What if

We believed better

More often for more good.

Had the heart of Jesus?

Had the mind of Christ?

Saw people right in light of God's love and Christ's sacrifice.

We know the love of God, while we were still (dead in sin) sinners Christ died for us,
"No greater love has a man than this, to give his life for those he loves"
We love him because he first loved us.

Now let's replace past tense
and pass from death to life,
believe and receive the present
love of God poured out through the Holy Spirit
and love instructs
and guides
our faith in
a true way
 of living
that we bear much fruit
for God
in Christ
Amen.

Apologetics - imminent frame - what works - way forward

Prophecy  Truth Christ preached  (Paul's way - only power of cross has built in power to save a life… "wow, He died for me…" ) People stop for life and death situations.  This involves you! "Oh wow" Christians have what world is looking for,  but they don't know / haven't realized it... (Eternal love and acceptance (not "unconditionally", rather "covenant-ally")) Meaning purpose significance Forgiveness Peace Joy truth is the subject, yet objective and knowable understandable,  transcendent God made it by ( through ) faith,   by the foolishness of preaching People's rejection of God is spiritual, and expected (carnal mind is enmity with God,   cannot be subject to the law of God,  By nature you were children of wrath,  subject to fulfilling the lusts of the flesh and mind… Eph 2:3 ) you were free from righteousness but slaves to lawlessness leading to more lawlessness (Rom 6:19) (Transcend...
