A NATION:
1. A relatively large group of people organized under a single, usually independent government; a country or kingdom. ... 2. A people who share common customs, origins, history, and frequently language; a nationality, sometimes without a physical border, state or land to call home.JESUS: The One and Only Son of the One and Only Living, True, Real and Alive God. The God of abraham, Issac and Jacob, the founder of Israel, architect of all creation, the friend of Moses. Prince of Peace, The Messiah, the only savior of all mankind, the Lord, King and Judge of all the earth, hearts of mankind and the heavens.THE JESUS NATION: All people on this earth who belong to the Kingdom of God, a government in the heavens with citizens still on earth, strangers here, not to settle down and make an earthly kingdom, but part of the culture, trying our hardest to live in obedience with the morals/customs of the Bible and conviction from the Holy Spirit, we come from/share the same origin/history as sinners/once enemies of God that have all been saved by grace through faith in Christ Jesus and we now all share the same Lord and King, ruler and creator of all things, Christ Jesus. We are the Jesus Nation. Still here on earth for one purpose to be light among darkness, to be the vessels that enemies of God may see His love in us by our actions, to be the physical voices that preach the one true Gospel, to be salt that will keep this earth from rotting, all of this in hopes that some enemies of God might turn to the Him, the living God and Make Jesus Christ their King, their Lord, their Savior and their Friend. We are The Jesus Nation .This ministry "The Jesus Nation" sends and has people all over the world seeking, knowing, hearing God and traveling the earth to start churches, ministries, visions, etc... where people study the scriptures, worship the Lord, seek him, hear his voice, Preach the Gospel, teach the scriptures, live by faith and go produce a hundred times the fruit they first had. We train and send out teams and individuals around the World and in the U.S.A. to serve in churches, ministries, Pastors, peoples of all Bible believing denominations / fellowships throughout the Body of Christ. This is a movement ran with order and organization, yet without the so growing American business corporate church doctrine of today's age. This ministry is not ran by stealing from/manipulating people for money, building giant facilities for entertainment, not under the authority of one man who desires and tries control the people, this is not a ministry or vision built by man that will not endure the fire, but one being built by God through people on their faces before God listening and hearing his words, crying out day and night, meeting daily for teaching, worship and prayer, not compromising the truth for false doctrine and teachings, trusting him for finances, giving to the poor, Pastors/teachers/evangelists trusting in God for money not their congregations, giving to missions and going/sending out an army of youth throughout the world with sound doctrine and always we " watch both our doctrine and life, persevering in them that through the Gospel message we might save both our hearers and ourselves" See James 4:16 .The unltimate Goal being that all people come to know the living God and His son Christ Jesus intimately and Personally, while serving in/with, being part of and loved by His Body of believers, His Nation of People, The Jesus NationThese people traveling the world even now are no longer being held back by financial security, doubt and fear. They are trusting God for their daily manna, daily bread, not begging or fund raising, but serving faithfully and obeying His voice. So often we fear going to serve the Lord because we are not sure if it is what he has called us to do, ussually because of finances. Yet rarely do we think twice when we commit to school, a job, a vacation, etc.... Why then do we so often not go do the Lord's work. We are all called to serve by Christ through the scriptures, The Word of God. We should go unless told otherwise. If your family was going to Hawaii for Christmas you would not think twice, yet when God opens a door we rarely walk through. Why are we so ften the servant that buries our talents because we fear not walking directly in God's Will, yet every day we walk around not thinking twice if all we are committing to is really what he desires. We fear man. We fear our parents, pastors, friends, society, not being financially stable, our culture more than we fear God. We surround ourself with teachers and pastors that tell us what our itching ears want to hear, yet we ignore the straight forward truth in the Scriptures (Bible). we find a few verses that fit our needs and ignore the full context and message of God's Word. Have we not died to our lives, our wants when we came to Christ? Were we not baptized and reborn? Did we not say Lord forgive me of my sins and now my life is yours? This is like a wedding vow, but much more serious. It is to the real living God. Why then do we wake up and serve ourselves, our culture, our society and few things change. we have made it a doctrine of luxury and financial prosperity. God forbid we might give up our things or our life for another soul? can you taste my serioys sarcasm? Believe me what I have wrote here will disturb many pastors. What I do not wish to do is divide well meaning pastors from you the readers, but i tell you Christ came to divide the true from the false, the truth from a lie. So i tell you to seek out the scriptures and see if what i preach is true or not. I believe you will find it sound and right doctrine. beware of a person, a pastor that might