Millions of believers are unprepared to confront this prevailing influence. Believers appear to be hiding behind the four walls of the church. This must change quickly if the power of God's kingdom is going to be established in the earth. And this transformation toward godliness must begin now instead of later. The disengagement of the modern day church against the onslaught of Satan's kingdom in society should be sobering alarm for the people of God.

Glory of God

God's glory, which includes showing a pattern of uncommon love toward our neighbors, healing the sick, mending the hearts of those in despair, casting out evil spirits and raising the dead, must become normal occurrences in the earth. All believers must become saints of the supernatural, displaying miracles on a daily

No matter how bad things may appear in the world, the power of God, which is a creative power, can put a stop to the most formidable forces of darkness. The very thought of these forces challenging God are laughable. This fact is what must be demonstrated in the world. Moses, for example, faced one of the most frightening situations in the bible: the approach of Pharaoh mighty army from behind and a furious sea that blocked him and his people from crossing to the other side. But this situation between a rock and a hard place was nothing for God to resolves, which He did, by supernaturally dividing the sea and allowing Moses and the people to cross. As with Moses, so is God with us in this present day and age. God is looking for those believers who are willing to demonstrate His supernatural power so that they who see and believe will have hope in a new

    Lastly, there must be a replacement of the power of the Spirit in the lives of believers. No longer do even Christians believe in the miraculous power of the Holy Spirit. They no longer take risks and believe that the miraculous can be done, when God has proved time and time again it can. Modern day believers must restore their faith in the power that Holy Spirit has. The faithful must take risks and believe that the Holy Spirit is greater than anything in this…

    One text that has been not only influential to my understanding of my call and potential vocation, but also informative in my understanding of the historical development and growth of the Christianity has been The Future of Faith, by Harvey Cox. Harvey Cox divides Christianity into three distinct ages that lead ultimately to the current age, which he terms “the Age of the Spirit.” His book explores human compulsion and necessity for faith as well as new trends that are emerging within the church today.

    A beautiful story of love and redemption scored through the passion of a savior, Christianity persists to succeed in influencing lives for the better. One’s rise to Christianity commences with one sensing that life is filled with emptiness, and what does exist, tends to be broken. Hence, one desires a better world characterized by happiness and joy rather than pain and suffering. One looks to worldly things to appease this desire for good, yet indulging in the world only brings deeper suffering. It becomes quite clear that one is in need of something or somebody loftier than the world.…

    As Dever states, “It is the most visible part of Christian theology, and it is vitally connected with every other part” (10). The proclamation of the church makes the Gospel audible for the world to hear but the living together of the church makes the Gospel visible for the world to see. Because of such weighty matters, Dever argues that we all have a great need to a right understanding of the church. He adds that “The church should be regarded as important to Christians because of its importance to Christ” (11).…
