Jesus used this Greek term, ekklesia, [Greek word] in describing what He was building. He builds it on the Father’s revelation that He is the Son of God. That is, ecclesia [English word] is built upon the revelation of Jesus as God’s Son. The testimony of Jesus is the prophetic spirit: Who He is prophesies […]

The Test of Mystery
Our trust in God must be complete for us to experience completeness. A pathway of progressive perplexity pushes us toward profounder surrender. Expanded revelation opens our lives to more mystery; the more we learn, the more we realize we don’t much. The more answers we receive, the more questions we have because we have enough […]

Rants on HealthCare and Freedom
Let me say up front that any government healthcare regulation or policy that restricts the free exercise of religious belief is blatantly and treasonably unconstitutional. Simple as that. ‘Nuff said. Careful consideration of the present dialogue about access to “birth control” and forcing religious institutions to pay for it, provide it, and support it, by […]

Ecclesia with International Authority
The ecclesia is called together from the kingdom, not the world; ecclesia is called together to receive an assignment and the authority to fulfill that assignment on behalf of the Kingdom of God. The function of the ecclesia is governmental and kingdom cultural, establishing and expanding kingdom authority and culture. In this mode it is […]

Entitlement and Mercy
I have some musing on the subject of entitlement and mercy: simply put, God doesn’t entitle us to stuff even as His children. He treats as true children and we must respond as true children. His covenant with us guarantees the availability of stuff, but not entitlement to stuff. Most people get mercy and grace […]

The Spirit of Rebellion
[Notes from Dr Don’s teaching on “The Root of Rebellion,” Level 3 IMPACT weekend, FreedomMinistry International.] Rebellion is usually identified in Scripture with specific people because of the behavior of those people. Notably, the New Testament rehearses the rebellion of Cain and Korah. The Old Testament identifies King Saul very clearly with rebellion: “rebellion is […]

Word for 2012, Part 2, Tithe, Offering, and Kingdom
In 2012 God will claim what is His. The fundamentals of giving will be an issue with God, and He will make them an issue with us! Ananias and Sapphira did not drop dead because they kept back some of the proceeds of their land sale; they dropped dead for lying, for wishing to appear […]

Subtle Changes with Big Impact, Word for 2012, Part 1
We are beginning to implement the sweeping changes of the past spiritual generation, and the implementation process will bring us to subtle adjustments and updates. These seemingly small adjustments, however, will push us past barriers and into a spiritual mainstream, the fast current forward.
