THE SIGNATURE OF JESUS

Jesus was and is a rebel, and His invitation is a revolutionary call to fight for the very heart of humanity.  To be “born again” is, literally, to be “born from above” into a war zone here on battlefield earth. His followers are called into an unconventional war using only the weapons of faith, hope and love. Christ chose the cross, His passion drove Him there, and the cross should ignite a passion in all His followers to follow the heart of their king.  If you are a follower of Christ, then you are called to fight for the heart of your king.  This is not a pristine call to a proper or safe religion.  Jesus beckons His followers to a path fueled by passion... passion for God and passion for God’s people, that is far from the easy road.  “The Way” is all about Love, Obedience, Passion, and Sacrifice... the things that bring a twinkle to our Daddy’s eyes, and filled with risk, adventure, uncertainty, and unlimited possibilities.  And the cost to truly embrace Christ, to embrace the cross, is nothing less than everything we are, everything we have, and everything we ever hope to be... everything!
SAY THIS TO YOURSELF: “HE WANTS EVERYTHING”!
THE CROSS IS THE SIGNATURE OF JESUS.
