We are not alone, we are not left to wander and wonder where we are, who we are, or what we are doing. We are the Ambassadors of Christ. We are sent to this world, this region of Central New York, at this time to tell these people about this Gospel, this Christ, this God, this Way, this eternal life, this universal plan for all creation. It is Christ Himself who compels us to continually proclaim the tremendous plan of God for creation. The reason Jesus sends us out to baptize all nations in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit is God knows the only way to survive the challenge of sin is through total saturation into the person, into the real presence of God.
Sin exhausts the natural body.
Tension, stress, failure, injury, meanness, jealousy, selfishness, etc. Are all exhausting on our bodies. Satan is determined to wear us down through sin, grief, fatigue, and failure. God gave Christ all authority. If Christ has been given all authority, there is no authority apart from Him.
