In rejection of God, humanity has formed its own thesis of a world without God. Claiming the universe is self-existing and that humans evolved from another species. Merely existing with the belief that there is no divine purpose and it is up to humanity to save itself. The truth is humanity cannot save itself as it is finite. It cannot escape death, nor change the darkest depths of the heart. Disc...

Humanity defines identity in what we do and as a result we define ourselves by how others affirm us or reject us. God defines His identity by who He is. Who He is defines what He does. His heart’s desire is that no one should perish, to make everything right once again. That all things be restored to perfect harmony and peace. So God made a way for a renewed humanity and ultimately a renewed heave...

Today we see the fusion of heaven in Jesus to earth, and the earth in the church to heaven.

These are...
