1:3 In the Kingdom the King's VOICE can be “HEARD.”

Christ came with the purpose of revealing WHAT LIFE IN THE KINGDOM LOOKS LIKE while living it out in front of us - and then hand off those REALITIES to us.
