    We have been ministering on the verse found

    in Ephesians 1.10, That in the dispensation

    of the fulness of time that He might gather

    together in one all things in Christ, both which

    are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in

    him:

    We have endeavored to understand that

    unity is not a connotation word.

    It has been said that there are many ladders

    to Christ, but only one ladder to heaven. We

    all have our witness and testimony of how

    Jesus found us, we were lost. However life

    after being born again becomes a journey.

    This journey has a destination, it is how we

    travel and follow the directions to thisdestination that dictate our destiny.

    We must move by self sacrifice and self denial to this placeof coming under the authority of Christ. This will insure thatare personal agendas, accomplishments and accolades willbe for not only the prophetical fulfillment of theaforementioned Ephesians 1.10, but also the prayer ofJesus in John 17

    Often we use these words like self denial, self sacrifice,crucify, mortify and a sense of dread overwhelms us. Wefeel that we are robbed of something good from this life.The dilemma of the christian life is not the words of Jesusbut being caught in the middle. Our struggle lay in ourbeing trapped in our minds about the abundant life, thefullness of the inheritance of the saints, the hope of Hiscalling and the exceeding greatness of His power.

    In short, our very faith, we live in a generation

    where God must be real and a reality to you

    personally for you to continue on and in this

    journey.

    You must realize that there is an adversary, it

    is real and you cant perceive his wiles without

    a real attachment to the things of heaven.

    We spent a few weeks on Interpretation, and

    have started spiritual confusion, and want to

    get into the autonomy of man. These final

    sermons are all related to unity in the area of

    Truth.

    Here are some facts

    1. No person wants to be deceived

    2. How do I keep myself from deception?

    3. You must love the truth

    4. We are all at different places in our walk with God,however revelation is available for those who seek hisface. This is why we currently see differentiations inpeople beliefs, liberties and faith.

    5. Just as natural is to supernatural, so is the word ofGod and revelation. They are separate but inseparable.You must remember as we have been conditioned in

    the area of epistemology or what we can truly know,we have allowed our culture to alleviate the area ofrevelation or that which cant be explained.

    6. Revelation is the supernatural part of the Wordof God.

    7. You have to walk in the revelation that youhave in order to receive more. Hebrews 6.1-6

    8. God is not constricted by time as we are, Hisprogram is an eternal plan and has been pluggedinto generations at His command.

    9. We are in the last days, I cant and wontmeasure days, because a day is 24 hours to me,but the prophetic fulfillment of the Word tells mewe are approaching the end of the church age.

    10. Lucifer always imitates or has a program thatruns parallel with the Word of God and theeternal plan of God.

    1 Corinthians 13.8-11 Charity never faileth: butwhether there be prophecies, they shall fail;whether there be tongues, they shall cease;whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

    For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.But when that which is perfect is come, then thatwhich is in part shall be done away.

    Here is a prophecy concerning the eternal plan ofGod and how that it is in stages.

    Isaiah 28. 9 Whom shall he teach knowledge?

    And whom shall he make to understand doctrine?Them that are weaned from the milk, and drawnfrom the breasts. For precept must be uponprecept, precept upon precept; line upon line,

    line upon line; here a little, and there a little: forwith stammering lips and another tongue will hespeak to this people.

    Results of Enlightenment

    The modern philosophical view hadtransformed God into an alienated externalGod. Consequently why have a God at all, the

    thought pattern became that people hadprojected their own human qualities onto animaginary being that was merely a reflectionof themselves. So mans belief in God is

    nothing other than his belief in himself In hisGod he reveres and loves nothing other thanhis own being.

    Freud ( 1856-1939) who was a student of

    Nietzsche believed and taught that religion

    was a neurosis that bordered on insanity. A

    desire for or from God was based on our

    infant stage of helplessness and our yearning

    for a protector; it reflected the childs passion

    for justice and fairness and his longing for lifeto continue forever.

    The Gay Science (1882) this magazine told thestory of a madman who was crying, I seek

    God, the gainsayers ask if God had run away

    or emigrated. Where has God gone? themadman demanded. We have killed him---you and I , we are all his murderers!

    The deceptive nature of our enemy was quitesure he had struck a blow to the belief andpractice of worship of God.

    This revival, identified by unity and community

    brings the power of God and the church

    experiences an inflow with Christ as the center.

    Persecution perfects the church by way of

    witness and a transition takes place where we

    become more attached to heaven than to this

    earth The Rapture of the Church brings the end of the

    Church age and we finally understand.