lead you to a few verses to defend his power or doctrine. read the Bible, seek God and you see if what i speak is true. God is wanting to purify, rise up and unite the church, those who are truly willing to trust him and live in His truth.Please send us your prayers, leave comments, ask questions, we will send your fellowship volunteers and servants if you need the help with washing dishes or preaching/teaching, if you want me or someone else to speak at your fellowship, contact us.This is our Mission: Uniting the churches (Christians) to be the church, a nation of people, united in Prayer and Spirit to share the Gospel, love people unconditionally, teach the scripture, send out each other to serve the world, all for the purpose of building the Kingdom of God. In short teach and equip Followers of Christ to be servants rather than judges. Lovers rather than hating, fearing and doubting. Seeing Christians serving, loving, giving regardless of anyones religion, being a light to the world not a darkness. To be like Christ, not like American Christian tradition.Dont knock us until you hear out our hearts, were not political, we don't fit in your box of stereotypical Chrstians. We believe and know Christ is the one way, annointed savior of the World. We know God has unconditional love for all humanity. We know it is the churches job to stop our holy huddles, our christianese talk, our worldly physical and financial personal kingdom building, our condemning judgements on the non-believers who dont even know Jesus and that the body of Christ, the church world wide, must go out and be light in the darkness, speak in terms and communicate words that bring edification and revalation of Christ to the world, live and minister as if we are travelers or ambassadors to God's Kingdom in this foriegn land and realize our enemies are not the non-believer, but satan who is deceiving the world. God is doing a new thing and it doesn't look like what we call right wing politics, it is not about an earthly kingdom, but His spiritual kingdom in heaven and in our hearts. The only reason the church is still upon this earth is this: that we may shine, preach and live the truth, the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and point the World towards Him and His Kingdom that is not yet to be built physically on this earth today. But is eternal in our souls and soon to come in the heavens and on a new earth. Why then to we live in a way as if we were setting up camp, cities and fortresses to defend and hold onto things that will pass away soon. Have we not, the churches, the body of Christ, been decieved to call fear and financial security wisdom and distort scriptures to fit what our itching ears want to hear. Why not are we giving up our lives for our friends, for our neighbors, for our enemies. Why still do we desire to live for our own benefit here now upon this earth. Woe to us, the American church(es). Let us turn and live for Christ, as Christ set an example for us and taught us. And with His spirit that leads us not away from his teachings and example but to be like him in every way for the sake and hope that the world that God so loves, would turn to him and change their evil ways. Was it not his love and sacrafice that drew us to him. Let us stand up for truth, yet not live as hypocrites or condemn those who know not the truth. we are not to condemn the unbeliever for sin. We are to love and serve everyone unconditionally in truth and power that all might see Christ Jesus, savior and king, inside of us and believe upon his name.Thanks for hopefully being open-minded and non-judgemental. Not all who say they are doctors can perform surgery. Not all who profess christianity are followers of Christ.It is time for The Jesus Nation to unite across the world and live for Christ. "I have come to give you life and life abundant" - Jesus.A nation is a people group that shares culture, they dont need a chunk of land to be a nation. We, the body of Christ, are Jesus's nation. We are the Jesus Nation, part of the Kingdom of God, sons, daughters, hiers. We must stop giving glory and worship to temporal governments, church denominations, pastors, people, man made organizations, etc.... not just here in Oregon but all around the world God is starting a reformation of the church. God is moving and calling us into 24 hour church. Not through paid programs and schools but the body, the nation of Jesus meeting, praying, seeking the Lord, Loving, going out, giving of themselves, giving their whole life (not just a week or a year), but dead to this world and its way, nailing our dreams, desires, passions, lusts, sin, goals, time, careers, titles, security, etc... to the cross and seeking Jesus intimately, passionately, to know the giver, the lover, the prize. God is calling us to him, not to his gifts or plans or us, but to him as a church, as a people, as a nation. then he will pour out gifts that will be used to bless each other and him. but God is trying to show his church the goal, the prize, the longings and passions o our hearts must not be for his gifts, ministries, temporal hings, but he is the prize. our faith and relationship with him is the top of the mountain and the satisfaction alone. All else is temporary. rise up church and die to this life and world, so that you may live. do not be decieved many people gather together to hear what their itching ears want to hear, twist scripture and have made up a doctrine that fits the American way, this worlds way. God's ways are not our ways, God wants us to trust him alone eveyday. rise up church, be free, live the Word of God fully. to him who has ears to ear, let him ear.----- Thank you and God bless...
