Tipping ones hat to only one place for any reaa hope..

We live in a world that is desperately in need of Jesus! God has chosen and called every Christian to be a part of the answer to the problems the world faces. He has invested in us all we need to bring hope, salvation, healing and answers to the desperate needs of humanity.
 
Jesus did not come into our lives for us to make excuses, but that we would be adequately equipped to represent Him here on the earth today. Jesus personally sent the Holy Spirit to us to enable us to be “sufficient  (“able; to make sufficient or fit, to make competent, to qualify” – Bullinger’s; “to make sufficient” – Young’s; “to enable, i.e. qualify, make able (meet)” – Strong’s) ministers of the new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life . . . Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty (“the speaking all one thinks, free-spokenness, as characteristic of a frank and fearless mind; hence, frankness, boldness” - Bullinger’s; “freedom” - Young’s & Strong’s).
 
But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed (“changed, transformed, transfigured” – Bullinger’s; “to change one’s form” – Young’s; “to transfigure, transform, change” – Strong’s) into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord” (2 Corinthians 3).
 
I could not agree more, the  need is huge always was sir,  a nation led  by a despot  seeking power is at loss. We're seeing the suicide of a super power. It's deeply troubling  as  is when madness  takes the appearance of wisdom. Is the ole saying.
NW
