resolution #777.847683022c

TITLE: REVIVAL

SUBMITTED BY: A Follower of Christ

 

WHEREAS, the Creator God has all power and has established the only way for those created in His image to know Him; and

 

WHEREAS, said Creator God has made the way of knowing Him clear through a detailed and accurate account written and compiled in the form of what is known as The Bible; and

 

WHEREAS, the Son of the Creator God was willing and even eager to be obedient to every desire and command of His Father to the point of giving the complete sacrifice of His very own life so that all transgressions and sins would be forgotten by the Creator God as a result of faith and repentance; and

 

WHEREAS, the Spirit is available to cleanse, fill, anoint, empower, convict, comfort, and restore every human that is present on the globe created by the Creator God; and 

 

WHEREAS, those who have personal and intimate knowledge of the Creator God, the Son, and the Spirit have been give the designation of Christians (in honor of the Son of God); and

 

WHEREAS, said Christians have individually been brought into the collective community known as "the Church" which by definition means they are "called out" from the world and "called to" participate in the advancement of the Kingdom of God; and

 

WHEREAS, those who have been labeled the "the Church" have largely neglected their call and command by the Creator God and instead have used their energy to engage in: whining, political maneuvering and manipulation, fights with each other over what is of no consequence to the Creator God, demands that their opinions and traditions be elevated over the requirements of God, a selfish use of "their" money, and a disrespectful treatment of those who are co-members of the Kingdom; and

 

WHEREAS, there is a remarkable absence of the presence of the miraculous on a regular and consistent basis causing the church to reduce the doctrines of: salvation, sanctification, holiness, calling, healing, wholeness, and evangelism to a level that is pleasing and acceptable to them but not to the Author of those doctrines; and

 

WHEREAS, those not in the church have sometimes been accurate in their assessment of the community of believers as being hypocritical, judgmental, and distant; and

 

WHEREAS, there is apparently more than what we are currently living that would be known through: passionate and consistent reading of the Bible, honest and desperate prayer, realignment of all priorities, true brokenness over the lost and a profound hunger for a move of the Spirit of God; therefore be it

 

RESOLVED, that all Christians immediately return to loving God with all of their heart, soul, mind, and strength; and be it further

 

RESOLVED, that all Christians purely love the very next person they come across with the love they are given by Christ in a truly supernatural way to a supernatural degree; and be it further

 

RESOLVED, that forgiveness and relational restoration happens; and be it further

 

RESOLVED, that fear of radical Christ-centered, Spirit filled living and worship be eradicated from the behavior of believers; and be it further

 

RESOLVED, that spiritual growth be elevated over uniformity and each person be valued where they are at while given the tools and encouragement to advance from that point; and be it further

 

RESOLVED, that excuses be stifled and wholeness, healing, and joy be the prevalent atmospheres of our gatherings; and be it further

 

RESOLVED, that Christians passionately repent, powerfully obey, and faithfully pray until they are confident and others aware that THE KING HAS BEEN GIVEN HIS PLACE AS LORD THAT THEY HAVE ATTEMPTED TO CLAIM AS THIERS SO THAT HIS WILL AND PLAN IS THE ONLY OPTION FOR THEIR BEHAVIOR SO THAT HIS STRENGTH IS IN THEIR ARMS AND LEGS, HIS COMPASSION IN THEIR HEARTS, HIS KINGDOM THEIR PRIORITY, AND HIS RENEWING GRACE IS OVERFLOWING FROM THEIR LIVES; and be it further

 

RESOLVED, that the above noted resolutions be expected as the norm effective immediately. 

 

 

Just an Idea,

 

Pastor Dave
