The terms ‘Kingdom of Heaven’ and ‘Kingdom of God’ are used synonymously, and are referenced in relationship to the eternal abode of the those who have died in the faith, and gone on to their reward. In some cases they are being used to speak of future events and a utopia that will be established when Jesus returns to set up His Kingdom on Earth.

There is a difference between the ongoing work of the apostolic/Kingdom ministry, and the Apostles doctrine. Going where we are sent includes preaching the gospel of the Kingdom, sharing our story, and doing life with the people. My concern is we have reduced the gift and grace to powerless apostolic doctrine without foundation. The full comprehensive plan of salvation includes Holy Spirit baptism, healing, and deliverance. We must be born of water and of the spirit in order to see and enter the Kingdom.

If you are still serving and promoting an angry, vengeful, and vindictive God, then you may want to take another look at the price of redemption. Yahweh the Father sent Yahshua His son to show us the way back home, and then fulfilled every promise He made concerning His return on the Day of Pentecost. Selah!

The "Adam gene" is a concept often associated with the Y-chromosomal Adam, which is the most recent common ancestor from whom all currently living humans are directly descended patrilineally. This term comes from the biblical figure Adam and refers to the male counterpart to the mitochondrial Eve, the most recent common matrilineal ancestor. Y-chromosomal Adam lived thousands of years ago and is estimated based on genetic analysis.

These are watershed and benchmark moments in both the Ekklesia and Kingdom. The question is, will we continue to foster and support what we know is not working that well, or will we leave the security of safe harbors in order to navigate uncharted waters?

The reality that I had a life-changing encounter with Yahweh on the evening of June 14th, 1970, is something worth repeating. The truth is, life-changing does not begin to speak to what happened. As I reflect back over the past five plus decades of service to the King and His domain, I attribute the early years of my walk with the Sovereign, with the son I am still becoming today.

If our oneness was not important, Yahshua would not have declared and decreed it prior to His death, burial and resurrection. If our oneness is optional then we will never be one. My question is, how can we continue to support, foster, and even celebrate our division and relational dysfunction?

The topic of spiritual growth and development has been broadly spoken to in many essays, articles, and books. However, I would like to speak more directly to the four phases of my life and journey with the Sovereign. The first phase was all about me. The second phase was all about me and Him. The third phase was about Him and me, and the fourth phase has and is all about Him.

Building something new involves preparing the site for the foundation and building on the foundation according to specific plans/schematics or blueprints. Now, think about all of the above as it pertains to the house that Yahshua is building, which is His Father’s house.

In this time of acceleration many of his sons are coming into a better understanding of the fulness of time, the consummation of all things in him, and it will represent a more suitable administration than we have known.

The divine enablement of Yahweh is directly proportionate to the measure of Messiah’s gift operating within us. It is that measure which determines our spheres of influence and Kingdom Jurisdiction.

We are sons of the same Father and brothers of the same family, and we all have a place at the table in the Father's house. We are houses and families who agree with the prayer of Yahshua in John 17:21-26, and who fully embrace the Father's heart concerning our oneness in Ephesians 4:1-6.The Ekklesia and Kingdom are one in every locale and region around the world.

The Feast of Ingathering and the last great day is not about world harvest or the second coming of Yahshua. The question in all of our minds should be what ingathering should we be celebrating, and what does the last great day mean to responsible Kingdom Citizens? There is a great spiritual awakening taking place right now. The sons (Huios) of Yahweh are waking up to the reality of who they are in Messiah.
