A New Blog For A New Time

I've been blogging on myspace about what it means to be human. This theme I believe will be the dominate theme for the rest of my life. Being truly human is what God has called all of us to be. Humanity has truly fallen. God is calling us all to be truly His restored people. Evil and sin is in the world. God has dealt with evil and sin in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. So we can now be a restored people. We can learn what it is to live in an era where God is restoring all things.

I hope in this very short blog you can somewhat grasp how big this is. Can you imagine a world with people restored? Can you imagine a place where God's creation is fully restored? Can you imagine a place where people are reflecting God's glory? This is what God has begun through the death and resurrection of Jesus, who is Lord over all. Confessing Jesus as Lord and being a Christian isn't merely a personal religous experience. Jesus as Lord will restore all of creation. This is bigger than a personal religous experience. This will transform the whole universe.

When I first became Christian my faith was very personal. I didn't understand how big God's plans for His creation were. I think part of our message to people is that God is restoring all things. Being Christian isn't merely a personal experience not that it isn't that. It is so much more. God has dealt with evil once and for all on the cross! In a world with so much evil in it, this message needs to be heard. The world is fallen and is in desperate need of the One who restores.

So the purpose of this blog is to talk about what it means to be God's restored people. I will also more specifically discuss how this is played out in my life. I hope you enjoy and feel free to comment.

God Bless
