Kingdom of the World is in simultaneous activity.

  1. Ruled by Satan who is an evil tyrant
  2. His purpose it to kill, steal and destroy
  3. His kingdom cuts people off from God
  4. They suffer loss, death, and destruction. They are held in bondage to sin
    1. Those oppressed by the devil have relationships are in a mess, live under hunger & poverty, sorrow & distress, sickness & pain.

God has invaded the World’s kingdom through Jesus Christ
The church is assigned to tear down the work of the enemy and free the captives. Bring earth into line with God’s will.

The church has believed a lie that we do not have power.
Old church mentality is defensive.

Kingdom mentality is apostolic.

  1. Be trained, learn strategy and see the world changed.
  2. Rescue people from Satan.
  3. Make Disciples and bring them into the Kingdom of light
  4. Do signs and wonders, & miracles showing the glory of God.
  5. Salvation is wonderful
  6. Kingdom is radical
  7. Radical commitment needed.

Two bands are playing at the same time.  Which one will you listen to?

Which music will you play for others? 

What meal will you serve?

What does radical commitment mean to you?
