Why sound the Shofar and make Declarations on 3 different days?


Why these 3 specific days:

Passover - Wed April 8, 2020                           6 pm central time

Resurrection Sunday - April 12, 2020       
6:12 am central time

Pentecost – Monday May 31, 2020                
9 am central time

Purpose for sounding and declaring on Passover:

To call on the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to call on the God of Elijah, to call on a miracle working God to demonstrate His Great Power by killing or stopping the corona virus worldwide!

Purpose for Sounding and declaring on Resurrection Sunday:

God wants to reset the churches focus, on the main purpose of Christ's Resurrection and what that Resurrection Power is to be used for in our daily lives. 

It starts with the church repenting for its disobedience to be His witnesses, to be His Ambassadors, to be His ministers of reconciliation, to equip the saints, to disciple the saints and its failure to use all the empowerments of the Holy Spirit to reach a lost and dying world.
( The power and gifts of the Holy Spirit were given to the chuch to be Christs witnesses. We have abused these gifts by hiding out in a building and entertaining each other with them.)



Purpose for sounding and declaring on Pentecost:

If? ( conditional on the church responding) the church will repent and get on track using the 5 fold ministry gifts to train all the saints to operate and use all the power and gifts of the Holy Spirit to reach lost souls we will see a fresh out pouring of the Holy Spirt and Soul Winning Tracts see a Great Harvest of Souls!

Please cover all this in your prayers.

Whereever you are in the world, please join us tonight at 6P.M. as we Sound the Shofars and Call on God to kill the coronavirus.

Shalom

Christian Testimony Book or Testimony Flyer and always practicing loving people


What is the most important part of Discipleship? The most important part of Discipleship is Commitment! Jesus could not have made disciples had they not committed to follow him. The commitment Jesus asked for was simple. Follow me! As people followed him they were discipled. They learned to be imitators of Jesus! The strength of what we teach is also based on commitment! It is not as strong as the 3 year commitment that Jesus required, but it has been proven very effective. We have been able to effectively disciple a couple hundred people over the last 3 years as a result of getting the following commitments! We have found that, if a Christian Testimonies will commit to write out their testimony and commit to share it daily, that this commitment sets the stage for the Holy Spirit to disciple them!

The first thing we challenge people to do in our discipleship teaching is to commit to write their testimony and be a part of a Real Life Stories Christian Testimony Book or their own Testimony Flyer.

 The second thing we do is challenge people to carry 2 copies of the Real Life Stories Christian Testimony Book or their Testimony Flyers in their hand every time they leave the door of their home and every time they get out of their car.

The third thing we do is challenge them to ask the Holy Spirit to help them in the giving away of the Testimony books or Testimony Flyers!

The forth thing we do is challenge the to practice what was taught in that session. In session 1, we taught on As You Go: Love The commitment to carry the Testimony Books or Flyers and the Commitment to Love, As They Go is joined with the commitment to ask the Holy Spirit to help them. This sets the stage for the Holy Spirit to be active in their life!

 If a person is always carrying the Gospel message with them in the form of a Real Life Stories Christian Testimony Book or Testimony Flyer and always practicing loving people as they go, then they are always trusting in the Holy Spirit to help them! This gives the Holy Spirit total access to all their Time and Daily Life! Sons and Daughters of God are led by the Spirit of God!

What we accomplish during our 12 Discipleship Training Sessions is getting a strong commitment from the person being discipled to allow the Holy Spirit to lead them into Living a Witnessing Lifestyle! When the Holy Spirit comes upon us we will be His Witnesses! Watching the 12 Discipleship Videos is Good, but on their own it is not enough to make a disciple! It is the joining together of the videos and the commitment to write, carry and use your testimony that will help you to be a strong disciple of Jesus!
