This is a short video message (25mins) by Brett Jacobsen which cries to the modern church (those who are in Christ) to flee from carnal kingdoms of religion. (PS. sorry about the bad lighting).

In the “real” world, the recipient of service gets to determine the value of the service received, not the individual providing the service. Demand determines supply, and price. For instance, the customer in the restaurant not the waiter, determines the size of the tip, based on the quality of the service provided. Too often in the church we believe our own press clippings. That is, our own evaluation of ourselves and what is important, bears no resemblance to reality, but we feel good about ourselves none-the-less.

This short video addresses one major issue that causes the church to be carnal and immature according to Paul.

There are many out there who exploit hyped-up ’end times’ theology to build their “ministry”. Others are just miss-led and perhaps have never heard a biblically-sound interpretation of the many passages that fall into the category called ‘eschatology’- or simply put ‘end times theology’.

This 25 minute video by Brett Jacobsen takes a brief biblical look at the end according to what the scriptures say.

Hi all,

If you have been blessed by this ministry (www.christisall.org, www.livingthekingdom.com, Brett Jacobsen) and/or you believe it to be a worthy contribution to the edifying of the body of Christ and the extension of Christ’s Kingdom, then please consider the following short note.

So I can serve the Lord and His people in the way that I do, I need regular financial support. There are a few people who graciously contribute on a weekly/monthly basis to the work. My many thanks go out to them.

However, for some time this amount has not been enough to keep things going. So, I am asking you who are reading this if you would prayerfully consider giving to this ministry either once off or on a regular basis.

My friend Don Atkin has just released a new book called ‘Acts of A New Creation’. It is the third in a trilogy of ‘New Creation’ themed books.

Don is a genuine father in the faith with great insight in the Word and the Spirit. His writings have depth and revelation and yet they are understandable and clear. He also won’t be bullied into extremes on either side of the reformational discussion but rather digs deep for the biblical balance.

You can obtain a copy of ‘Acts of A New Creation’ from his website publications page by clicking here. I believe that he has deals to by two or all three books in the series. His website address is www.donatkin.com

Peace,

Tom Sparks is a good friend of mine and a great Bible teacher/servant of Jesus. I had the pleasure of having him join me and another friend in Myanmar (Burma) a few years ago. We spent time with church leaders in various places around the country teaching and being an example of the Kingdom of God and true New Testament church and leadership. I had been there a few times prior, but I must say that the trip with Tom (and Gary) was an amazing time in Jesus. Hopefully a sign of things to come.

The below article is an honest and real musing from Tom that I just read the other day. I think that some people will really identify with it and benefit from it. Enjoy the read.

Ask just about any Christian these days what the gospel is and the response will more than likely be along the lines of “Jesus died and rose so you can be forgiven and saved from sin and death”. While this is a great truth… and gospel indeed, it is only one aspect of the gospel.

The gospel of humanism

As wonderful as it is, the gospel truth that Jesus can save people from sin and death is not the whole gospel. It is an integral part of the gospel but it is not the full picture.

Hi all, 

I’d like to introduce you to a new website I am launching http://www.livingthekingdom.com.

I won’t explain much here because I’d appreciate it if you have time to look around the site (and give feedback) and see if it is clear to understand, what it’s for etc.

www.livingthekingdom.com will not be as broad as www.christisall.org. It will be more specific in it’s direction to help people who have, are, or will leave institutional Christian religion in pursuit of Christ’s Kingdom and biblical community. It will also have shorter and easier content aimed at all levels of biblical knowledge and Christian maturity. I will continue to post teaching material on www.christisall.org.
