Proverbs 29:18 (NKJV)
18 Where there is no revelation,[a] the people cast off restraint;
But happy is he who keeps the law.

Colossians 1:9
Preeminence of Christ

9 For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;

Do we see things from God's point of view? Is what's on our heart, what's on God's? Is the world's populous your mission?

Are you an Apostle? What is and Apostle?

[Jason]

Amen! A pastor I listen to asks it this way: "Do you look through your God-Colored Glasses?".
I believe this vision, or this focus, needs to be re-encountered every morning as we get up and get ready for work or school. What I mean is, yoru vision needs to be prayed over so that you are sure it is inline with God's vision and then prayfully seek His help for completing this vision He has for your life.


I do believe that an Apostle is someone who has actually visually seen Christ Jesus. With that definition, I am not an Apostle.

Well, let's look at what apostle means...Apostle comes from the word Apostolos which broken down translates to apo, means away from and stolos means to send. What is our #1 task as a Christian? To be an Apostle? A Disciple?

Matthew 28
19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

God tells us to go away.

LOL, I guess that is true.. I love how you put it though.. I thought God said something like draw near.. Not go away... :P Hilarious! (sp?)
