 THE PROMISE OF NEW LIFE - the last Day of Unleavened Bread

The Church of Jesus Christ truly is 'His body'. Could it be that the promise in the seven-day Feast of Unleavened Bread is actually a promise to the saints both the 'Dead in Christ' and those of us who are alive, that our bodies would not ultimately see (corruption) but will be raised to immortality at the day of Jesus Christ? 
Spiritual safety and security 
"being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;" 
Philipians 1:6

 This first verse is interesting because it covers the entire wilderness season between our 'exodus' from the world system through personal salvation and our ability to stand before Him faultless on that day when he returns. and "He is not slack concerning His promises." 


But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.  
The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.
Read the whole chapter of 1 Corinthians 15 
 here are some bullet points 

  • I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, 
  • Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,  
  • He was buried. 
  • He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures, 

The Risen Christ is Our Hope for Eternal Life

  • if Christ is preached that He has been raised from the dead 
  • how do you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?   
  • if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ is not risen.  
  • if Christ is not risen, then our preaching is empty and your faith is also empty 
  • Yes, and we are found false witnesses of God, because we have testified of God that He raised up Christ,
  • whom He did not raise up—if in fact the dead do not rise.  
  • For if the dead do not rise, then Christ is not risen.  
  • if Christ is not risen, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins! 
  • Then also those who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished.  
  • If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men the most pitiable.

The Last Enemy Destroyed

  • But now Christ is risen from the dead 
  • the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.
  • by one man (Adam) came death.
  • by one Man (Jesus, the second Adam) also came the resurrection of the dead.
  • For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ (the second Adam) all shall be made alive. 
  • Christ the firstfruits, (is raised to immortality) 
  • Afterward, those who are Christ’s -- WHO (are raised to immortality) at His coming. --WHEN
  • He (Jesus) must reign until He has put all enemies under His feet.
  • The last enemy that will be destroyed is death.

  2, 22, 222, 2222 - Keys to the House of David This Facebook post from Johnny Enlow was sent to me by a friend two years ago and I ran across it again today.  So in good fun, I repost it here.  OK, so the 2's have it. So many of you have apparently been seeing a lot of 222 and 2222 as well and are wondering as to what the Lord might be saying there. Three scriptures that I get for this are: Eph. 2:22,  Rev. 22:2 and  Acts 2:22.  Eph. 2:22 is about us being built into a dwelling place for God.  Rev. 22:2 is about being trees of life that bring healing to the nations.  Acts 2:22 is about being a person of signs, wonders, and miracles.  All three go together and as you see the 222 you are being reminded that you are one that is to carry the power and presence of God everywhere you go.  Life of the supernatural is yours to step into as you host Him. Seeing 2222 at key times is about Isaiah. 22:22. This is the passage about being given the key of David to open and no m

This post is about my reoccurring connection to the Minnesota Miracle and how God has kept the dream alive for a revival in Minnesota that He wants to bring to birth.  October 1971 - Minnesota Miracle Seventeen years old and on my way to a weekend retreat at Camp Courage. There I received the baptism of the Holy Spirit on Friday night with many other young people. The rest of that weekend was supernatural, none of us (over 100 high school and college students) showed up at the dining hall to eat, many of us did not sleep, we sought the Lord continuously for three days from Friday evening until Sunday at Noon . God was present in a tangible way as the Spirit hovered over our camp. We all left there changed by the power of the Holy Spirit.  The speaker that weekend was Dick Eastman he went onto North Central Bible college in downtown Mpls. Monday to lead their morning chapel service, that chapel service lasted for three days! Monday 8 AM - Wednesday 7 PM. The Bible school was

A WRINKLE IN TIME... another JESUS PEOPLE movement?

First the Natural...  The Jesus People Church in Minneapolis begun in 1972, came out of the REVIVAL meetings held 7 days a week for several weeks at Souls Harbor, Downtown Minneapolis in the fall of 1971.  Coincidentally, the congregation at the renewed Jesus People Church now in Rogers, MN set aside Friday, May 2, 2014, for a Jesus People Church Reunion.  They invited all those who were part of the Jesus People Church in Minneapolis during the 70s and 80s; as part of that congregation in the past, my wife and I received a personal invitation to attend. But we did not go the gala event at a ritzy hotel in Minneapolis. Then the Spiritual!  The same weekend, I also received a personal invitation for Saturday, 5/3/14 to hear Cindy Jacobs at the House Church at 2024 Rahn Road in Eagan, MN. She prophesied that night "another Jesus People Movement" to come. As I sat in that "physical place where I had been one of the Jesus People church elders 25 years earlier,
